Joey's Birthday--in the bucket, as it were...

Joey crawled into bed in the middle of the night, and woke mummy up with a less than pleasant surprise. We held out hopes that he could still go to Legoland with his Dad and friend Calvin...but alas...dreams were dashed down the barf bucket...Luckily Aunt Susan & Uncle John sent Joey 3 sets of Lego Power Miners for his birthday.

Not quite the same as building rocket racers at Legoland, but ...

And then there was Tolka, who wanted birthday presents too, not satisfied with knowing his birthday WILL come next month...
Joey asked us to take down the sign that says "have a super day" (poor guy). And thanked his mum for looking after him. How sweet.
And Tolka is getting ill too, so we have to let him know his long promised trip to the pool today (a reward for a week's worth of good efffort) will have to wait until days when his derriere is a bit more reliable...
Sigh. Life throws us curveballs sometimes...I promised Joey I'd show him these pictures when he's a teen and he'll probably still remember how he felt...
