When I was 1 I had just begun


The b'day girl and her cake.

My baby girl is 1!!!! What an amazing year it has been and we had a great time celebrating.

You can just see the bunting in this one.

The week before the big day was very busy, some friends from the UK stayed with us after travelling around NZ and Aus for 3 months and then I went crazy trying to get everything done. Thankfully everything went smoothly, apart from realising we have no serving crockery or cake stand, thanks to all those lovely people who helped us out.

Lydibug had a great day and was so spoilt we have only just opened all her presents 4 days later. She was very happy being the centre of attention and loved all the singing and cheering.

Today our poor bug learnt about the downside of turning 1, the next lot of needles were due. She was not a happy bunny, holding her down while both the nurse and the doctor stuck needles in her at the same time was not pleasant for me either. But after a big sleep and a feed she seemed much better. Thank goodness we had the last few presents to open to cheer her up.

  1. Oh poor Lydi! I booked Milly's for the day of her first birthday, which was my first day of work so Lyle took her and I didn't even have to see it. The doctor let her have a lolly and a sticker and I think it distracted her!
