H-Bear turned one last week! One??! Where does the time go??
We celebrated in style with a BBQ and mini-party on his actual birthday, with lots of presents for H-Bear and lots of bubbles for the grown-ups! We then had a crazy busy few days of travelling down to Sussex, I went to BritMums Live, and then on Sunday we had a picnic in the park with friends and other little people. I didn’t manage to take many photos of the latter due to non-stop chatting (and prosecco intoxication) – but I did take hundreds on Thursday:
A huge thank you to the fabulous Becky of Magnificent Stanley, who made H-Bear this tee with custom fabric that I sourced from Liberty. She doesn’t usually stock Queue for the Zoo, but I was desperate for a t-shirt to match his birthday shoes in the same print made by the very talented Love Roo!
H-Bear suffers from a Cow’s Milk Protein Allergy (CMPA) and a soya allergy, so sadly couldn’t have a milk and butter-filled cake. Instead I made him the Beetroot Chocolate Cake from Deliciously Ella’s book… It was interesting! I added too much beetroot, so at times it tasted of sugarbeet… and it was a bit flat… but the icing was yummy!
I managed to capture one photo of Busby on Sunday at H-Bear’s picnic party – I asked Becky to make the children one of her bespoke letter tees each with the fabric too. Twinning is winning!
Last week
I really enjoyed this post from Tara (Mum’s Space) about Isla’s jet bike! It looks like she’s having the BEST time!!!

Lovely Franki from Wonderful Chaos will be hosting next week as we’re still down in Sussex and I shall be sans Husband, so I’m not quite sure when I’ll be able to fit blogging in…!
