The Big 3 oh

Maud turned 3 and so began a few days of cake eating.
Birthday morning ready for a another day of nursery.

Back home again to open pressies.

Tradition dictates that the birthday celebratee takes a cake to share with everyone else at nursery, so Silje cooked up this little number, impressive eh. Kept them bouncing off the walls at nursery for a few hours.

The birthday girl also gets to wear the regulation nursery issue birthday crown all day too. Mightily impressive.

Party pants

Saturday saw the real deal birthday party, hot dogs followed by cake.
Oh,, and more present opening too.

and finally

Today was the final day of celebration and involved much of the same as the other days, not that Maud was complaining.

Another helping of cake and presents.

Sit-ups

Henny continued her sitting practice and staged a sit in that convinced us that she was ready for the next stage.

new eating perch...

doesn't make the food go down any easier though.

Had an absolute ton of snow this year which is all bearable (just) when the temperature stays sub-zero as it has but when it starts to thaw uggg, going to be slushy for days on end.

3 years old

Maud got a cold for her birthday.
Cake eating and present opening pictures to follow later.

gathering

All aboard

 

She's a better at humming than singing.

really moving

I was left in charge on saturday while silje went skiing, so i fed maud jaffa cakes for breakfast... this is the result.
Wind her up and watch her go.
I offered Henny a stunt double but she refused and was even good enough to sleep through the whole warp speed experience.

not always so easy pushing or dragging the pram around though.
