Sofia turns 2 - twice!


Blowing out the candles, originally uploaded by Racmol.

Yesterday was phase 2 of the great 2nd birthday extravaganza - the party, as opposed to the actual birthday on Thursday. We took 8 toddlers, 3 babies and 15 parents to an hour of soft play at Swiss Cottage Leisure Centre and then on to the cafe for cake. Definitely a good decision, having it away from our house. When we saw the debris after the toddlers had eaten, we were very glad not to be doing the clearing up. And Sofia had a great time so it was all good.

Sofia's latest phrase is "Fia needs more presents", which is quite clever but completely untrue! We were chuffed when she opened the scooter we got her and said 'It's Fia's scooter. Is pretty cool.'

Jules and I are a bit shattered, one way and another...

Very impressive having all those people at a birthday party/ Sofia looks beautiful. Did you make the cakes?

Yes, I made the same cake twice - once for the birthday and once for the party. See if you can tell which is mark 1 and which is mark 2 on flickr!

i think mark one is the one of just the cake and the candles at the end of your photostream. We have a new kitten tortoiseshell found at the gardens last night.

So Fia's scooter is pretty cool eh? :) How gorgeous. I think she's going to get on great with Moo who also needs more presents apparently and 2 birthdays. Her 2nd 6th birthday is due to happen sometime in the next month or so....think her friends should be back from Xmas holidays by then ;)
