HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY LITTLEST BEAR. ELEVEN TODAY.
Huffle and I were woken by footsteps in the loft. He thought it was a very big mouse or raccoon but I knew it was Small looking for wrapping paper to wrap his little brothers birthday present in.
When we got up, Smallest opened his cards. He had eight altogether, mainly through the post. He thought it was funny that some of them were addressed to ‘Master’. In his eyes, a Master was Yoda!
Next he opened his presents. He loves glow sticks and we bought him enough to last him 36 days. He likes to hang a different one each day. I made him a succulent pot and decorated it with animals and windmills and a mushroom. He was very surprised with it but he loves it. He had a solar frog for his garden, some LEGO mini figures, sunflower seeds, a tee shirt and chocolate. He asked for a watch but it hasn’t been delivered yet. He had a huge LEGO set from Grandma which he helped to buy and they also bought him some Stoke goodies which I will bring home with me. Moo bought him a remote control helicopter and Small gave him a mug cake and his wooden ‘eleven’ numbers. Aunt Pear gave him money and he is thinking what to spend it on.
For breakfast he requested croissants and pain au chocolat. I told him we hadn’t made the cake yet and we had to make it this morning, he wasn't sure but he didn’t really believe me and we presented it to him mid morning with a chorus of Happy Birthday. Grandma and Grandad Facetimed him and sang a very strange version of Happy Birthday and showed him his Stoke goodies. HB also sent him a weird rendition of Happy Birthday. He had a multitude of messages from friends, family and acquaintances.
He built his mini figures and started his mammoth LEGO while Huffle and I made a pass the parcel. We also finished our Wizard game that has been going on for three days now. Smallest won.
For lunch we had a slice of cake and then we all went out for several games of Pool (Smallest’s idea).
Today we had two tables and played each other. I won overall with four games. Smallest and Small won three games each and Huffle won nothing. He says he was too busy coaching but.............
On the way home we popped to a friend of mine who lives nearby. Small is going to cut her grass for her and we wanted to introduce them and see what needed to be done. It seems he might have some extra work there too with some tidying up of Winter stuff and raking. She has already decided Smallest can take over from Small once he is old enough. Perfect!
Back home, Small’s pizza dough he made earlier had risen well and while Smallest had a brithday bath, we made the pizzas for tea which we ate in front of TheGreatBritishBakeOff.
Afterwards we played Pass the Parcel. Very funny. We took it in turns to stop the music. Forfeits included laughing like MrsChristmas, shouting I Love You Cowboy Kev, cuddle the birthday boy (which Smallest got), wearing Smallest's pants on our head, sweeping kitchen, making a drink, singing, patting tummy and head. We all won mini eggs and Smallest won a frog on a bike for his garden.
Another lovely day. Weekend now and Monday off.
