Louie Turns 6!!
This morning we were woken bright and early by a brand new 6 year old! Someone was rather excited about his birthday, so we got up and let him have his presents first thing. This little bee was rather spoiled, receiving so many wonderful gifts from his friends and family. Particular highlights included new the Doctor Who Lego set, Eddie Stobart trucks for his collection (not pictured) and the den building kit!
After a quick nip around the corner to our local Farmers Market, we quickly had some sausage sandwiches before making our way to Birmingham for a full day of fun at the Think Tank.
Louie was fascinated by all of the fossils and skeletons, however he was rather concerned that I would see the fossilized fish so he hid them from me. (For those of you who don't know, I have a rather silly phobia of fish and he thought I would be scared, bless his little cottons!)
The Spitfire Floor was obviously going to be a winner with the boys, and Dan was very excited to try on the pilots gear!
Kids Corner was absolutely brilliant and Louie was completely immersed in the role play. He was a dentist, a doctors receptionist, a barista (though I am still waiting for my decaf cappuccino...), a plumber and a taxi driver!
We watched a wonderful film in the Planetarium, answering questions about whether there is life on other planets. At this point it was dinner time so we headed over to the Bull Ring for our dinner, Handmade Burger as requested by the birthday boy where we all feasted on some yummy burgers.
I can't believe our baby boy is 6 and his birthday is all done for another year!

Louie's Lego Party
Today we celebrated Louie turning 6 with a few of his closest school friends. Louie had decided many many months ago that he wanted to have a Lego party with his friends, all he wanted to do was to play Lego!! We decided to have the party at Nana's so that there was a bit more space for the littles to spread out and enjoy themselves, and a little more space for us adults too!
Whilst all the kids were playing and the adults were happy with their cups of tea (and/or beer!) I was stationed in the kitchen making pizza from scratch! We decided as it was a tea time party to ditch the traditional party food and make pizzas for the kids instead.
There was pizza, jelly and ice cream and then a little bit more playing before it was time to bring out the amazing Lego cake made by my amazingly talented sister.
Louie had a wonderful time, doing exactly as he wanted, so a big big thank you to everyone who came along :)
