Well what a week! It started off last Sunday with it being Easter and Burton still poorly, so he and I were stuck at home all day while Daddy and Jenson weren’t off egg hunting at Granma’s! Burton was not better until Tuesday, and then that night Jenson had a high temperature and a nasty cold!!! So we have not been out and about as I had intended so far these Easter holidays!
Luckily Jenson got by on lots of calpol on Wednesday which was his 5th birthday, but by Thursday he was not well at all, and at one point I was thinking we might have to cancel his party on Saturday. Thankfully, he bounced back on Friday and the party went ahead, even though almost half the guests dropped out owing to a case of chicken pox which has wiped out a lot of his class!
Here is a look back on our week in photos:
Sunday – checking out the egg loot when Jenson and Daddy returned form their day out at Granma’s
Monday – another day at home so we played games and watched a movie. Scrabble was out at 9.30am!
Tuesday – Daddy rigged up a zip wire in the garden
Wednesday – Jenson’s birthday and here he is having his cake (recipe to follow)
Thursday – While Jenson was laying on the sofa, Burton had a quick scoot down our road for some fresh air
Friday – so much for next day delivery (ordered this bank holiday Monday), this was Jenson’s present which was meant to arrive Wednesday! Still, it is here now
Saturday – was Jenson’s party and we will be eating party food for a few days to come!
Aww sorry to hear the boys were feeling unwell. I’m glad Jenson was feeling better for his party though. The cake looks amazing. x
Sorry to hear the week was spoiled a bit by the boys being poorly. Jenson’s cake looks amazing! He still looks under the weather in the photo with the bike.
Hope next week is more healthy for you all! x
Awww happy birthday Jenson and great cake as always!! I think if you’re ill in the holidays you should be able to claim days off school in lieu – teachers too 😉 x x
what an amazing cake and so much chocolate, i hope no one has been sick from over eating
Fantastic cake, and fab face rainbow! Hope this week is better for you all. It’s not fun to be poorly, especially with a birthday party.
Happy belated birthday Jenson, that cake looks brilliant. what a shame about his party, there is a lot of chicken pox going round up here as well.
Love the new bike, and his face on the zip wire is brilliant.
