Erika's Birthday

[Wednesday 10th September 2014]
Having been to Monaco the weekend immediately before, we hadn't really planned much for the day of Erika's birthday itself. So she went off to nursery as usual, and we went off to work as usual in the daytime. In the evening I managed to get back a bit before Chie and Erika, and blew up some birthday balloons for her. Then we had a flurry of opening birthday presents, followed by pasta for dinner, and an Anpanman birthday cake, which Chie had spent most of yesterday evening baking.

I'm not sure Erika is old enough to understand what it all means - I don't think she really has a concept of what day of the week it is yet, let alone what day of the year, but nonetheless she seemed to be having a lovely time opening her presents and playing with her new toys. Chie got her a little buggy to push around, as she'd seen other kids with these and had enjoyed playing with theirs. I got her a zoo Lego Duplo set, and a marble run, the latter possibly providing more entertainment for me than it did for Erika.
