Happy Birthday Son

Firstly I would like to say a big HAPPY BIRTHDAY to our beautiful baby boy who was 1 today. The first year has flown past but has been a complete blessing. If J2 is anything like Joshua then the next year will be absolutely wonderful. Today I was the proudest Dad in the World watching my little boy playing with his new toys and interacting with all his guests.

Secondly thank you to everyone who came along to Joshua's birthday party and made the event very memorable indeed. The little lad thoroughly enjoyed himself and was completely knackered by 6.30 after the events of the day. As expected the little guy was showered with loads of cards and some very nice presents for Dad to play with!!! The next task is to find space in the house for all his new toys.......



The all important 1st birthday cake - aptly a cheeky monkey.

Anyway in no particular order we would like to thank everyone for their gifts:

Grandad - Arsenal away kit
Nanny & Grandad - F-Car
Auntie Lorraine - Red hooded top
Matt - Wooden hammer bench
Lisa & David - My first workbench
Jan, Mike, Ollie & Alex - New outfit plus bath toy
Clare, Barry & Sophia - Dinosaur top and trousers
Nanny King - Transporter truck
Nanny & Grandad - Wooden bead table
Shahinah & Marek - Trampoline
Nik, Karren, Millie and Joeban - Matchbox lorry plus walking dinosaur
Paul, Sue and Nathan - New outfit
Amy - Iggle piggle hat and gloves plus a book
Zoe - Wooden puzzles
Mia Rose - New outfit
Michael - Arsenal European kit
Emma, Steve and Amy - Jeans, t-shirt and fleece

Nicky & Paul - Build a bear dinosaur

Apologies if I have missed anyone off of the list, but I tried my hardest to remember and to make notes of who brought what gift. Special thanks to Paul, Sue and Nathan for travelling all the way down from Sutton Coldfield for Joshua's party.

Look out for more pictures from his birthday party over the course of this week.
