The baby owl was a neat find, as it can be heated to make it nice to snuggle up to in winter, but can also be frozen to put on any bumps and bruises (which are sure to happen soon.)

I made a pledge recently that I would not purchase another plastic or battery operated toy, so when I spotted this wooden construction toy, it also made it into the basket.

Being last in rank, Oscar usually gets everyone else's hand-me-downs, so I thought it was about time to purchase him something new to wear. These Purebaby summer essentials are great quality and cute too:

I even went to the trouble to make him a birthday cake. Admittedly it was a little unconventional, but I thought that as he wouldn't be eating it anyway, I decided to make something different:

But despite my best efforts, he really didn't understand what all the fuss was about:
Happy birthday!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like he had a great one...even if he won't remember it.
That cake looks amazing!
What is the recipe?
It's from Donna Hay's Modern Classics (Book 2) which was perfect with a cup of tea. In fact the older kids enjoyed it too. xx
ReplyDeleteOh he does look quite bemused doesn't he? The cake looks delish, did your other bubs not stuff their faces with cake? I have memories of Liongirl mashing a whole fistful into her mouth. She never strays far from the party food now that girl, will have to seriously keep an eye on her. mel x
ReplyDeleteApple and cinnamon tea cake was one of the first cakes I ever learnt to bake - lovely memories of my mum and I cooking together. I grew up in PNG and there wasn't always after school activities on offer and you couldn't really play on the street - so cooking it was!
