Another Campbell Post

Lately it seems as if I only have one child to blog about ... but Campbell was having such a fun time "painting" Nan's ladder. He would fill a jar with water from a bird bath (gross) and then carry it over to the ladder. The paint brush was dunked in the water and then painting would commence. He was even painting his boots at one stage.

Earlier he must have thought that he would be in trouble for having a paint brush as he was coming inside with it hidden behind his back with a really guilty look on his face. Once I realised what the look was for, I told him that he was allowed to play with the brush and his face just lit up. Oh so cute!

Happy 3rd Birthday Campbell

Yesterday was Campbell's 3rd birthday. The day was started with pancakes for breakfast. Campbell devoured his - natuarally as they were covered in shooggie (sugar). He had to lick his plate to make sure that he got every bit of sugar.

He got a new bike. A little bit of frustration was evident as he couldn't move - had to get used to using the pedals instead of being pushed. He also got a few different types of lego - Star Wars, Racers and City, and some PJ's with Buzz Lightyear on them and Campbell is also a bit cashed up with some money he received - time to go shopping.

Lunch was at McDonald's (his request). There was no party this year but lunch was enjoyed with his cousins.

I normally make and decorate a cake for the kids birthdays but as we are not having parties this year, I have been a little, ok very slack, in this area to the point that I even forgot to buy a cake.
Campbell, at 8 pm, asked where his cake was. Oops! Will raced to the shop and found a cake decorated with his two favourite characters out of "Cars". It went down a treat.

How Do I Fold That?

It is common in our home to dump the clean washing on the lounge chair ready for folding. Campbell snuggled up in the washing and fell asleep. I didn't realise he had fallen asleep until I went to fold the washing. How can I fold the washing now?

Our Family "Pet" ...

Campbell often likes to pretend he is some kind of animal. He was pretending to be a dog in these photos. He even ate his date slice like a dog would.
