A Birthday to celebrate

It was Kevin's birthday yesterday. We had a very lovely relaxing day. I made his favourite dinner a sponge cake. This year I also picked his present all by myself. I got him a barrometer. He loves it and keeps checking the temperature because that's pretty much all that changes around here. Here are some pics of our day.

Unwrapping his locomotive from the girls. A Farish B1.

We always do presents in our bed. Jessica is giving Lisa a cuddle.

The sponge I made for him.

Hannah enjoyed the food as always. These are her Tim Tam hands.

Jessica and I played on the floor and Kevin took some photos of us. She blows me away with her beauty.

Lisa found the day very exhausting and fell asleep on the floor.

There are a few photos taken of Hollie but they aren't very good. I'm glad Kevin had a lovely day. I love sharing his birthday with him.

A card and a birthday

Jessica turned 2 yesterday. Where did the time go? I bet everyone says that as their children have another birthday but really what happened to that time?

I decorated 2 cakes for her. One for Playgroup and the other to have here at home. Dorothy the Dinosaur is her favourite so that's what we put on her cake. Not at all what I wanted but it did the job. As Kevin said, everyone that matters knew what it was. Everyone under 5. She liked it so that is all that matters to me. She had a wonderful day and was so exhausted but was too tired to go to bed. (They are supposed to be having a sleep now to compensate for yesterday but all they've done is played and now they are up and really really grumpy.) All three girls were up during the night so I was not a happy camper. Yes camper for real as I am camped out in the lounge room while the out laws are staying. (Hi Mum) I also made Jessica's card. Wasn't a little girly card but it did have roses on it for Jessica Rose.
