And then the day came: Conrad’s very first birthday. How quickly time has gone. Seems almost like another lifetime when he was just a little baby, doing nothing much more but sleeping and feeding and being just about aware of things going on around him. Now he’s such an alert, responsive, active and happy little boy, and definitely on the move!
We started his big day by opening the presents he’d received at his party and, boy, were there a lot of those to get through…! Conrad had to enlist the help of his sister, who was very keen to assist (Mummy and Daddy made sure to point out for each present that this was Conrad’s and not hers, just in case) and Conrad didn’t mind sharing the ripping apart of wrapping paper, as long he got to carry on ripping it to shreds afterwards.
Conrad’s farmor and farfar came over a few hours later – the plan for the day was to go to Drusillas Park in East Sussex, driving down towards the coast… (to be continued).
