Tommy's first birthday party/ La primera fiesta de cumpleanos de Tommy

On Saturday Thomas went to his first birthday party. Aiden and Danielle's (friends from school) son, Lorcan, was 3 and had a fancy dress party. Thomas went as a Roman soldier (tunic by mum, armour and helmet by dad). After some persuading we got him in his tunic and armour but he didn't fancy the helmet. He had a really good time and played very nicely with the other children (they were mostly big boys!).

El sabado pasado Thomas fue a su primera fiesta de cumpleanos. El hijo de Aiden y Danielle (amigos nuestros de colegio) Lorcan, cumplia 3 anos y celebraba una fiesta de disfraces. Thomas se disfrazo de soldado romano (tunica hecho por mama/ armadura y casco por papa). Al principio Thomas no queria ponerse el disfraz pero al final se puso la tunica y la armadura. Paso un muy buen rato con sus amigitos (eran chicos mayores).
