Hi all!

Well the DTs will be 3 on the 11th February. When did that happen??????????

I've decided to do a fancy dress party at home for them. It will go like this.......

I will cook some chicken nuggets and chips (homemade people... don't you worry lol) and the birthday cakes ... that's right CAKES ... will of course be lemon drizzle!

The wee beasts will arrive. Half will cry and moan, the rest will trash my house, kill the plants in the garden and annoy the neighbours. I'm trying to decide whether or not to have a bouncy castle as that annoys him too!

The mums will say how brave I am to have a party at home and do their best not to eat all of their wee ones' food (which obviously the wee beasts won't eat cos they don't do they? Sigh..............) The mums will have some "well... only a little bit then" cake. I'll offer some sparkly wine, which they won't drink as they will all be driving Tarquin and Jocasta the 200m home.

They will leave. I'll put in an emergency call to my cleaner. I will sink a bottle of wine and realise I've forgotten to pick up DD2 from school.

I will vow to use the soft play centre next year and come on here and post about how awful everyone's children are... including my wee beasts!

My babies are about to be 3! Time flies.

Didn't bother with the party cos I felt like death warmed up. My sisters came over on the Sunday and brought pressies and wine. Much more my cup of tea.

The fancy dress will have to wait until they are 4.

Ooh and HazlinH... how was your wee one's birthday?

HazlinH. Sorry I didnt say Happy Birthday to your Lo, hope all went well.
HML - I'm sure they will enjoy the party much more when they are four.

ooh helloo!
thanks toytown and marslady..

party went well, dd wanted a sleeping beauty disney princess cake in the end and she loved her cake, and so did most of the girls at the party. we had it at her nursery, so had some 22 kids running around with no parents and about 5-7 adults desperately trying to control the kids and me trying to stop them getting their itchy fingers on the beautiful cake!!! grrr...

the kids ate spaghetti, and had the cake for dessert.

did a few games, like pass the parcel and freeze. dd was so excited, she unwrapped half her pressies on the spot, esp when one of her classmates egged her on. sigh. some of the other kids are just so precocious! oh and dd's 2 and a half yr ole cousin thought it was his birthday and blew out half the candles out before she had a chance!! it's all captured on video!

all in all, it went well. dd still can't stop talking about it!!!!
