Oil Painting

Nothing better than getting hold of some oil paints and learning the difference between "washes off in water" and "washes off after you try a few different solvents" - still, managed a great result and learned that all of the colours mixed together come out a sort of olive/brown.

Isla Turns Two

So it's a happy birthday to Isla May, who turned Two a couple of days ago.

She has been a big fan of the Iggle Piggle Crew and it was fitting her mother made the characters a feature of her birthday cake.

It was her first time blowing out candles so she was a little unsure of positioning and the correct way to do it.

But once the smoke had cleared, she liked the green yoghurt flavoured icing on the banana cake.

It's good to share birthday cake with your sisters too, they also enjoy some!

After a few bites, Isla lost interest and was ready to get up and dance.

A quick cuddle photo opportunity and it was time to start dancing!

Although I'm two, I still have to wear nappies, but I'm going Okay with my toilet training - will update you as developments come to hand.
