Alfie having birthday ice cream.

He had a great party on Sunday and a lovely birthday on Monday.

All 3 grandparents, plenty of cousins and uncles and aunts and a select few friends.

Mummy icing the cake with Alfie: unicorn poo icing.

Alfie is dressed as a pirate. His favourite part of the two days? Opening presents of course!

I have lots more photos, but they all have other children in, which of course one tends not to post these days. In fact the photos we get from nursery are always few and far between for the same reason.

suffice it to say, great fun was had at the party, with arts and crafts supplied by my sister Yvie: paper chain making, star decorating and biscuit icing.

pass the parcel and egg and spoon racing. (With plastic eggs!)

Thanks for all the good wishes – Alfie absorbed them all.
