Can you tell I've been to a party?

Can you tell I've been to a party

My friend Joanna had her 3rd birthday party last Saturday. Her mammy invited all the children in the 2 montessori rooms to the party. I missed Charles party because it was on the day of Ríodhna's christening so I wasn't missing this one. Mammy thought she might need to stay for a while with me - but I didn't want her spoiling the fun so once I'd given my present to Joanna, I ran into the kitchen with her to see what else was going on so she took the hint and left. When she arrived back a few hours later, wed just been given our goody bags so I was sitting on the floor with Clara doing some colouring and investigating our loot. I did agree to go home with her but I was pretty hyper for the rest of the night.

Before that we were in Wexford. It was Mammo's birthday - everyone is having birthdays recently. We had loads of fun, playing all day long. Mammo is great. She will let you dress up in all her jewellery and play with make-up as soon as you decide it's morning. We went to a great playground that had a trampoline - if it hadn't started to rain really heavily, I never would have left. It's done that a lot this year.

Also we went to Caoimhe and Ronan's house and that day it didn't rain so we had a fab time on bikes and scooters and taking turns racing down the hill on the tractor and trailer, two at a time.

I stayed at home on Wednesday this week too. Auntie Jill came to the swimming pool with me and Mammy and Ríodhna which was pretty good because we let her mind Ríodhna while Mammy swam around with me. Afterwards I was doing some colouring in and I wrote my name. I thought I had written something else but Mammy seemed to think it was my name. She was very excited about it.

The Sarah and baby Grace came for some lunch. Grace is a little bit smaller than Ríodhna - she's a very good baby too and played on the playmat while we had lunch.
