But I always fail at baking desserts! I can only bake bread! Great sense of satisfaction when I see the kids eat. Feel like baking again but I cannot stand the smell of the yeast when I am preggy. Next time can order cakes from you!
haha my art is fail one... lol
ya lor... i can get up at bedok, get a seat say eunos (or mebbe even at bedok if i am v v lucky) and sleep all the way to buona vista. the good old days..ahh
Ya.. I did most...Ok. I like to wait. Hahaha! So do you bake all your girls' birthday cakes? Still can customise according to their preferences and adjust the sweetness. So good!
That one can.. Is baked..
did u try to squeeze the sponge finger too close to each other? Just slight space out a little, like space 2mm apart of each other...
Oh no I ordered a box for myself .the champagne truffles one mmmm collecting on sunday!Awww yes! Definitely missing the Raffles Hotel Snowskin Mooncakes!
Gotta settle for the new Tropical Tango Mango
But it's unfair for who if you don't do anything?? The kid doesn't know even if we don't organise anything for them...
I think it's perfectly fine... since so close to CNY, you can just invite them over for CNY like 拜年 like that lah.... Don't need to cook anything, just eat those CNY goodies lor...
For my parents' side, I don't see I will do much, cuz my parents don't like to do this kind of stuff, they usually quite low-key.
Only my in laws I need to do these, cuz it's their first grandkid. My MIL also quite excited, cuz she's the only one among her siblings without a grandchild right now.....

This kind of button down top we should be able to wear until full term right??
Fair to the third child. In case they grow up and ask how come their older siblings have full month parties and they didn't have. I think when we have more than one kid, fairness always cross our minds when making a purchase. Whether it's food or toys. Must buy for both, buy the same value, cannot shortchange. I don't know! Maybe it's just me. I feel that way. Lol
it may be... I want to arrange it nicely mah.... haa

time to update the list
on the other hand, think abt it... you'd also have given gifts to ur relatives for such ocassions also... so i see it as "li shang wang lai" lor.
ya lo.
Is it because as you all have more kids you all feel lazier and lazier??? Like the novelty is gone???
Maybe what you can do is do something special with this one that the others don't have... so everyone has something special that you can remind them that only they have??

How do you explain to them when they ask why they get hand-me-downs leh??
I'm just thinking aloud, because I am #3 in my family, so I have always been the youngest using hand me downs from my sisters etc... But to me, it is just clothes/toys lah, I don't recall complaining to my mum about this. But maybe I don't remember lah.
The only people I remember comparing against is with my classmates. How come my classmates have the nice $25 pencil cake with so many compartments etc, why I cannot have, etc etc.
how about having a cosy party in a hotel room suite with v close relatives? instead of inviting a busload of ppl and giving so manycakes
haha it's also the same thing lor. my oldest cousin gave birth to her 2nd son in jan 2010, my 2nd cousin gave birth to her eldest son in July 2010. 2012 dec my 2nd cousin had her 2nd daughter (oldest cousin and 2nd cousin are sisters).. my uncle had 4 grandkids in also in 5/6 yrs. abt the same as ur parents... then last yr oct was my wedding, and then dec was my 2nd cousin's daugher's 1st bday.. and i am the 3rd in the family to get married. the rest of my cousins are unmarried... some of them are like still in sec sch that sorta thing.
