1st Birthday Bash

This birthday bash came as quite an impromptu decision. Initially, we reckon that Mei Mei will be too young to realise what's going on, so was thinking to keep it simple with just a birthday cake.

Well, being a first-time parent, i just couldn't bear to let this special day of her lifetime, to be just another usual day. We decided to keep this affair simple with our immediate family (as their kids are Mei Mei's playmates). Also, it it should be a day that Mei Mei will throughly enjoy herself, same for the kids who will be attending this party.

We started off with nothing but a contact for the caterer, and it just sprouted to more ideas like birthday decor, goodie bags (i love this part), converting her room into a playground and finally choosing the cute icing that goes onto her birthday cupcakes. I definitely enjoyed myself from the planning, and can't wait for the her 2nd birthday to happen! As for Mei Mei, well, her photos just explains it all.

The best shot of the day!

Birthday wishes from Mummy's best pals - who wasn't invited as it was exclusive to those 7 years old and below.

The traditional "chicken drumstick" ceremony (which must be complete with a new pair of walking shoes and clothes to mark her new beginning as a toddler")

Another cake-cutting on her actual day - In fact, the "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" song became her fav song after her party, never fails to make her clap in joy.

don't play play..I'm 1 year old already you know!
