On Sunday we threw a 3rd birthday party for Audrey. We both find it amazing that our little girl is 3!
I’m not sure how she reached the decision, but for the last 6 months Audrey has been asking us for a ‘Humpty cake’ for her birthday and so Amy and I were labouring away on Saturday evening putting the finishing touches to Humpty's features. Play School finished some years ago in the UK, but is still going strong here in Australia. Here’s what Humpty on TV looks like;

And here’s what our cake looked like
Not a bad effort methinks!
We hired a cottage in Kambah (just a few minutes south of where we live) and around 20 under 4s appeared (+ one 5 year old) together with their parents. It was a really lovely morning and Audrey was exhausted at the end of it.
It was great to watch Audrey’s excitement build as her friends arrived. At one point she was literally jumping up and down with enthusiasm. The party started at 10am and just after midday Audrey was flagging and (even though she denied being tired) she sat down with heavy eyes. Eli kept going strong throughout, but in fairness didn’t have the pressure that came with being the centre of attention. He loves hanging around with the bigger boys that came along.
Here’s some pictures of the morning.
