Satisfactory Six

BB’s birthday didn’t go quite as planned. her cousins had chickenpox, and she had been v excited about them coming
However, we got up, and she was v happy to see presents in front of the fireplace, and opened a few of them, planning to save the rest. SHe liked the craft kids, was overjoyed by the chocolate bar [grin] adored the sylvanians and was excited by the lego – see she didn’t save any of the presents I was v pleased that I could watch her open the sylvanian windmill from my sister without sobbing. obv used up the sobs last night. She also loved the dinosaur duvet set and matching fleece blanket. All in all v successful!! She and SB got started putting the windmill together and playing a happy game, and were rather put out when we interrupted, until we said it was to see a film.

We went to see ‘despicable me’ in 3d, and we all enjoyed it. TBH, I loved it. It was a fun film, with a giggling premise and only a couple of moments of pathos. i actually laughed! BB was snuggled against me too, which was nice . I would def recommend this film.

After that we returned home and chris’s parents came across to give BB their present – a fab doll. BB has asked for a doll on and off, and has gone through dolly episodes before, so we suggested this, and she is absolutely delighted, playing with her for ages. made SB play more with her doll as well. both are from playmerrily – BB and SB so we enjoyed watching them play and have fun. birthday tea was BB’s choice of cheesy pasta and then birthday cake. By then she [and SB] starting to flag, so it was a bit of a tired and waily BB that we took to bed – though she denied this

Happy birthday sweetheart
