Sunday 23rd October 2016 - Today I woke up with chicken pox everywhere, which Mummy said made her feel heart-broken. I had a bath with a porridge sock and then got all snuggly again in my Thomas jammies
It was Ed's birthday so we decided to make him a birthday video. I was a bit too worried about my chicken pox with the first one...
...but I got into it after that. Happy Birthday Uncle Ed. Hope to see you soon when I'm feeling better

Day Seven Hundred and Forty-One

Thursday 20th October 2016 - Today I woke up with chicken pox so I spent the morning at home playing with Mummy. My friend Nancy dropped off my birthday present, which was more Duplo so we made a fire engine and a truck, a crane on wheels and a car with a tower on it. 
Clara, Poppy and Riley came back and we played for the afternoon, until it all got too much for me and I fell asleep on Mummy

Day Seven Hundred and Thirty-Four

Thursday 13th October 2016 - After a morning of shoe-related dramas, which resulted in Mummy taking me to Westfield and letting me chose my own boots, we got the DLR to the Museum of London Docklands. There was a new water feature for us to play with. It had stones and boats and fish jigsaw puzzles
There was a brand new pirate ship with pirate outfits. I needed no encouragement to dress up...
...and nor did Clara. Shiver me timbers!

Day Seven Hundred and Thirty

Sunday 9th October 2016 - It's my birthday today, which, you'll have to forgive me, I found a little bit confusing at first, especially after yesterday's extravagance. 
Fortunately, I was able to steady my nerves, with a touch of Duplo (and a ride or two on the Thomas rollercoaster) and was soon back into the swing of things.
Which was just as well because shortly after breakfast and a quick change of costume into my new dino-pyjamas, Grandma Kay and Granddad Mel arrived - with more presents!
After they were open I soon set Granddad to work on the railway.
And I even got to blow out some more candles, with Clara's help. 
Once we'd eaten lunch, we said goodbye to Grandma and Granddad and then Mummy and Daddy decided to wait until the sky was thick with rain clouds before taking me out for a birthday walk round the lake.
We fed the ducks and then we decided to head off on a bear hunt, climbing over rocks, kicking our way through leaves and swishing our way through long wavy grass.
Of course, pretty much as soon as we found the bears the heavens opened and we had to run through the rain all the way back to the car. I didn't mind though, it was great fun dashing through the storm and it made coming home and sitting on the radiator all the cosier. If every day is like today,  full of adventure, family and fun I think I'm going to like being 2.

Day Seven Hundred and Twenty-Nine

Saturday 8th October 2016 - Today it was my 2nd birthday party and I was bat man! It wasn't long before lots of delicious food arrived. I ate ALL the strawberries (or at least took a bit out of each of them) before anyone arrived
But before long, people came to celebrate with me. My friend James...
...and Nancy too
Grandma and Grandad, Uncle Ed and Aunt Amy...
...and Uncle Rob and Lois too
Some of mine and Clara's friends came too, but only those who had already had chicken pox
Mummy and Daddy had bought us a Thomas rollercoaster for the party, which made me so happy. I went up and down on it all day
And we used it as a slide too
We spent a bit of time watching Ben and Holly and Thomas in the front room...
...until someone said there was cake
Daddy had baked me a big chocolate cake...
...and Mummy made a little Thomas for the top of it
Everyone sang Happy birthday to me and I was delighted
What a great party
