Annabelle 2yrs Old: Pre, Actual & Post Birthday (Backdated Post)

It is really true what my colleague told me recently in our conversation.

Colleague:"Hi, Happy Belated Birthday to you. How did you celebrate your birthday?"
Me:"O... Thanks... Just normal... we ... " (explained to her what I did)
Colleague replied:"Ya.. now you have children... their celebration is much more important!"

Indeed, her celebration is much more important despite mine birthday is just 11 days apart from hers.

On the 28th July 2013, we had an earlier celebration for Annabelle with her gong-gong, po-po, yi-ma, yi-yi, cheong-cheong and her cousins. That celebration was simple yet memorable for the kids. Annabelle received gifts from her kor kor, jie jie, and mei mei... Wonderful!

On the 4th Aug 2013, actual day of her birthday; we brought her to JKids to let her have fun. We reached there around 4.30pm; she is showing her smiles, laughs and cheers throughout the whole time when she was there. We were there for a good 2.5 hours, at about 7++pm; we adjourned to Otak Otak Place for dinner with our family and friends. Uncle Shah & Auntie Liza gave her a birthday cake. She loves it and enjoyed eating the cake too.

Oh no... that is not the end of celebration...

On the 7th Aug 2013 (Wednesday), we have a small celebration for her at the Daycare. The idea of celebrating at the daycare because she has her group of friends. In the morning, we had a swimming pool celebration too... You should hear the laugh, scream and cheers while the children were playing in the pool. I wish you can see how they jumped from one pool to another. Truly fun morning!!! We had ordered some food and decorated the place. Everyone enjoyed the party and all children adores the birthday cake. Annabelle once again received presents from her friends.. She was on top of the world with her big smile. :)

To Annabelle: "Papa & mummy wish to see you grow to be a good and healthy girl. We may not able to give you lots of cash for your bank account, many beautiful princess dress or even spent you good food at expensive restaurant; but we can give you lots of love and memorable moments like this. We hope you will treasure all these and remembering that we love you..
