Cake compliments of mum - it's a baseball alright!
Camping in NZ Part 2 will have to wait. I can't get the pictures out of my SD card - it doesn't seem to work which is highly annoying, so I'll post Tim's 9th birthday pictures instead.
My baby turned 9 on 15 February. Time flies. God blessed us with this little bundle of joy only 7 years into our marriange. He was the cutest little thing, and people used to just stop us at malls to admire him. For the longest time, his pacifier was his second and third finger - that was all he needed to fall asleep. Today my boy loves his Pokemon, gameboy and PS2. His new found interest is Baseball. Since he joined T-ball early this year, he's scored Player of the game twice and he's very proud of it. He'll be joining the Winter League in May. Tim plays the guitar very well too but he won't admit it. Twice he has done busking and once performed to the residents at the Metlife Resthome solo - on all occasions, he received lots of compliments. Our boy is still very much a mummy & daddy boy - loves his cuddles and kisses which we gladly shower on him.
This year's birthday we celebrated at Xtreme Bowling and then home for an Amazing Race challenge which yours truly planned and Mervin helped execute. The boys had a ball of time looking for the punga tree & hibiscus bush (what's that? we heard them saying), doing up a puzzle inside a tent, transferring marbles between bowls using chopsticks (the kiwi kids weren't too polite with their remarks at this station) and everyone's favourite - going through the water slide.
