JL’s 5th Birthday

Yes, Mummy knew this is a long overdue post more than one month from JL’s actual birthday…sorry…

It was a simple with no big party for JL but lots of cakes. After all the cakes, maybe Mummy should consider to cleanse and detoxify Mummy’s digestive system especially after reading about Colonix reviews.

13Mar09 Friday – Kindy
JL’s birthday fell on Kindy Term holidays. So we decided to celebrate on 13Mar09 (Friday) which was the last day before the holidays started. At first we thought of just make it simple by getting one cake. However, the price was almost the same as getting cupcakes. Getting cupcakes would be a better option because JL loved distributing cupcakes to his classmates and less messy as no cutting cake was required. This year JL wanted all the characters in Winnie the Pooh and the gang (Last year was Mickey Mouse and the gang). He got 11 characters with each character on 6 cupcakes. So PaPa designed for JL by arranging 11 different characters in a row. There were 6 rows and 1 row in the middle was JL’s name.

19Mar09 Thursday – Actual BirthdayPaPa was busy. Mummy took off from 19-20 March 2009 to spend time with JL and AL. 19Mar09, Mummy took JL to eat at TGIF, Sunway Pyramid (a place we didn’t always go for our meal) with AL, KongKong and PohPoh. JL had free meal and also free cake. Then we walked around.
PaPa had class that nite but fortunately, his class over quite early that PaPa rushed to a few bakery shops hunting for small cupcakes to celebrate on his actual birthday. PaPa managed to get two and we had our mini celebration at home just four of us.

20Mar09 Friday – Family OutingPaPa tried to come back a bit early than his normal time (yes PaPa’s normal time was usually about 730pm or later). JL loved Japanese food. PaPa wanted to bring JL to Midvalley to play in the play area in Jusco. JL would usually get to play during special occasions which included his birthdays. Since it was late and we wanted less crowded place, we ended up in a Japanese Restaurant in TheGardens. JL loved every moment. Don’t forget AL enjoying seeing the menu too… It was our family rare moment to eat in this type of place which we considered luxury to us.

After dinner, we rushed over to Jusco to let JL play a few games before the shopping mall closed. JL had fun time playing with PaPa and AL also had fun riding on one of the ride with JL.

21Mar09 Saturday– Extended Family CelebrationKongKong, PohPoh, MahMah, Tai Pak, Pak Leong, Yi Yee, Sam Yee, Sam Yee Cheong, Aunty PohPoh Pat, Topaz and Orion all came and squeezed in our small apartment to see JL cut his Ben-10 cake (JL wanted Strawberry Yogurt Cake from Secret Recipe – quite pricey but since there was no any big party, we decided it would be ok to get one for him). KongKong bought some Satay. We ate cake and Satay while chit chatting. JL got lots of gifts and mostly mini Lego as requested by JL because it would be too expensive to get the big set Lego. JL actually wanted the big set Lego which costs a few hundred but we negotiated with him that it would be too costly, so he was ok with the mini Lego.

22Mar09 Sunday – ChurchWe bought a mini cake for JL to celebrate with his church friends. The teachers prayed for him and he ate the cake happily with his friends.

Blessed Birthday JL boy,

We hope you were happy with the simple celebration..
We love you a lot..Love,

PaPa, Mummy & AL girl
