Bibou's 2nd Birthday

All too fast, Bibou's turning two! As Kongkong and mahmah were here, we decided to host Bibou's 2nd birthday party a week in advance, just 1 week shy of her actual birthday.

We'd decided that it was gonna be themed party, so we asked everyone to come in their favorite costumes! Bibou got to wear her supergal outift again. We had a couple of princesses, a spiderman, grasshopper and a pirate.

We were very lucky with the weather that day. Though there were a little bit of threatening clouds in the morning, it turned out to be a gorgeous and not too cold day! And the party was held outdoors. Yippee.

Unfortunately, Bibou was still sleepy when guests started to arrive, so she was grouchy and clingy at first. But all that changed once we let her open her birthday pressies... especially the big one from us! It was a trompoline!! yippee... it took Daddy and kongkong a while to assemble it lol, but once it was all set up, it was by far, the hottest, most popular item in the whole garden! Everyone wanted to have a go at it. Bibou of course got first go, and she jumped and jumped and jumped. All the other kids had their turn and they loved it too.

Before we brought the cake out, we found out that some of the kids had smashed it a little and destroying the icing on it! Oh dear, but it was Rebecca to the rescue! She saved the cake and made some lovely decorations from the mini smarties that we had. Bibou was all excited with the cake and she even blew out her own candles! She knew how. oh wow!

Next, Daddy brought out the pineta that we'd made. All the (other) kids had great fun whacking it, and Daddy trying to stay away from the whacks! unfortunately, Bibou wasn't in the mood, and prefered to stay in her sandpit! But she did come out and grab the candy and balloons that came rushing out once the pineta was broke.

All in all, it was a really fun day (I hope for everyone!). Oh and Bibou loved all her pressies! But we were particularly tickled when she took a harmonica that she was given and started blowing and making music! She's real talented!
