{thank you @doting_dad for this cool fam photo!} Ollie's 3rd birthday celebration was my most last-minute party planning to date. Just when friends thought I couldn't get any more last minute than the previous (referring to Liam's 5th birthday celebration, which I planned in a week), they sighed in disbelief as I shared my relief in managing to book Ollie's specially requested huge custom number ...

Liam’s 5th Birthday Celebration – I planned a PJ Masks theme party in 5 days
"That's what you say every year! We shall see!", my good (mommy) friend Sheryl quipped, when I mentioned during our play date earlier in January that I was probably not going to throw a birthday party for Liam this year. She was right, I've been saying it for the past 4 years. Yet every year, I seem to be able to come up with a convenient excuse to host a birthday party, although the lead time ... Read More
Ollie’s 2nd birthday celebration – a collaborative Bear x Bus theme party
Ollie's 2nd birthday party was epic. It was the only party out of the 8 parties I've done, which had the most DIY projects, including having to fix the birthday cake thrice! Yet it was also the only party which made me feel utterly miserable even before it started. Things I least anticipated to fail, failed so badly that it was tough concealing my sporadic sighs and disappointments whenever ... Read More
Liam’s 3rd Birthday: A Peppa Pig Theme Party
Last month we celebrated Liam's 3rd birthday with a Peppa Pig theme party. We were close to not having one but seeing how well Liam had adjusted to being a big brother in the last 6 months and how he's been eagerly asking if he can have a Peppa Pig birthday cake after mulling fickle-mindedly between a 'Mickey Mouse Clubhouse' or 'Chuggington' birthday cake for 2 weeks, we decided to ...

Party Preps for Liam’s Peppa Pig Birthday Party
And we finally have Liam's birthday invite done and sent! It's been sitting on the back burner for ages because I didn't have a party venue (and when I finally did, it was tough to choose between the two!). To think the husband suggested a change in party plans again over breakfast yesterday morning. I almost wanted to reach out to strangle him. What was he thinking? That putting together a party ...

Weekend 2015 #10 – A Birthday Party at Fidgets & West Coast Park Playground
We started the weekend by celebrating my nephew's 5th birthday at Fidgets. Liam had so much fun that the moment he woke up from his nap, he ran amok the entire Fidgets playground, testing the Bo's flexibility through the various structure by asking his papa to follow him. Thankfully I was baby wearing Ollie, so my back was spared :) I've been wanting to check out how parties run at Fidgets, since ... Read More
Liam turns 2 – a sesame street kinda birthday bash
Our very blessed son got to celebrate his birthday not once, twice but thrice this year. Unlike last year's, this year's celebrations were rather impromptu. The initial plan was to celebrate it in overseas…till baby #2 happened and I got too sick to travel. With so many things happening at the same time,we couldn't decide if we wanted to have another birthday celebration apart from the one we ... Read More
