Thank you Nanny and Grandad for the star present. Oliver and his big sister Katya LOVE this gift. Its a big indoor toy, but this time of year when there isn't too much outdoor play possible it is wonderful. They really use their imagination too. I asked Oliver where he was driving to yesterday and without a second thought he said " to Disneyland". Of course where else would you go if you had such a cool foot pedal car?
Here is the dude himself! I love this picture because this is really what he looks like right now. He is such a generally happy chappy. Ok so he does like to scream on public transport, Oh and he does frequently wake up at 4:30 am repeatedly uttering the phrase, "I don't like to go to bed.", in a happy sweet voice in my ear as I try to get him to go back to sleep in bed with us. That is actually sweet just not at 4:30 am.
Ollie, Katya, and Teigan opening the cool legos from Gramma and Bampa! Katya's eagerness to help Ollie open his gifts faster reminds of a story I once heard about a big sister that couldn't control herself and had to "help" her younger brothers and sisters open their presents faster. I don't know who that big sister could have been? Any ideas?
"Superman", sung in a sweet raspy voice. He is truly a boy
How are their eyes so blue? I'm pretty sure Oliver is telling Katya something very important in this picture. I just don't know what!
I was impressed with my Superman cake and Spiderman cupcakes, but not as impressed as Ollie and Katya. Ok so the cupcakes are more pink than they are red, but no matter how much food colouring I added they stayed pink. So I couldn't have a pink "S" for Superman so I used the tube of writing icing and filled it in that way. It took a REALLY long time, but it was worth it!
Happy Birthday my big boy!
