its been a week of celebration round our house. my darling little Lily turned a whole 4 years old. She is getting to be such a big girl with all these musings on life , funny observations and all round cuteness. I had arranged a very small party for her with a few of her little friends from around here. She of course asked for a pink , princess sort party and I obliged in a haze of pinkness. To think when she was a baby I did not want to dress her in much pink, she was probably screaming out for pink babygrows., in fact...now I understand what those 4 months of constant crying were.

I made a princess cake with her princess barbie in the middle. Its been my first foray into cake decorating and I think it went quite well bar trying to get the legs to bend enough for her to fit into the "dress". nearly crippled the poor girl.

after the party a few friends arrived to wish Lily along with choo choo nana with more presents.

We had got Lily a beautiful dollshouse and nana Fi and grandad got her some rooms. BEST PRESENT EVER. a make called Le toy van. their stuff is divine.

Monday saw our second anniversary come round and I can barely believe its been 2 years since that special day in our lives. We celebrated by exchanging some cotton gifts. Pyjamas for him and a hand printed biscuit tea towel for me ( its lovely) and then went to watch Inception at the cinema.

So 4 years and 2 years ago two life changing events occurred in my life and I do so enjoy celebrating them every year.
