Happy Birthday to me

Posted by Everyday Healy on December 1, 2010

ย 

I went to McD on Monday evening. Yes. To buy Sundae cone. But not just not. I got another important mission. Yes. To play at the playground. Still, there is something more important.

Nope! Not to take photograph with Mr. McD! It’s to make booking for my birthday party. Yesterday, Mum had ordered the birthday cake that I wanted too. ย Yipee! ๐Ÿ˜‰

Mum thought I can just celebrate my birthday with my family members this year. But, I want my birthday party! Especially it’s in McD. I am so excited! I already sent the invitations out to most of my classmates yesterday. One reply of absent this morning. So disappointed! :(

Hopefully more good news are on the way. See you this Sunday, Mr. McD and all my friends. ๐Ÿ˜›

My simple 3rd Birthday

Posted by Everyday Healy on December 5, 2009

So, did you had fun celebrating your birthday with daddy and mummy last night? Mummy really had fun! At first, thanks to Ah Hwa grandma for preparing red eggs, mee and fried chicken for our lunch to celebrate your birthday like the Chinese traditional way.

Then, we were at Gurney Plaza. Choosing a few presents for your right brain class friends as you requested. Eventually, we decided we buy breads with Mickey Mouse, Lollipop and Ice Cream shape for your little friends. Your teacher got one muffin mix too.

Surprisingly, we met Auntie Michelle at Gurney Plaza. She accidentally knew that it was your birthday. We also met a clown distributing balloons in front of the Maxis center. So, you get all sorts of unexpected gifts.

A flower balloon from the clown, A puzzle game from your teacher and a DIY photo frame fromย  Auntie Michelle. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! :)

ย This bear is free from the Christmas Dinner set at The Ship.

As we were heading to dinner at about 9.30pm, you suddenly asked for cake. Gosh! So late already. Where are we going to get cake for you. Luckily, we managed to order a small cake from The Ship restaurant.ย  And, the cake was so delicious! Lots of walnuts and the chocolate was so rich! Mmm……Yum! Yum!

Sorry for no pictures on the scenes you were blowing cake at The Ship restaurant. As they are all in mummy’s handphone. The bad news is the phone suddenly hang and spoiled. So we lost the pictures. The good news is mummy is going to get a Christmas present for sure. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Posted by Everyday Healy on November 21, 2009

ย Finally, mummy will let the pictures do all the talking. The very precious moment to you. Time to distribute the party packs to your friends. ๐Ÿ˜›

Let’s hug hug, Hou Chun!

Well done! Here you go. This is your party pack. :)

Excuse me, Kamail. I want Nathan! Hahahaha……

Mum! This is my Nathan! ๐Ÿ˜‰ ( Looks like Nathan is one of your best friend too, right? Hahaha……)

Thanks for joining my party, Genny!

Zhi Ying, you are always my best friend!

Thanks to auntie Joanne. See you next year! ๐Ÿ˜›


I got my party pack too, Daddy! ๐Ÿ˜›

Alright! Children, line up and go back to your class now. So this is how your 3rd birthday party ends. :)

Birthday Party (Part 2)

Posted by Everyday Healy on November 20, 2009

Mummy has quite a lot of pictures to put up in your blog and has quite a lot to tell too. Thus, I decided to separate the video from the photos.

First, I wish you still remember that you had a beautiful “Strawberry Shortcake” birthday cake for your 3rd birthday even after many years later. She supposed to represent you as a sweet little girl.

It’s so lovely to see you smiling sweetly while you first starring at the cake. It’s your own choice after all. Hehe……

And, you have all your classmates to celebrate together with you.

You seems enjoyed cutting the cake too. So, are you ready to distribute it to your friends now? :)

Alright! Gently put it on the table. This is the way you serve you friend. :)

I thought Hou Chun is one of your close friend. How come you were not looking at him while serving the cake to him? ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

Your friend said:”Thank you. You should reply :”Welcome.”, ok? That’s good manner. ๐Ÿ˜›

Ops… she said:”No, Thank you.” So, can you pass it to other friend? :)

Finally, it’s my turn to eat the cake. Mmm… Yum! Yum!

Mummy appreciates this culture of your school so much. This is a great way to learn courtesy.

Well, some of them just can’t wait to get the cake, some said “No. Thank you.” . And, many has enjoyed the cake so much just like you. Some had take away the berries. And, some just keep asking for more and more.

And just when I thought this group of cake lovers might need some appetite suppressants to avoid over eating, all of us heard the 2 magic words — “Party pack”. Once teacher said come and sit down here to get your party pack, they just drop the spoon, leave the plates aside and sit down on the floor in no time. Obviously, party pack is more attractive than cake to these little ones. :)

To be continue……

Birthday Party at School (Part 1)

Posted by Everyday Healy on November 20, 2009

Daddy just can’t wait to see this. Yesterday was the first time you celebrate your birthday in school. Even though you seems so cool. Why are you not smiling?

Also, you blow the candles straight away after the English version Happy Birthday song. May it be you just can’t wait to blow the candles and cut the cake? As you keep starring at the cake while your friends were still singing the Malay and Chinese version Birthday song for you. LOL!

Anyway, the answer was a load and clear “Yes”, when mummy asked you weather you enjoyed the birthday party or not. I am happy to hear that. ๐Ÿ˜›

Thanks to your teacher and friends for the arrangement and participation too. :)

Busy filling up Goody bags

Posted by Everyday Healy on November 18, 2009

Today, you are really busy.

So this is what kept you so busy today. You were busy packing the party pack, or so called goody bag for your little friends as you are the host tomorrow. You were so excited while packing. Keep asking for more things to fill up the goody bags.

As you always said, mummy, I want 4 candles. Mummy, I want airplane cake. Mummy, I want celebration. Yes! Yes! You are going to have your birthday cake, 3 birthday candles on it and a wonderful birthday celebration at school. And, you are going to distribute all these goody bags to each and every of your little classmates just as what your friend did for their birthday party before. Are you curious what’s in it? Have a look then. :)

How about that? Colored glitter pens, raisins, puddings, princess glue sticks, purses and note books, balloons, stickers, bubbles …… Lots of things but it’s kind of easy to prepare. It’s nothing if compared to the repair and replace of things in the house such as changing light bulb or washer for the water tab, repairing the toilet flash, installing water filter or ย stainless steel backsplash. As all these little goodies are ready in the mall. Mummy just have to pick and pay. Hehe……

So tomorrow is a big day even though it’s not your real birth date. But, it’s your party.ย  Have fun! Enjoy it to the fullest tomorrow, baby! ๐Ÿ˜‰

My Birthday Party is just 3 weeks away

Posted by Everyday Healy on October 20, 2009

Once she reached home after school, Kak Sue took her bag out from the car as usual. Immediately she pointing at her bag and said:” I want my present.”

Yes! This is the second party pack she get since the last 4 months in school. And, Elizabeth already open it and start using the little presents in it such as glitters glue, note book, and pencil before mummy is free to take a picture ofย  it. :(

Children love party packs. And, many of her classmates have birthday parties in the school. Somehow, little Elizabeth’s birthday is on school holiday. After discussing with her teacher, mummy decided to make a birthday party for her on the last week of school days instead of during holiday camp.

Mummy had yet to decided which day it is. But, It’s only about 3 weeks away. So,we better start thinking about what to put in the party pack? Where to buy a nice party pack or box? Shall we have a clown shaping balloons for the kids? Most importantly, how the cake is going to look like?

Gosh! Sounds like mummy got lots of work to do! But, mummy is more than willing to do so. As long as my little princess is happy. ๐Ÿ˜‰

My Birthday Cake

Posted by Everyday Healy on December 12, 2008

Last year, we have 3D birthday cake and beautiful cupcakes. For a change, we ordered some fruit tarts this year instead of cupcakes.

Also, we prepared curry chicken, salad, fried mee hoon and mee, poh piah, fried mayonnaise crabsticks, french fries, jellys and many BBQ stuffs including minced lamb shoulders, chicken wings, satays, fish and plain prawns, sausages, chicken meat balls, and corns. Of course, there will always be some “red eggs”. That’s Chinese tradition! ๐Ÿ˜›

These food were ready about 2 hours before the party starts……

However, no cocktail. Only soft drink.All and all, thanks to “Ah Hwa Keh Mah”. She was always the one who prepared all the food for mummy’s birthday in the olden days. And now, it’s all for Elizabeth! ๐Ÿ˜›

Just imagine 18 types of food for only about 17 people. I guess you know what’s up. Yeah… lots of left over. LOL! Thus, daddy said there will be no more home BBQ party next year. As there is too much work for mummy, too much left over.

And, sorry for keeping you so long. Taa… Daa… Here’s the lovely Teddy Bear birthday cake!

It’s a 2D this year. But with the cutie pink dress, It really look so lovely! So… daddy made a great choice and thanks to Ritz pastry too. ๐Ÿ˜›

Posted by Everyday Healy on December 11, 2008

I thought she will only appreciates the big and lovely teddy bear cake. That’s it! ๐Ÿ˜›

However, just sing the birthday song now. She will run straight to the Christmas tree and grab some presents placed under the tree. That’s how she relates birthday song with birthday presents, cute aye? Hahahaha……

At the birthday party, this little birthday girl just can’t wait to open all the presents while we were still singing birthday song for her.ย  So, she were busy opening all the beautiful boxes before she cuts her lovely teddy bear cake. LOL!

Mmm… quite a nice shirt! (of course! Life Baby Leh!) Thanks “Gu Gu” (uncle Bill). ๐Ÿ˜›

 

Wow! Fish! Thank you, mummy! Among all the presents that you gave me. This is the best! ๐Ÿ˜‰ (Mummy actually bought 5 presents. There are puzzles, flash cards and ABCs magnets. Hehe…)

 

Oh! This is lovely! May be there is more! ๐Ÿ˜‰ย  Thanks to 3 big “Koko” — uncle Bill’s friends. (By the way, this princess lunch box is her favorite among all the presents)

 

She also get some Ang Pau from the elderly. And, geomatry game from her grand auntie, dresses from her grandma’s friend and her “kuku” (daddy’s sis). ๐Ÿ˜›

What a Birthday

Posted by Everyday Healy on December 4, 2008

“Hot! Hot! Very Hot!” That’s what she told me after she touched her forehead this morning.

“Then, you got to take medicine. So sorry, baby!” Mommy has no choice but to force the birthday girl swallow 3.5 ml of paracetamol again and again. Mommy really feels so sorry to see her get sick on her birthday. :(

Luckily, the fever seems not as high as what it used to be. At least she sweats after taking the paracetamol. Then, the temperature just went back to normal after taking paracetamol and 30 minutes of continuous swapping. Not this time! Mommy prays hard for her temperature will not go too high tonight. After all, she’s the birthday girl. Mommy really don’t want her to suffer from fever. Not on her birthday. :(

It started yesterday. And, hopefully it ends by tomorrow.ย  Oh…What a birthday! Don’t worry! Daddy will be back soon to play with you. Mommy really got to depend on daddy to cheer you up. He is simply good at it. Just as good as his knowledge of the various life insurance rates. Ha!

And, happy birthday my darling! Cheers! As there is still a wonderful party waiting for you to enjoy your special moment. Let’s be wishful for the 8th. ๐Ÿ˜›

I am 18 months Old

Posted by Everyday Healy on June 5, 2008

Now Little Elizabeth is 18 months and 1 day old in exact.

Yesterday, we celebrated. But, it’s doesn’t seems like a real celebration at all. Mummy bought a piece of chocolate banana cake for the “birthday girl”. Yeah… It’s cake. No lolly pop. Lolly pop is bad for teeth! That’s what I learn from Ghorn. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Anyway, Elizabeth don’t really enjoy eating that piece of chocolate banana cake. Oh! My dear, I though you like chocolate and banana? ๐Ÿ˜ฏ Don’t worry! Only mummy will need acne treatment after eating too much of chocolate. Not you, baby!

Actually, Elizabeth loves chocolate and banana. But, mummy forget that she doesn’t like cakes. hahaha…..

Never mind. We just forget about the cake. What’s next? Er… Since daddy is home earlier…


Ops… Make sure you can take it out later. ๐Ÿ˜ฏ


I told you! ๐Ÿ˜›

At last, baby enjoyed herself so much in the pool with her be loved daddy! At least some fun! :)

Do you miss me?

Posted by Everyday Healy on December 21, 2007

I am sick for the past few days. So no mood to play. However, I start cruising around the house now. And, mummy is not going miss all the wonderful moments during my birthday party. I guess she busy with blogging again.

She is going to show you something I am good at now.

It’s Kissing. Since my birthday, I kiss my cousins, my grandma, my mum, my dad, my uncle and even “Pooh Pooh”. This new “Winne The Pooh” bag is my favorite birthday present. It’s from my “GuGu” — Uncle Bill. He seems know me well. I like it so much! Thus, I kiss and kiss… and kiss it non stop.

Also, this is the first gift he bought using his own hard earn money. He works for 3 days standing in the Shopping Mall as a sales representative before my birthday. And, this gift was bought with his salary. Mummy is proud of him.

These days I always kiss my teddy bears and “Patrick” the dog too. ๐Ÿ˜›

Besides, dad and mum enjoyed I kiss them good night. Anyone here want a kiss from little Elizabeth too? It’s never too far away as Elizabeth can send flying kisses now. ๐Ÿ˜‰

1st Birthday Party (Part 2)

Posted by Everyday Healy on December 14, 2007

ย 

We still prepare other food at that night including fried bee hoon, fried mee, curry chicken. And, we have salad as appetizer and mix fruit jelly as dessert. Of course, as Chinese, “red eggs” ( actually is just normal boil egg, but we die it red) are the must have item while celebrating birthday. And, everyone who attend the celebration should take 1. However, if you ask me why, I am not sure. ๐Ÿ˜†

Lizzy, please remember that your 1st birthday party is actually a BBQ party. However, mum really got no time to snap a pic on the BBQ stuffs. So sorry ya, my dear!

And, we have all sorts of fizzy drinks. Even though 3 of the little ones including Lizzy were drinking Ribena.

And, look at her presents…

Thanks to all of the family members especially those that come far away from Ipoh.ย  I appreciate all of your efforts, be it attending the party or giving presents to my little one year old. Really thank you very much! ๐Ÿ˜›

There are 2 families from Ipoh. However, there is one that everyone of you here could be quite familiar with. That’s Justin, Isabelle, and Shoppingmum husband & wife. In fact, it’s been months we never get a chance to get together. So… I am glad that we enjoy the gathering this time. ๐Ÿ˜†

1st Birthday Party (Part 1)

Posted by Everyday Healy on December 13, 2007

I guess everyone is waiting for the updates about Lizzy’s birthday party. Even daddy keep asking me why he still can’t see anything about her birthday in the blog. Mummy is so sorry, Lizzy. I am doing it now, ok?

It’s show time now! ๐Ÿ˜›

Dear Lizzy, mummy got a house for your 1st birthday. Hopefully few years later when you look back into these photos, you will still fall in love with this cake. As mummy make the choice, I think you would prefer something really colorful and triking. So, I pick this “Red Mushroom House”.

Now that you got a house, may be I will get you a doll next time. And, I promise I will bake a beautiful birthday cake for you in the future with my own 2 hands. And, mum and dad also think that this 3D cake from Coffee Bean Cafe really worth its price as it did appeared more attractive than the sample photo.

Anyway, this 3kg chocolate butter cake definitely looks great from the outside but taste normal for the inside. Most of our family members are not happy with the taste during the party. It’s hard! You know why? That’s your mum’s fault as mummy shouldn’t place it so long in the fridge. The cake is still cold and a bit hardening when we cut and distribute it to everyone.

However,when we ate the cake after it had been defrost during the next day, the chocolate taste became so rich and hardness of the cake is just nice. Anyway, the sugar paste used to create the house was meant to throw away. Full of coloring and you will never like it once it melts in your mouth. It’s too sweet, just like you are seating sugar.

Besides, as cupcakes has become the recent “hot cake” for birthday, thus there are cupcakes for your birthday too. As I already took them out for some time before the party start, they are soft like cotton and taste fantastic! Also, how is the look? Nice, aren’t they? ๐Ÿ˜‰


It’s all about cakes for this post. TO BE CONTINUE……

Let’s Party Tomorrow

Posted by Everyday Healy on December 7, 2007

Tomorrow is my little princess official birthday party which we only celebrate among family members. I guess my only concern is her 2 cousins. I am so glad that they manage to attend her birthday party as she really loves to have kids playing with her. After all, it’s her birthday party. She is the limelight and the party should be something delighting her.

At first, I wanted to invite all the mummies and the little ones that I know through blogging. However, I am not quite an organizer. I don’t think I can handle it well. So, I finally decided to make it simple. ๐Ÿ˜›

Next time ya… all my friends. I have to trained myself up to be good in organizing events first. But, I am looking forward to make such a big and meaningful party. Hopefully next year I can make it! ๐Ÿ˜‰

Her 1st Birthday

Posted by Everyday Healy on December 4, 2007

ย 

3 days ago little Lizzy was sick. She got fever. However, I didn’t bring her to the doctor this time because I still have paracetamolย  with me. For 3 days, I just watch her carefully. And, I did gave her paracetamol during the second day when her fever is about 39 degree. After 3 feeds, she finally recover the next morning.ย 

Time flies. Today is already my girl’s 1st Birthday. And, if you asked me how do I feel?ย  I felt like she has grown up a lot. Now that she is stronger. I am glad that finally her body system can quickly recover from her sickness. Also, I am proud that She can calls “Mama” now. And, she practical learn up those have been taught almost immediately. Even if we don’t teach her, she will still catch up allย  the vocabulary through her own observation.

  • She is still in bubbling stage.
  • But, she already understand that if she wants to walk, she has to wear shoes.
  • She likes to walk in the garden.
  • She can remember where all the things kept.
  • She will open the cupboard on her own and take out the shoes to let us wear for her, every time she wants to walk in the garden.
  • ย She still wake up every night for her milk.
  • Each time, she only take about 4 Oz pf milk. However, she prefer chocolate flavor now. Thus, instead of only Babynat, now I will add 1 scope of Dumex 1+ chocolate milk for her.
  • ย If she wants milk and she was given with the wrong thing, says water, she will say “milk milk”.
  • Still no meat for her,ย  but lots of fish and vegetables.
  • ย She will eat rice with soup sometimes, instead of only porridge.
  • Sheย  has about 6 teeth now.
  • She is still taking jar fruits because she likes it so much.
  • She can walk very well.
  • She will say ” mai mai mai” means don’t want in Hokkien, if she rejects something.
  • She learn how to dance.ย  ( Just by waving her hands and turn round and round)
  • She likes to play with computers. (I think she just want to join us all as everyone in the house always on computer, including mummy, daddy, her uncle and her grandma. )
  • ย Still very clingy to mummy.
  • Baby shows that she likes including Barney, Brainy baby, Bee Smart Baby and Baby Einstein. ( Baby Einstein is her favorite among all the other 3.)
  • She likes to play Peekaboo. And, she looks really cute when she is trying to bend her body a bit and so that she can look out for us while she is still half hiding behind the door.
  • She likes umbrella.
  • She like soft toys too including Patrick ( the dog), Teddy bears and Winnie the Pooh is her all time favorite.ย  ( In fact, she will hug her Pooh every now and then).
  • She can recognizes and relates things quite well. For example, if you ask her where is the Christmas tree, she will point to the ring that are using the same “grass” and red and gold deco too. Obviously, she understands that they look alike and both are meant for Christmas too. ๐Ÿ˜›
  • She can point out car, apple, toothbrush, comb, bear, dog, lion, swimming costume, banana, fish, bird, giraffe, elephant, shoe, flower, fan, snail, and so on.
  • She is quite concern with her things now. For example, if I show her something in the supermarket and mention that I’ve bought for her, she will ask me to take it once the cashier has packed it in the plastic bag.
  • Still very friendly.
  • Things that scare her and will make her cry:ย  someone with mustache, dogs’ bark, car horn, my dog.

That’s it for no, I think. Happy Birthday, my girl. Mum and dad loves you, my dear… And, you are doing well. Mummy is so proud of you. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Her simple birthday party will be held on this coming Saturday. ๐Ÿ˜›

For Her 1st Birthday

Posted by Everyday Healy on November 26, 2007

White is always my favorite color for clothing. And, look what I’ve chose for my girl — a beautiful white princess dress for her 1st birthday. I think she will certainly looks gorgeous in this dress.ย  And, it’s best if she likes hair band. However, I am sure she will take it off as soon as I put it on her head, just like what she did to her hat. :roll:

Thus, I am still looking for the right accessory for her to go with this beautiful dress. As I search around, I had fell in love with a beautiful silver jewellery online. It’s kind of dainty. This child’s’ silver bracelet with single coin pearl has showed its simplicity at its best. I think this fantastic designer jewellery will match her dress well. I wonder if she likes it too?
