Happy Birthday Mikayla!!

Today is M's 8th birthday. Man how time flies. The phone started ringing at 7.15am way before any of the kids were up but hey gotta say hello on a birthday. Unfortunately a school day but none the less a day of fun and attention. First up was a quick call in to Aunty Judy's for her present, (we gave hers to her yesterday since dad would be at work) then off to school for Happy Birthday songs and chocolate crackles to share.

One of the many calls for the day. This time Uncle Greg from Melbourne. What a lucky girl.

Both Nanna and Grandy and Mum and Dad gave M some new clothes for her birthday so we had a bit of a fashion parade tonight to show off the new duds. She looks soo grown up."sigh"

The outfit from Nanna and Grandy.

Top from Mum with pants from Nanna.

After a treat of sushi for dinner M had the ceremonial blowing out of the candles. Nothing like a birthday cake to top off a great day.

And sorry to those who have been waiting for updates. The house has been struck with the pox..chicken pox that is. I discovered them on Xander on Friday so between that and a weary mum I haven't had much time to blog. Just waiting for Roh to get them now. A website I found rated the chances of a sibling contracting them as a 9 out of 10 chance. So we may have to postpone parties again as the second wave erupts. Oh well what can you do??

Pox boy, fortunately or unfortunately he still feels great and is hating being cooped up all day in the house....note so is his mother :)
