Happy Birthday Daddy!

Happy Birthday to Dad!

D, my partner-in-all-things-Jordy turned 32 on Monday! Seeing as he had to spend most of it at work (poor thing), Jordy and I conspired to make his evening a fun one.

We got him a great cake (Ferrero Rocher with rum base from Swiss Bake) and 'cos it was a special night, Jordy got to stay up way past his bedtime, till 8.30pm! Then it was present-opening time, and first D opened the interim present from me, the new U2 album (interim because I'm letting him choose his real present himself - new headphones), then he opened Jordy's present. Cufflinks with little compasses in them (Jordy said it was so he would have something new to play with at Friday lunches).

All in all a lovely evening, and made better because D's cousin Gina and her son Joshua (which would make Joshua, err, Jordy's second cousin?) were due in later that night en route to London.

The next day, Jordy and Joshua played together, mostly companionably beside each other, like so:


And other times, err, Jordy kinda got a bit territorial and then it looked like this:


But still not much crying was heard in the Turnip household despite there being two babies barely two months apart in age. Migoodness, won't they treasure these pictures when their older!

next birthday he'll want to blow out the candles, will be singing along to the Happy Birthday Song & will probably want to stay up even later!
