I Am One


Ian is officially one-year-old! We did not hold any birthday bash for him, as we felt that it was better to focus our attention on him, instead of diverting our attention to entertaining guests.

On 22 March, he had a mini-party at his paternal grandparents'...


The birthday cake, baked with love by Mummy. Cake flavour: Black Forest.


We spent the previous night searching for Phoon Huat to buy the ingredients and decorations, as the branch at Sembawang had closed down. The Elmo figurine came from the Sesame Street toppers (bought from Amazon).


As a tradition, Ian had to choose 3 items from the tray...Abacus was his first pick.



Next choice: Ruler.



And the last pick: Pen.


On the actual day 29 March, Daddy spent the morning working. We brought him to the LNT class in the afternoon and spent the day shopping for a new camera at SLS. We also bought a Canon Selphy printer to print photos. Both items costed over $600+. Hubby commented that it seemed like we were buying for myself rather than for Ian's birthday!


After the trip at SLS, we went to United Square for dinner, and also to buy a pair of shoes for him. It was a simple day, but I hope that Ian had enjoyed our company.

I agree that focus should be on the birthday boy/girl instead of busying ourselves with guests and stuff. Looks like Ian had fun on his birthday too~! ^^

Happy 1st Birthday, Ian!
I missed reading about you for sometime. Mummy too busy?
Has he started walking already? ^_^

Hi both,

Thanks for following this blog! Really sorry for MIA, cos we have been so busy recently. Hubby is working non-stop and I spent my spare time chasing after Ian and cleaning up the house. :( Hardly surfed too. I miss internet.
