Zebedee's shower tea

We had a lovely girly afternoon tea yesterday. Twelve of us got together to celebrate baby Zebedee's 101st day on the planet.
When he was born, he weighed one pound...now he's three pounds and four ounces.
Unfortunately his Royal tinieness couldn't attend because he's still in hospital. But here's a bad copy of a good photo of him with his gorgeous Mum Clarissa
Everyone brought something to eat. We had cucumber sandwiches & zillions of cups of tea, lemon shortbreads & tiny stuffed crab. Tessie made the most amazing cup cakes with edible glitter & chrystalized violets on top.
Clarissa's sister Emma made a splendid cake for Zebedee with a model of him inside their bell tent.
Here's a picture of the little blanket that Robyn & I & Di Langley made for him.
Afterwards I asked Clarissa if she felt showered, she sat there with one hand draped over her Mum's knees & the other hand on her sisters back & she said "I feel Fuckin' showered", and they all laughed hysterically.
