Birthday CE

Yesterday was CE's third birthday. She is now a big girl. We have binned her potty. CE has decided she can now use the loo. Hurrah.

No birthday party though. "I think I see the other girls enough at school Mummy. I don't need to have a party. Only You, Papa, CS, Opa and Oma and Me. Oh and the cat." She kept insisting no party, so no party was had. We did go to Waitrose to pick out chocolate cake. (She had Waitrose cake at Opa's birthday and was most impressed by its quality). CE was allowed to choose what she wanted for lunch - a white bread roll to be eaten while we were in the shop (this is not normally allowed so the girls were really pleased). Drinks to be had with the cake were to coffee, this was vetoed by her mother for all those under five, but pink milk aka Nesquik strawberry flavour was allowed. And for afternoon snacks CE asked for Walker's Thai sweet chilli crisps. And if it really was her special day she wanted pasta with red pepper, mushrooms, tinned tomatoes and "rookworst" for dinner.

Opa and Oma brought best present ever - the Playmobil pink palace. I am sure that Playmobil never took one and a half hours to assemble when I was little but hey it stands proud in our living room.

So now we need to get back to reality and realise that not every day you get to be spoiled like that.

Pasta with rookworst?
And what is a party without a cat?

Ooooh that pink palace is a total dream. Very cool.

And pasta with rookworst is a huge fave here :-)
