The Little One is One


She has turned one! Time sure does fly when you are a parent. I never ever have enough hours in a day for all the things that I want to do! That is why this post is almost a month and a half late. We didn't have a big birthday bash for her since she will not know what the fuss is about and she doesn't have a lot of friends. So a birthday party full of adults isn't exactly a fun birthday for a child. Instead, she had 3 celebrations. One each at both set of grandparents and a getaway trip for just the 3 of us to Sentosa.




She doesn't know how to blow out the candle yet. She did try! next year, she will definitely know how to!

Plenty of gifts. She isn't too excited about them, again, she didn't know what the fuss was about. Once the wrappers came off, she had a field day with the presents. She had so many, she didn't know where to begin!
Second cake!

Checking in.

We have brought her to the zoo, the bird park so we thought, why not an aquarium? She had a wonderfully day checking out the colourful fishes swimming around. She was pointing and babbling quite a bit in there. The tunnel wasn't as colourful, that is why she forced a smile in the photo. By the end of it, she was getting a little sleepy already. We walked along the beach a little, found a spot to sit down in the shade while I nursed her. She didn't sleep for too long though.
So, off to the pool we went! This photo very healthy lifestyle hor, wear swim suit eat apple. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Dinner at a Japanese restaurant. She kept making funny faces in there. All the other diners were all kinda serious.. except her.


Hard Rock Cafe. The last time I was in a HRC was when I was 19 or 20. It was fun, especially after the serious Japanese dinner.
She loved the balloon the people at HRC gave her. I hated it. I hate balloons, they looked like they would burst anytime. The way she waved it around, the way she handled the balloon, I thought I might get a cardiac arrest. The balloon came off the stick a few times, The Husband helping her fixed it back, and she was so impatient, tucking at his bermudas, and babbled in a demanding and authoritative tone, as if telling him to hurry up and give it back to her.

It was a long long day and she wasn't about to go to bed just like that. She went walking round and round and round the room checking out everything. I am glad that she had a fun day.


The breakfast spread at the resort was really good. As anyone can see, she ain't too much a morning person. I love napping after breakfasts, and that was what we all did!
It was a great first birthday!
