Annabelle's 2nd Birthday

Annabelle is 2 years old in June and I only post up her birthday celebration now :P :P  Hope it's not too late :) :)

Again, sourcing for her cake is so hard as usual and finally,we have agreed for this design on the very last minutes with the baker and actually, I really love this cake and it's my most favourite cake over the past years.  Just love the whole design and setting on the cake itself and I am actually over the moon that we are finally having a non fondant cake for the kid :)

Daddy has flew back specially for this princess's 2nd birthday and we booked for a family dinner at FULLHOUSE restaurant which just opened it's newest branch in KK not long ago.  Princess Belle is dressed up in her little Swan fairy white tutu and put on her blink blink shoes which I source from Bangkok.  Oh, she looks so cute isn't she??? :) :)



Finally this 2 princess didn't fight for once and holding hands waiting for the seats .... just because their very very fierce stern Kung Kung (grandpa) is joining us for dinner :P :P

Somehow the dinner turn out to be a little 'tense' at the restaurant due to 2 active kids and a military and stern type of grandpa who doesn't like kids to make a mess on their dinning table or make noise, plus he couldn't find his usual favourites 'chicken chop' on the menu and starts complaining :( :( but .... I am glad that everything turns out ok and we ended the dinner in a rush manner.

  


Little Annabelle really loves her cake and can't wait to put her fingers on them.  The fragile big fondant butterfly on the cake (refer 1st picture above) didn't survive from her constant touching, pulling and twisting and fall apart immediately  so I replaced the decorations with 2 cute candles instead :)  So hard to maintain the original shape of the cake when kids, especially my 2 active kids were anywhere near it.  But hey, it's the kids birthday and it's meant to be like that, isn't it :) :)




Finally after the photography sessions, it's totally ANNABELLE'S TIME!!!!!  With a green go button shown, she quickly lower her head and then take a deep bite onto those better cream and having a feast!!  :D :D  Look at her smile and that creamy face of hers and you would know how happy she was to finally allow to do what she wants with her very own birthday cake :) 




Following was, her most favourite part - poking those little fingers into the cake.  She just love doing this and she has done that on her Jie Jie Angel's birthday too.  Must be feeling so good dipping those finger in rich cream and enjoying those sweet destruction of hers :)




Pressie time finally!  I think both girls were so exited that Angel has forgotten that it's Mei Mei Annabelle's birthday. She would helpfully tore away all those wrapper for Annabelle as if it's her own birthday :)


So that's a glimpse of what Annabelle gets for her 2nd birthday.  An Ang Pow from her Grandpa, A Mother Garden picnic set from Mommy and Daddy, a Vtech caterpillar toys also from Mommy and Daddy, a kids kitchen stove set which she absolutely love from her beloved Grandma, a Fisher Price drum set from her Uncle and finally, a panda bear maze set also from Mommy and Daddy.



Mommy and Daddy hope that you have a blast and you are looking so sweet on your birthday :) We love you so much and mommy just hope that as you gets older, you and your Jie Jie will quarrel less and fight less over the same toy ya :)  

Kisses and lots of love from Mommy, Daddy and Jie Jie Angel.  Happy Birthday to my sweet baby Annabelle!

Oh No! I Found A White Hair!

Oh No .....!!!  What's that I just saw??!!  

Is it a bird?  Is it a plane?  No .... it's a strand of WHITE HAIR!!! Uuurrrgghhhh .......

Oh no!!!  OH NO!!!!  Totally unexpected and I do not anticipated to find a strand of white hair growing at this age!!  No No No!!  I still didn't see it there yesterday but today, puffff ~~~ it just appear from nowhere, just like that!

Not enough vitamins?  Growing old too fast??  Thinking too much lately???  Working too hard????  Worrying too much?????  

Must be worrying too much!!  Hhhhmmmmm ..... Maybe ....... just maybe ...... *thinking*

But hey!!  What can a 5-year-old worried until white hair starts popping out from this kiddo's head?

Oh no .... My poor Angel :'(

I'm A .... What?

As Angel gets older, I have stopped tidying after her and asked her to have her share in tidying up around the house for things that she messed up with. My sofa cushion will forever not staying at where they suppose to be just 5 minutes after I put them back. And the toys will never ever stays inside their toy box even when they are not played.

I also starts asking her to make her own bed and our bed too (although I will probably redo it after her most of the time) just to put her into a habit of making her bed every morning during weekends and also "keep her occupied" while I was busy preparing breakfast in the kitchen.

Then one day, while I asked her to make the beds while I was busy preparing breakfast in the kitchen. She must be very frustrated about this bed making routine and then suddenly I hear her shouting from inside the bedroom.

"Urrrghhh ...... Mommy, I am so tired of making the beds and keeping all my toys everyday and doing EVERYTHING!! Why do I need to do this everytime and you are doing NOTHING?"

Then she continues ....
"Are you a STEPMOTHER asking me to do all these, huh????!!!!"

"I'm a ... What????"  I am really speechless. So I just put down the halfway done breakfast and say to her:

"Ok, then your Stepmother will start tidying up the bed and you please make breakfast for yourself ok, Cinderella? After that starts vacuum the floor, mopping and hang the clothes outside the house too my sweetheart. After that go to the market and do groceries and prepare for lunch too ya ......."

Then suddenly she stopped me half way and say

"OK OK OK ..... I will make my bed now and can you please stop talking and CONCENTRATE in making breakfast, Mommy?"

Sigh ...... Really kek-sei-ngo la.
