a clucking new arrival

For days we have been waiting for two little arrivals to pop out of there shells and say hello, and this morning at 6:30am before my mum went to work, we ran down the end of our garden hoping someone will be there cheeping away. No one was there but a little crack in the egg shell was, at first i thought its adopted mum mabel had steped on the egg and cracked it but then i realised this little chick was hatching


                                                




mabel the bigger hen is such a good mum making sure the chick was warm so it doesnt die.
Also it was camerons birthday so it was a nice little present for him, the other presents he got were a harry potter deathly hallows part two ds game a watch for school with gadgets on and a family tree book so i hope he had a good day. also we need names for the chick so if you have any ideas just say

were has my cement gone ??

This morning cameron was building a house out of lego,he got the idea because he was bored and had nothing to do, so he thought of building something out of lego, he thought to himself and said to me that he could build our house and this is what he started doing. First he made our tv looking like, well you have a look  .........




                                                well what do you think                                                                         






Second he made our table that looks like this .........









                                                         well its not going to fit
                                                             my cup of tea on it
               




Thirdly he made our sofa looking like this .............











                                                          its a bit to bumpy for me



And finnaly he made our photo frame looking like so .............














                                                                  were has the
                                                                   picture gone
          

It took cameron roughly 2 hours 15 minuets to get to the stage he is at now, after waiting and waiting for him to stop for a bit he finnaly stoped and this is what it looks like now.



its fit for a mouse








                                                         look how happy he is

What do you think? except from our tv is black and our walls are cream its pretty good i reckon. Now he has started carrying on with his house and run out of lego and stoped again and then went and found some more, well it doesnt matter he never stops when it comes to lego anyway, i will just have to leave it here for now otherwise i will be typing for days  :)
