It's Jr's first bday tomorrow - I still cannot believe its been a year!!
Soooooo, maybe when the birthday paraphenalia is down, I'll convice himself to get the decorations out. We've a plastic tree which I think is grand and he hates. I suspect this year, I'll spend most of my time trying to stop Jr from either pulling it down or trying to eat it. Fun times eh?Bazza gets caught
