hi tuffy,
got Neo Garden to do Kyan's b-day. Food was fantastic as we got the $15.80 menu since we've invited very close friends and relatives. Furthermore got 20% disc so in the end paid slightly more than $400.
Yup, Kyan's cake is from Polar. We got the elmo cut out cake and it was so cute when i saw it. Kyan's got so excited as well. Wanted to use the knife to cut the cake as soon as he saw it.

Hi Joyfulstar
You are not alone...I yet to finalise guest list as all like never rsvp...now, I just have a fixed number in mind and leave the rest to take care of itself....
Cake wise, settled, just a simple 1 as I think he only have number 1, once in his life, and everyone eat the cake, which means, one year past....

Hi Mummy who had celebrated baby birthday....
What time did you get the cater to set up before the guest arrived?
I just got back from a birthday celebration. Food was delicious and not enough though cater more....the host did not get to eat....
Wonder for their case, do you think its good that the host should keep some food for themselves in advance before the guest arrived?Its not under cater but guest over eat as the food they cater was really good....

hi, joyfulstar,
hope u r feeling better already, what bad timing to kena fever. ordered yr cake already?
joy747,
why not help yourself to the food before the guests arrive? I think I'll do that with the excuse I need to double-check the food taste, hehehe. At least let me be the one to find out if the taste is out rather than have my guests tell me or worse, never tell and I don't know until they all leave & I go makan the leftover. So pai seh.

Hi All
Sorry that I haven't been posting... Really busy for the past 2 weeks. Party done on 9 Jul. Food and cake were great. I had the party started at 12pm, cake cutting done at 2pm and guests all left by 3pm - Fast right? Hehe. My hb better to chop chop finish with the cake cutting as he knows that guests want to leave early and host need a rest and clean up. My girl was quite cranky during the party as everyone wanted to carry her. Luckily during the cake ceremony, she din cry as she was puzzled what we all are doing. I only invited relatives and some closed friends that all.
My girl recently has difficulty in sleeping at nite. Most likely is dued to her big tooth (molar) growing. Can see her keep sticking her fingers in her mouth to the back of her gums. Then at nite, keep wanting me to carry her (daddy also dun want) and rock her to sleep. Tried to put teething gel but doesn't help much. Then in the middle of the nite, she will wake up a few times to cry. Haiz... Really very siong for me.
Hi Joyfulstar
Take good care and dun fall sick becos of the party.
Hi Joy747
I think host should keep a bit for themselves first. Having said that, I din eat the food b4 the guests came, then by the time, I tried the food, the food cold liao. Not so nice anymore.

Hi All,
Yeah... I've recovered & guess what!!! I've settled all the Birthday Party stuffs too. *phew* Using Neo Garden for the food catering, just confirmed the cake design with Creative, packed all the goodies bags, bought the materials for the deco & booked the venue for the party. What a relief!!! Now gonna wait till Sat to do the deco & have the party. Praying hard for good weather this weekend for our little one's party.
bleuz,
wow... u ordering from awfully chocolate? yummy... hope you have gotten almost everything settled too. are u & hb bringing Kellis somewhere on 24/7/06??? Hee... we r going to bg Bernice over to Malacca.
joy747,
congrats on Aedann starting t walk. Hee... I'm sure it's lots of fun.
Re: walking & running
Nowadays, since Bernice started walking, she is always following me whereever I go. Sometimes, I told her to play by herself in her playarea, she'll just walk ard the hse instead. At times, she gets so excited that she even started running. Guess she is too overwhelmed by her own achievement.

Hi Joyfulstar,
Glad you're better now.. will need all the energy for Bernice's birthday party. =)
You must be excited.
You're really good ... doing all these on your own. I'm still trying to settle the
cake design, hope it'll turn out fine. Wanted a chocolate fudge cake (my favourite)
so we're getting half of the cake in chocolate fudge and the other half in rum and
cherries as my hubby likes tat.
I took leave on 24 Jul but hubby is busy and can't lei. =( So fun.. you bringing Bernice
to Malacca. Hopefully, he'd knock off early and we can bring her out.

Hmmmm.... b4 Bernice turns 1 yr old. Here's another pic of hers to share.
Looking at her, makes me feel wow... so fast!!! It seems to me like just ytd that I've given birth. Hmmmm.... Now starting to miss her infancy stage. But, on the other hand, seeing her walking & running on her own really melts my heart.

joy747, joyfulstar, sp,
wow, looks like all of you are giving your babies some food apart from the normal stuff... and especially joyfulstar, Bernice's lunch and dinner is so yum yum
actually for me, i only dare to give her plain rice grains or beehoon(short piece) and that's all! i don't dare to give her anything that has too high salt content or msg or sugar leh... was wondering when would that be suitable?
Ever since she tasted the Nestle Cheerios, now, whenever i give her biscuits (cheerios, stars and baby bites), she will grab and finish all the cheerios first, so funny... so i think kids do know taste, once they like it, i'm scared they will not want to eat their plain food?
sp, i think your hh's behaviour quite common among kids... hehe... i am just thinking when will it happen to mine
... so, did your MIL feed him anything else after that?

Hi Mummies...
SP... actually I am not any better. Just like you I feed my boy with most of the stuff we eat. When the PD said that the baby can eat the same food as us adults when he turns one year old... I have been looking forward to his birthday. So on 1 July... we gave him the same chicken and mee sua that we were having. He also tasted his chocolate mousse cake and ice-cream cake =p Of course thats occassionally. On normal weekdays my MIL still cooks the usual food for him.
plim... my boy has been very adventurous with food by the time he turned 8 months old. This are the "unusual" stuff that he tried before he turned one:
- macaroni and cheese
- bread pudding
- fried macaroni
- scrambled egg
- steamed egg
Of course for egg... he was only given egg yolk and the bread pudding, macaroni & cheese and scrambled egg were prepared with his own milk.
As babies grow... their tastebud matures and therefore can taste better. So it is natural that they won't go back to their "baby food". Like my boy... lately he hates food that are overly mashed. We use to give him fish mixed into his porridge but nowadays he prefers the fish to be a separate dish (and fed with chopsticks some more) just like us adult. Not trying to be gross... but even for us... if our porridge has all the stuff mixed in and in a mish mash state... we won't find it appetising also cos it looks like someone chewed and spit it out =p

Hi Odie
I have tried giving mee sua on my girl birthday, but after 2 mouths, she din want any more. Haiz. I see that you have given your boy some variety to try. Good leh..
My girl suddenly dunno why, just after she turned 1, she decided to walk. Last time she could take a few steps nia. Now she can walk all the way and wanna run somemore. Of course, she cannot balance if she runs and fall on the floor. See her walk like very funny, her hands will be raised up like "surrender". hehe
