Happy Birthday Christopher! 3 on 9 June 2011









Happy Birthday to our beautiful boy. Your mommy and daddy are so proud of you. We lay in bed the night before your birthday and blew up around 50 balloons. Debated whether or not to put them in your room- but decided against it in case you woke up in the night and tripped over them.

You were out for the count because a few of them popped and you slept right through it. You woke up and grinned at us as you walked through to the lounge and saw them all. You knew something was up. Had a present hunt for all your pressies which Mommy had hidden all over the lounge.


We had driven in in the dark from the airport so did not see the sea until the next morning. Daddy took you out to see the view after you had unwrapped your presents.




Thank you so much to Warwick and Lizelle for letting us stay in your beautiful beach cottage.


I am in love with the butler's sink that you can just see in the picture. There is no tilting of pots and pans that don't fit in an ordinary sized sink. Daddy thinks my infatuation with the sink is amusing and has offered to get me one for my birthday. Such a romantic.









Had your birthday breakfast at this place- which was to become our regular spot while we were here. Great vibe and great food- looking out over the beach.

The ladies even came out to sing happy birthday to you and brought you a piping hot Malva pudding cup-cake with ice-cream and chocolate sauce with a candle in it. You of course would have none of it and daddy ate it so as not to offend the ladies.



As we sat eating breakfast you had spied the ladies selling their wares on the pavement across the parking lot and insisted that you wanted a pink bucket.


Went to buy a pink bucket and came away with a pink bucket, shoes for you, 2 pairs of sandals for Mommy and necklaces and bracelets for Momma. The neighbour next door at Wagick's (as you refer to him) place had commented already on how eye-catching Mommy's new bracelets are. And I only paid R10,00 for them- bargain!

Mommy's camera card was full and I couldn't take all the pictures of you and daddy on the beach. The joy on your face was priceless.


You were absolutely dripping wet when you and daddy came back and insisted that you were not cold despite the fact that your teeth were chattering. We stripped you off and put daddy's jumper on you. And what is the beach without an ice-cream?

Happy birthday Sweetheart. We Love you so much and hope that you enjoyed this day as much as we enjoyed spending it with you.
