Happy Birthday Daddy! Daddy's birthday was on Friday and he had a lovely day. We got him some nice presents. A replica 'Escape to Victory' football shirt, some sweeties, some speakers for his iPhone and Daddy also got a jumper and some Lego which I helped him build in the morning. On Saturday we then went on a 'Birthday Outing' and it was a great outing! Lottie and me were moved to the car whilst we were sleeping as Mummy and Daddy set off early to go to the Lake District. I got dressed at a service station and we then went to Haverthwaite where we we going for a ride on a steam train! 
It wasn't a little pretend steam train, but a real-life-proper-full-size steam train. I got to watch it back up to the carriages and then we all climb aboard. We had tea and cake and juice and a gingerbread man on the train and Mummy's cake was huge! We travelled on the train to Lakeside and we got off the train and we then went for a ride on a big white boat! It was lovely weather so we sat on the roof of the boat. I saw a water-skier, some boats, swans and ducks and a turtle-dinosaur (a crocodile) and a whale. 
The boat stopped at Bowness-on-Windermere and we got off and had a picnic. Daddy got me a ball and we played with that for a while. It was very sunny and lovely. Soon it was time to go home so we had to get back on the boat. I had a little snooze on the boat journey on the way back but I woke up in time to got back on the train. On the way back I spent most of the journey looking out of the window of the door. The train smoke smelt funny and it was great to see the engine when we went round a bend. It was the best birthday outing ever!
