Bon anniversaire, Max! Happy Birthday, Max!

I'm a year old!  Let's PARTY!

We did it!  We managed to keep Max alive for a year!  We had a wee party in the flat yesterday and had a great time celebrating.  Thanks for all of the birthday messages, cards and gifts.  Here's a few pictures from Max's big day.  My pal Jen made a video of us all singing 'happy birthday' with Paul on the guitar - I'll try and upload it as it's a great keepsake of a lovely day.  We're sorry to have missed Anna's First Communion celebrations but thanks for the photographs - looks like you all had a great day in Greenock.

Nikitas and Theodore are the first to hit the dancefloor
Max quickly joins them to show off his moves with the balloons

Why is everyone singing and looking at me?  Bunch of weirdos
Georgious, Nikitas, Ran, Ofer and Einat
Check out the Mexican decorations!  I'm not going to take them down!
Max already a bit jaded but hanging in there for some of the scoff

Rachel made lovely number one-shaped baby biscuits for the little 'uns.  Max ate most of them.
Violetta, the little Argentian girl from next door, made Max a lovely stained-glass window picture

After the guests have gone - Max relaxes with his toys and balloons.

Happy Birthday big boy Max!! We'll have another Scottish party for you when you get home I'm sure. Won't be the same without the likes of Gorgeous though..what a cool name. 'Hi, I'm gorgeous...'. Hmmm...
