Happy Birthday my little Riley Roo!
We had Riley's birthday yesterday and after a Church ladies Christmas evening I rushed home to do a quick birthday cake jobby. Not great.. I forgot how small the shop cakes were and didn't have time to make one.
He loved it anyway! Especially when I put the candles in and the pretend fire in the tent actually caught on fire. :o)
That's on purpose milo down the side there..You can't dig holes and not have some go down the cliff! That's a pile of rubbly dirt next to the hole.
We had lunch at Nanny's
.. and enjoyed the cake.
He got three really corking presents that has kept him and Lucas entertained for the last couple of days (and many more no doubt): A cuddly doggy that looks like Uncle Andrew's dog Daisey from Mummy and Daddy (he called it Daisey or Biccy), then a purring, trumpeting, "awwww"ing elephant that moves, sits and even chuckles (we have to take turns with this one as it's lovely fun to cuddle) from Nanny and Grandad and from Farmor and Gramps he got a mimicking chipmunk that sometimes mimicks your voice straight back, sometimes high and fast and sometimes slow and low.
Lucas was trying really hard to be cross today and it repeated back his cross words in superfast chipmunk. So he had great fun getting angry (pretending as none of us could keep the smile off) and telling it off and it telling back.
