Huff and puff out my candles
Happy birthday to me!
Didn't want to let the absence of a maid change my plan to have it at home. It was a little hectic that morning though... had to clean house, wash and hang clothes, make and feed breakfast to the kids (who woke up one by one), cook, get ready chairs/plates/cutlery etc and once hubby woke up, go out to procure a cake.
Guests arrived around noon...
Everybody... play play play
(Ah Mah is actually playing blocks with the kids, not by herself hehe)
Balloon swords/sausages for all!
Then the resident balloon-maker made giraffes, dogs...
Menu was almost the same as for JE's birthday, only this time some dishes didn't turn out as well - a little overcooked or salty or just plain not-so-nice. Next time I think I won't cook, or maybe buy cook some, buy some. No need to torture myself nor my guests! Then again, I never learn and next time might well get all gung-ho to cook again heh. At least I have no plans to make the cake myself!
Happy 2nd birthday to my second little princess!

Stacy, u must be really really tired after the day ended. But its all worth it. Haha, you are like me too. I know the feeling when you are planning some party at home and you want to try to cook this dish and that dish... and the end result may not turn out how we want it to be. You tell yourself ,,, no more the disappointment...few months down the road...itching again.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, hats off to you for handling the day so well...love the family photo of all four of you...
Happy belated birthday to your 2nd little princess. Looks like all the children had really good fun during the party.
