Day 157: Balloon flower

This afternoon we all went to the 5th birthday party of one of Exile #3's classmates. It was a really nice party and, like the last one, was a really well organised party with a relatively modest budget. Phew. At least we don't yet find ourselves playing 'my party's more expensive than yours' yet. In fact we are debating at the moment what to do for Exile #3's birthday on Wednesday. We are buying a house (and hopefully a car as well) on Tuesday, so thoughts of a major party-event have been long since discarded. Probably we'll have some sort of day-out followed by some play-dates with her friends during the summer once we've moved.

Exile #4 held her own quite well with the older kids which bodes well for her school-start later in the year. E5N1 was passed around and, except when he was hungry, lived-up to his laid-back billing.
