T Stands for...........

 Toddler Two Today


Well strictly speaking, the birthday was yesterday, (Monday), but I like the sound of the title, hehe.
I have just spent a wonderful few days with my daughter, her partner and their little boy, Jack, who turned two just yesterday. They arrived on Friday and go home on Thursday this week. It has been such a lovely time getting to know a sweet little boy with a gorgeous smile and beautiful manners. 

My Wee Man has found it hard at times, having another child in about his home and toys, and disrupting his routine somewhat, but I am proud to say that, overall, he has coped very well. It helped having the foresight to get different toys and books available for he and Jack to share; as they belonged to neither boy, there was no territory to fight over. 

We all celebrated Jack's birthday with a traditional family tea party of jam sandwiches, sausage rolls, mini sausages, crisps, cheeses and of course birthday cake. I'm just sorry that there wasn't enough to share with you all ;)

I am sharing these pictures along with the other ladies who join Elizabeth & Bleubeard each Tuesday over at Elizabeth's hang-out, the, Altered Book Lover.



I was ready for that cup of coffee after getting a phone call from school saying Wee Man wasn't well, for the second time in as many weeks. Hopefully the meds will take effect quickly and he'll be back to his charming self very soon. 

In the meantime, we all sang a little ditty
and the birthday boy blew out his number two candle.

Then came the wearing eating

and a cheeky nap

Isn't that just the best?! What a little rascal he is :o))

From there, he went directly to the bath, hehehe, and is currently fast asleep, as I type.

If you would like to join us for Tea on Tuesday, simply nip over to Elizabeth's blog and read all about it here.

Until next time...............
..................thanks for popping by to say 'Hi' ((hugs)) :o) x

  2. Sounds like both you and Wee Man have had a week already, and it isn't over, yet. What a great way to celebrate a birthday. Never heard of your age old tradition before, but it sounds like you and everyone had lots of fun.

    Thanks for sharing this wonderful birthday party with us for T this Tuesday because I know it's now Tuesday in your world.

    I do love your Moomin mug! I wish i'd bought a mug and not a pen and note block when I was at the covent garden shop :-P Although every time I have to write a note now I do smile to myself :-)

  19. What delightful scenes Mo... just gorgeous,
    You did really well thinking about the toy territory. But I'm sorry to hear Wee Man isn't feeling so good. I hope he's okay now as I'm a little late visiting.
    I'm going to have to bake a cake today now thanks to you putting the idea into my head. I'll just have to find my way to the kitchen through the darkness. (Yet again dim and dismal here)
    Happy belated birthday wishes to Jack ;D
    Enjoy your weekend xoxo

  20. I've missed your posts, Mo. And I hope things are good with you and the Wee Man, too.

    You asked why the 21st, when I said that's when I would reveal my eco-dyeing. It's the only day I have to post, since it's not a Craft Barn Sunday. I have boxed myself into a hole with all these challenges, and all the places I've been lately, so it's the one day I have nothing else to post. thanks for asking.
