A bit late I know but last Saturday the 1st of August my beautiful baby girl had her first birthday. We had planned to have a lovely bbq with friends and family so imagine my disappointment when we woke to rain. So we ended up inviting family for lunch and friends for tea relying on the George Forman and the oven to cook our meat! (and then to rub it in Friday and Sunday were glorious sunshine!) Being as she only turned one Megan as oblivious to it all!

This is a photo of Megan in her jammies wearing her lovely tutu and just in the background you can see 'Lottie' her
Cabbage Patch Kid wearing her tutu aswell. I had these made especially for them buy the wonderfully talented Emma. She makes tutu's for hen nights, fancy dress etc ... this was the first time she had made them so small ... you can check her out on Facebook at
Tutu's at Princess Palace. Moo was saddened to find her was not the bearer of a new tutu but got over it quick when he was presented with a new
Dino Push along!!
On her birthday Megan weighed .... 21lbs 5.5oz (fattie!!) and the competition was won by
Michelle Thompson with a guess of 21lbs 6oz! Congratulations to her and her
pre-filled bags is on it's way!
Luckily after Megan's party mum suggested she take Moo home with her for a few days so Megan and I could have some girly fun time. Yay!! 3 days without Moo and guess what .. it rained everyday!! So we had indoor girly fun!! Then ironically today our first day back with Moo and the sun shone all day!! After hearing the end of a converation last night Moo decided today he must have 'hot chocolate'. Now her has never had this before so I was dubious as to if he knew what it was. We decided to go see the animals at
Honeybrook Farm. We saw the cows, ducks and pigs, did some pond dipping and then went to the cafe and bought a 'hot chocolate' not just any old 'hot chocolate' it was topped with marshmallows and cream! The three of us shared the cream and marshmallows yummy .. then came the actuall hot chocolate (which was now tepid) Megan loved it (she's a fattie sweet tooth) but Moo was bitterly unimpressed and asked flattly for his 'water please'! I did feel a bit sorry for him after hors of talking about 'hot chocolate' he didn't even like it!
Right enough of my ramblings for today ... will blog better next week!
