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!

A Very Special Lantern From Mommy

I have always wanted to make a real lantern for my girls but just do not know where to start. Until this year before the Lantern Festival, I really couldn't find a decent lantern for the girls back home while Angel was asking for a 'candle' lantern instead of those electronics light bulbed lantern, then I have no choice but to make one myself. 

And believe me, it's not an easy job for a Mommy!!!  (Mommy doesn't program to make lanterns ok??  hahahaha.)  Luckily all the materials were source before our return from China which makes things less hassle. I think I would have running around like a mad woman for I really have no idea where can I get all the material here.  

Initially, I was so naive that hoping both girls could participate in the lantern making process. But at the end, Angel grab hold of the glue and start glueing whatever objects she could find, dancing around with the dangerous wire poking everything and everyone, deliberately cutting my hard work - the paper dots I cut for decorations into half (I really can't believe she done that!!!!), tangling the strings I used to hang those lanterns and then start using the lantern stick as a sword hitting almost everything that she could find, etc etc etc  ....... then I give up!! This process is totally insane and mission impossible with a very active kid who doesn't take instruction and wants to make destruction around!! So after putting both girls to sleep, with a very sleepy eyes while I have a heavy head due to the flu bug attacking me (call that lucky!!!) yet still burning midnight oil for 2 days, Finally, mommy's first ever lantern for both girls are done!! Yippie!!



Well as their wishes .... Annabelle asked for a Furry Bunny design while Angel wanted so much for a Colourful Polka Dots Bunny Lantern :) Angel did help to cut some of the dots used for her bunny and we are so please with the design :)



I am so glad that the lantern was complete just in time!!  So later of the day, we brought both girls to attend the Lantern Party at our neighbourhood and they are having such a blast!  I think both of them are so happy asking mommy to relight the candle inside their lantern as the strong wind blows it off every 10 minutes.  But hey, that's the FUN part of having a candle lighted lantern, isn't it?  ^_^  

I really miss those days when we are still carrying those traditional lanterns and those "lantern burning" experience which bound to be happen sooner or later and would guess whose lantern will get burned first!!  Hehehehe ....  but but but, having to say that, I do hope both Annabelle and Angel will not burned down mommy's "hard work" so fast and before the real Lantern Festival Day.   



Well, another wished/dreams fulfilled for me and my girls!!

I do hope that some day when they are older, they will still remember that their Mommy ever make them their very own lantern once open a time ...... ^_^

Happy Lantern Festival to All Ya ^_^ 
And hoping everyone will have a blast time celebrating with family and friends ^_^

My Not-So-Happy Birthday 2012 ??

Another very belated post ....... :P

I celebrate my birthday 6 months ago and I flew to Hong Kong to meet up with hubby for my big day. Sounds great?? If you think it should be a great fun birthday that I had, please hold your horses!!! :P

Dragon air always prepared the nicest meal on board. Too bad they didn't serve Haagen Dazs ice cream that day coz I have been looking forward to it whenever I flew to HK, hehehehe.



Birthday cakes in Hong Kong are very cute!!! Actually I have ordered another cake from the bakery and then when I saw this one, oh, can't resist myself from having another Hello Kitty cake!! ho ho ho ho!!! I bet Angel would love this cake too so I bought it finally. And when the shop assistant asked me how many candles I need for the birthday kid (yes, she said "siu-pang-yao" meaning kid), I paused awhile and say "One please" LoL

** And true enough, when I show Angel the picture of my Hello Kitty cake after my return, she bawled out loudly:
"Wuahhh ~~~~~ Why didn't you invite me to your birthday party???!!!!!! You eat the Hello Kitty cake without me?????!!!!" O.o and then give me the most unbelievable look on her face and started to cry profusely!!! *Oh dear, that's really not what I'd expected, sigh. *



And on my most awaited birthday dinner, we set for dinner at 6pm but I have waited for hubby until 8pm where the shops in Queen's Road started to closed and I yet to see hubby's face! So I called him again and guess what, he is still having his nice cup of tea (or was it beer???) with his friends and asked me to wait for another 10 minutes O.o I thought his 10 minutes was an hour ago??

And then worst still, he called me 20 minutes later and said to me, "XXX says he wants to come along for our dinner and we will be leaving in 'SOON' ya cos he is still chit chatting with friends and refusing to leave."

Soon???? I have been standing on the cold dark street till 8.40pm waiting for him since 6pm and feeling so hungry and fuming mad, then I told him:

"You can have your dinner with XXX yourself!!! The shops is all closed now and don't you think 2 1/2 hour is too much for 10 minutes???!! This is ridiculous!!! I am fine if it's a normal day but i bet you have forgotten that it's your wife's birthday today and I do not need XXX to celebrate candle light dinner on my birthday with me coz I can't smile to anybody at this moment!! I didn't come to HK purposely to eat 'west-north' wind standing cold on the street while you are drinking beer happily with your friends there??? You should have told me earlier dinner is at 9pm and not 10 minutes since 6pm??!!! Don't you think that you are going over the board????!!! Enjoy your BEER!!!!!!" Then I just slam down the phone.

Gosh ...... when "Men + Beer + friends", I tell you, everything in mind including time will vanished into thin air, "pufff!!!", just like that, trust me!! And I bet they can't even remember their name too, even own wifey's birthday!!! :( :(

Most shop has closed at 8pm on Queens Road and I have no where to eat in the malls so I just walked up to Yung-Kee Restaurant around the corner and ordered their famous Goose Rice + Char Siew + the famous Century egg to take away!

I am so mad that I switched my phone off, and then opened my take-away dinner telling myself, "Happy Birthday to you eating take away on your birthday in HK and sigh ...... this yummy looking rice is such a waste coz at this moment, I think eating Dragon-Meat would be tasteless too!!!!"

And then I scope 1 spoon of rice into my mouth and O.o ......... *silence* My oh my!!!!!! *with my eyebrow raised* That's so DELICIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Even after the rice turn cold and with a super-duper angry mood, the rice still taste HEAVENLY!!!!!! That's the most tasty goose rice I have ever had in Yung Kee (although it's not my first time) and I quickly wallop the takeaway squeaky clean and all negative mood has been sweep thousand miles away with this heavenly scrumptious meal! The century eggs was so marvelous and what makes it extra special was that pink marinated ginger at the side!! Oh my, hardly words can describe!!!!



I gone to bed with a fully satisfied tummy and a big big smile on my face + some uncontrollable tears at the corner of my eyes of coarse :P Hubby was finally back to the hotel at the wee hours and having his 'good night sleep' on the carpet floor that night while his wife has been sound asleep at 11pm after the most wonderful and satisfying meal, (forgotten to take her bath too due to over eating!!! Opppss!) Hubby only returned to the hotel at 1am according to him (*_*) Ridiculous or not??? If you were as curious as me on what on earth has he been doing till 1am that night? He told me he has been rushing down to Queen's Road abandoning all his friendfs after I slammed his phone down and was searching for me till 10pm on the street *_*. After he couldn't find me there, he then rush back to the MTR station near our hotel and waited for me at the MRT entrance hoping to see my return till the MTR closed at 1am. His feet were swollen due to too many walking and standing *_* and asked me "touching" and "romantic" or not and can I forgive him due to his hard work??? O.o

My jaw dropped when I hear what he say! I was thinking "What's wrong with this man??? What was he thinking!!" No wonder some said that "Men are from MARS" and now I believe it!!! *sigh*
*p/s: At this moment, I can't stop laughing while jotting this down cos it's really ridiculous and absolutely hilarious!!*

So in order to make up to me, he dragged me into this shop and asked me to choose something and anything as my birthday gift and also served as a 'punishment' to him! Fire is still burning inside me but of course, I didn't burnt a hole in his pocket just because I am angry. The fact was, I just bought one and I don't plan to buy another bag which I don't fancy. At the end so as to make him feel better, I bought a key chain (less then RM2,000) and hubby quickly sign his card happy and said to me, "Lao-Po, you are so kind to me!!!" *O.o*

Now I was thinking, will I act differently if the shop he dragged me to was the double C or the H shop?? *evil smile*



And for the rest of the day, surprisingly my burning flame doesn't effected my taste buds at all. I had the most delicious Almond Dessert Soup at 大良八记 and also the most wonderful porridge at 富记粥品。Both are a very small shops lots situated at the most unnoticeable locations and if you don't look hard, you might just walk passed the shop without realising it. I can't remember the exact address for both shops but I think when you Google it, you would be able to find it.


Then out of recommendation from hubby's friend, we had Japanese Meal for our dinner next night. This is the most delicious Japanese meal I have ever had in Hong Kong! It's call 和民 and is an international chain japanese restaurant in many countries such as China and Singapore. But I think the one in HK taste better compare to the one in Shanghai. I am relatively surprised that due to the bad incident, my mood hasn't been affected much throughout the trip nor my taste buds! :D Thank God!!


Maybe it's due to 镛记 fabulous goose rice and century egg that saves my day? ....... Or I am already immune and all set to move on to MARS and survived?????

I am actually having a great birthday (apart from that incident of course!) although someone can still sense hot smokes pipping out from the top of my head throughout the trip!!! I am blessed and I do hope that this is just an one off incident. So I have learn my lesson, absolutely "NO beer + friends" policies prior to important occasions even it's just a quick one to avoid unnecessary 'disaster' happening. Hahahahaha.

Happy Belated 2012 birthday to me! :P :P What a 'memorable' birthday thanks to a person call Hubby :p :p

Happy 5th Birthday Angel - Part 2

Oh dear ..... Angel's birthday posts still not yet completed till now so ok, I will make it a quick one coz I have been dragging it for way too long :P

She was dressed like a Princess (Snow White is a Princess too right? :P) and she was very happy indeed.


On the day itself, lovely grandma has prepared Angel's usual birthday meal with Mee Suah + a very huge drumstick + red eggs. She requested for pure grapes juice too which she doesn't gets to drink very often and wallop up everything in satisfaction!


And then, she requested for her sandwich 'in bento' style after her afternoon bath 1 hour later! A girl with big appetite!! Luckily grandma is a very handy person and came out with those lovely heart shaped chicken sandwiches in no time and makes her a very happy birthday girl :) :)


We had a simple dinner at T.H western restaurant with our immediate family members and the highlight of the night was the cake cutting session. This year's birthday theme was Snow While instead of her usual Hello Kitty Theme and I am glad that she loves her Snow White cake after I told her that Snow White is a Princess and Good Friends to Hello Kitty too coz all of them know each other in the cartoon world (opppsss .... a big white lie which works).


This year, little Annabelle is joining the celebration for the very first time :) Both are so delighted to see the cakes and little Annabelle can't wait to lay her hands on those pretty cakes, touching and dismantled all the leaves and pulling all the deco out when we are not looking too (>.<)


Then while we are snapping pictures happily and suddenly we heard a loud shout from Angel the birthday girl "MOMMY!!! LOOK WHAT ANNABELLE DID!!!!" and when we looked ......

Oh NO .... little Annabelle has pulled Snow White heads off from the cake while I saw tears started to form in her big round eyes although she tries to laugh it off :P Luckily I was quick enough to make a joke out of it and quickly fixed poor Snow White heads back to where it's suppose to be (with a missing nose which couldn't be fixed :( :( ) and glad that no one noticed the missing nose and quickly pull it over without bigger drama happening with a birthday song. Phew ......


Angel insisted to have the sparkled Candles at the side which truly scared both the girls away when it actually produced tiny little sparkles when lit O.o No more sparkled candles for her birthday as she puts it, because it looks scary acording to her :P :P



Angel got a lot of pressie from us and actually she had more but I have kept some of the gifts away and only to give her after some time. Her toy box are overloaded at grandma's!!!



A very happy girl posing with all her gifts! She would exclaimed out loud each time she opened up a gift :) :)


And among those gifts, this is her most favourite gift which she got from her beloved Grandma! She purposely requested for a Notebook with a 'mouse' and her wish came through that night!

"WAAHHH!! Ah Mah, how you know I wanted this???!!!" She asked grandma with her big wide eyes opened! :P :P


Taa daaa ...... Below is the gift from Mommy, the full set of Dr. Seuss Collection which she loves it to bits day by day. Certainly one of the greatest gifts I have ever got for Angel (as per her requests) because I can see her giggle away happily every night whenever she reads them and still finds it amusing after reading them for 'n' times.

That's the magical part of Dr. Suess book. I must admit that I really think that it would be a very boring book just by looking at its simple sketches and story line until I really read them to Angel.

Now, I have learn something ...... Never judge a book by it's cover!!! :P

"Mommy, how do you know I wanted this Cat In The Hat Books too?? Huh? Huh? Tell me! Tell me!" :P :P Kids are so cute, aren't they :P


Just with a blow off the candles, my girl has turned 5. That night, while stroking her hair to sleep, I told Angel,

"Angel, you are growing up so fast :) Big girl already lo and few more years later, you can't stick to mommy like you used to already."

She was very kan-cheong and replied:

"But Mommy, I wish I can grow up slower ~~~. I want to grow up slowly and not too fast ok, mommy?? I want to be 5 years old long long long long time so that I can stick to mommy for long long long long time EVER and FOREVER."


Of course my Baby :) You would always be my Baby girl forever and ever and glad to have you in our live. Happy 5th Birthday Angel Darling!!! We love you so much!!

Happy 5th Birthday Angel - Part 1

Angel celebrates her 5th Birthday few weeks ago. My girl is 5 now!!!! Kids really grow up so fast, aren't they :)

And we had an early celebration with Hubby 1 week before her actual birthday and when asked about what birthday present that she wants, there she goes again," How I wish I have a Hello Kitty!"

Hello Kitty again?? She have way too many Hello Kitty already to be honest. Imagine, Hello Kitty for Christmas, Hello Kitty for birthday, Hello Kitty for New Year, Hello Kitty for Children's day, she wants Hello Kitty soft toys, Hello Kitty bags, Hello Kitty watches, Hello Kitty Bottle, Hello Kitty shirt, Hello Kitty panties, and Hello Kitty for basically EVERYTHING .... :( :( To the extreme, she even wants me to get her the Hello Kitty panty liner which she saw in Watson which I don't know why on earth does she need a panty liner!!! @_@


And she handpicked her own birthday cake too this year! And guess what, she insisted to have the same birthday cake as mommy's birthday last year (hubby bought me that cake for some reason!). Ok ok, since it's her birthday, she is the boss, no choice as long as she is happy.

Can't wait to see her cake! :P :P


*laugh* Yup, she got herself another Hello Kitty cake again!!!! And that's her 3rd consecutive year that she is having a Hello Kitty cake on her birthday!!! Sigh ..... Hello Kitty cake every year and still never gets bored, that's way too much! I am kind of having phobia when I saw another Hello Kitty cake already, no joking here .... *sweat*

But she is indeed very happy with her cake! She said to me, " Mommy, I feel GLAD that I have my Hello Kitty cake again!" *see??* A big Hello Kitty fan!!!


After the birthday song, we asked her to have the first bite of her cake cos it's her birthday! She stares at me for a moment then ....... she bite into poor Hello Kitty's ear :P The naughty daddy saw it and then suddenly pushed Angel face onto the cake ...... Muahahahaha!!!! A very 'creamy' birthday girl she has turned into :P :P



She can't stop laughing and laughing and laughing and laughing till she was rolling on the floor for daddy's naughty act! kekekekeke ..... she suggested that we have a cake fight and putting fresh cream on each other's face but NO THANKS my dear ..... we told her that only birthday girl gets to have such 'privilege" of having creams on her face, luckily she didn't pressed further *phew*

(Few days later, Annabelle saw Angel's video and pictures loaded with cream on her face and cried out very very loud!!!!! She is indeed horrified and told us "不要这样嘛!!!" and showing us the gesture not to push Angel's face onto the cake :P :P Poor Mei Mei Annabelle.)


At 5 years old, Angel got her first ever remote control mini bike from Daddy!!! :) :) Hubby said he was planning to get a remote helicopter for Angel at first but oh boy, I am so glad that he didn't or else, I will surely fainted!!!!!!

And look at the little girl's eyes ~~~, all brighten up and sparkled brightly when she saw her 1st remote control bike!! Seeing that she is so happy, we are very very happy too :) :) :)



Happy 5th Birthday my girl.

p/s: and we have another celebration with her on her actual birthday itself. Too bad that her kindergarten doesn't allow birthday celebration in school.

Annabelle is 1 Year Old - 2011

(A very belated post again .... :P)

This is a very very x10000 belated post (and much more to come too, aikkks)!!!! Annabelle is almost 2 years old already and yet, I only started to post about her 1st birthday celebration in June last year, sigh! What to do, I was blocked from access blogspot nor facebook from Shanghai :(


At first, really so much "dramas" of getting Annabelle's first birthday cake! Everyone seems so busy and those who can bake good cakes seems to be so 'LCLY' (if you know what I mean :P :P) But finally, a found a malay baker who come to my rescue and I am really thankful to her! At last, what I want was beautifully baked, phew :) :)


We flew back to my hometown for the celebration and we certainly had the most wonderful Chinese dinner at MLH restaurant with families and friends (the family of Annabelle's nanny). Glad that both kids were very well behave that day and Annabelle got her first taste of 'restaurant food' on her 1st birthday :P :P


I also got a big and unforgettable birthday surprise from my little Annabelle on Annabelle's cake blowing ceremony! When we was singing birthday song and taking family pictures, suddenly Annabelle lean over and give me her first kiss!!!!!!! *almost in tears of joy*

My oh my!!! Actually I haven't seen her for months and I just got to see her again few days before her birthday which I think she has no memories of me at all. And yet, she just suddenly lean over and kiss me which surprised everyone! Wuahahahahahaha ...... Until now I also don't know what makes her do that as she is not those kissy-type of baby .... but I am glad she did!! That's the best gift from her that I will remember for the rest of my life ^_^


^ ^ Annabelle's first kiss to mommy!!! Then both of them kiss me non stopped till I was almost in tears of joy :)


But throughout the celebration, someone is not-so-happy and start crying and making a lot of trouble just because it's not 'her' birthday *sigh* She was not very please that she doesn't have all the attention anymore and the cake is not hers :P My Poor Angel.


^ ^ Although Annabelle can't blow out the candles but she is able to cut the cake after I show her for the first time :P
There she was, cutting her 1st birthday cake all by herself .... horizontally :P :P



^ ^ Angel Jie Jie also wants to have her own cake cutting session :P She is not totally happy in the previous picture, isn't she :P



^ ^ My baby Annabelle is finally 1 year old!!! Time flies!!!!


Although we have spend lesser time with Annabelle for the past 1 year but we do hope she knows that Mommy, Daddy and Jie Jie Angel loves her very very much!!!! She is just one sweet little girl to be with and honestly, I really enjoy spending time with her and this is the first time that I feel like I am a true mother to a baby girl (enjoying motherhood) rather then shouting all day long like a MAD MAD mama at the forever crying kiddo (although I must admit that Angel has grown up to be such a sweetheart now ^_^)



"My Annabelle baby, Mommy hope that you would continue to grow up strong and healthy and most importantly happily enjoying your childhood ya! Mommy and Daddy will love you forever my little Belle!

Happy First Birthday little Princess!"

Valentine's Day 2012 with no Valentine

Days before Valentine's Day, I always tell myself that I don't need expensive flowers on Valentine's Day and being rip-off by the florists for something that I do not really fond of! No no to flowers!!!!!


But as days went by, watching all the wives/girlfriends flashing their sweet red blossoms pictures in facebook, I started to feel pity for myself as my hubby totally forgotten all about me in the far faraway land back in hometown all alone with my 2 girls while he is in Shanghai. And this is my first Valentine's Day without hubby around too!!! *Sob sob* Then suddenly I heard honk! honk! and my mom rush into my room and handed me these

-

-

-

-

-

-

-

-

^ ^ It says: Dear Carol, Happy Valentine's Day, from Hubby!


I asked my mom: "You bought it for me? Don't bluff me ah!!! Really from him?"

Ok, this man has not forgotten all about his wife after all! Aikss ... no chance to "faat-lan-zha" with him already and called him straight away with a different voice tone! :P

Now I realised that flowers really are most women's soft spot! It will magically drives all negative moods away ...... ^_^


^ ^ Except for this young lady! She absolutely hates the flowers getting anywhere near her and frown frown frown! :P :P



^ ^ But this lady, it is totally different! She loves 'em and asked whether it's from daddy for her :)

Angel really thought daddy sent her those flowers and tell me she loves it so much but reinstate that she doesn't want to get married with daddy and have babies! :P
Angel also gives me a big hug when coming back from her school and wish me Happy Valentine's Day as instructed by her class teacher! That's very sweet of her and I do hope that I will get her hugs and kisses everyday for Valentine's Day.

But after D day, all these flowers has been sitting in the living room and I do not know what to do with them. Such a waste ....... and starts wondering how nice if we can cash that and used it for something more well worthy and useful!! OK, I must remember no flowers! no flowers! again next year :P



Luckily few days later, we passed it to our neighbour to turn it into dry flowers. Problems solved at last ^_^


Then I asked hubby, no cards from him?? He then sent me an email and asked me to help him post it onto facebook!! Haaiii .... that one also need help? I didn't but that's what he wrote:

"BB,
I need to say thank you for not giving up on me so far because I know that all I have done to you so far are well below what a husband should do. I really appreciate what you have sacrificed for taking care of our two little “angels” without me alone. So, I would like to take this opportunity to say Sorry to you and ………
Happy Valentine's Day!
Love,
XXX"


That's my Valentine's Day 2012 ....... ^_^

Happy Children's Day

We will be celebrating Children's Day (1st June) here in Shanghai and I think schools around here will be closing for 1 day to celebrate Children's Days too.

Sales were going on in most toys shops and parents were rushing to get some gifts to cheer up their kids while bakeries were catering for all sorts of cute cakes celebrating the day :)

I also did some baking for the day to cheer up my little girl and the little cupcakes were finally done with hubby and little Angel's "help" :) She even make 2 of her own cupcakes *smile* Can you spot them? (Answers at the bottom page)

This is my first fondant cupcakes and I just love the vibrant colours which goes well with the Children's Day theme ^_^






Happy Children's Day to all the Children in this world ^_^

Daddy and mommy love you all so so much! *muaks*



P/s: Top left (apple tree) and lower right (rainbow?) was Angel's creation ^_^
