Did you miss me?

I missed you! The German Telekom decided not to let me have internet all last night. It felt like someone had cut me off from the world! And that on Robert's Birthday, where I wanted to post his B-day Card on the right day. Oh well, I'll post it now instead.

Robert loved his card. So I was quite chuffed, and it did look good printed out and cut to size (only small, probably about 4x4).
Anyways about the birthday. He remembered the moment he got up that it was his birthday. So cute, and when asked if he'd like a present, the answer was a definite "YES". Good job I was for once organised. I had hidden his present in his favourite hiding place. So he found it quite quickly. He opened the small one from Richard first. The game with the chickens And we had to play it then and there. (I chose a good one, it was fun AND they both got the right idea!) After that, he went back to the BIG present, commenting on its size! He was so excited about it, we had to get that out right away too. And for once, this wasn't packaged like Fort Knox. I didn't need scissors or wire cutters to get this out! It was great, some of the other toy firms need to take a look at this packaging, it would save us Mum's a LOT of hassle!
They both played very nicely then with the new toys whilst I had a shower (in peace!).

At Kindergarden it was soooo cute! All the girls were lined up to give Robert a great big birthday cuddle! I wonder if they will still do that, when he's older! ;o)
He even came home with a present from Kindergarden, an egg timer for cleaning his teeth, its in the shape of a little mouse. He has been on about a mouse and a toothbrush all week, and I hadn't got a clue what he was on about, but now I know!

In the afternoon a car full of visitors arrived for him. Nanna and Pop, also known as Mum and Dad, although Robert could NOT understand that. He told Pop "You're not Daddy, your name is POP!" He could not get that Pop was also my Daddy! So cute.
Anyhow back to Robert's guests. Zoe and Mia and their other Nanna, Ulla, came too. It was all very exciting. Robert got some lovely presents, a game with monkeys, some books and some T-shirts and not to forget some lollipops! After unwrapping all them, it was out into the garden and to the paddling pool. It was sooooo hot here yesterday, that they needed the paddling pool.
They all had great fun, and Dad took some great photos. As usual on the important days, I hardly get any photos, typical!
so that was yesterday, I would have told everyone about it last night, but as I said, Telekom cut me off from the world!

Today in comparison, was not at all exciting, housework in the morning and more paddling pool in the afternoon. Robert came in for the watering cans from the bathroom at one point and came back out with 5 little water pistols he found in the cupboard. So we had great fun chasing one another with them. It was great when they actually hit me, very refreshing.
come tea time though Robert was in "paddy" mode, so that was fun. Because of it, he missed out on a bath, and they both only had a shower, and they wouldn't have had that, had they not been so dirty. The paddling pool can be a really dirty thing in our house. They will insist on swamping the lawn and then splashing in the mud!

Florian is not due home til late tonight, so that gives me time to get his birthday card made. It's Florian's turn tomorrow!
Bye 4 now
