Well; we survived yesterday's party. Littletree had a great time, though sometime in the middle she got overwhelmed with the large numbers of people.
The cousins came over early to help with preparations:
Littletree got a mountain of presents:
and of course a rich chocolate cake, topped with strawberries:
The adults sat around Kwatching
While the kids played games:
There was a lot of family, and old friends I haven't seen for ages. It was great to see them :D We had the obligatory 'way too much food', but it was a lot of fun, and less work than we all feared.
This morning Littletree announced that she's not going to have 'boobie' any more, since now she's five, and that means she's a big girl. After five years of breastfeeding, I'm about ready to end it, but we'll see if she really sticks to her new resolution. Famous last words, methinks LOL
