Two Birthdays and a Trip

It's our birthday month! CB celebrated his 3rd birthday with a Toy Story theme at McDonald's. I made a Toy Story cake using a ready-made marshmallow icing cake and decorated it using a Toy Story poster and toy figures bought in a toy store. My little boy was so happy with all the gifts and toys he received!

A couple of days after, we travelled to Tokyo, Japan where my younger sister and her husband are staying for a couple of months for a short teaching stint in a University. Unfortunately, CB (cheeky boy) got sick and contracted a flu. It's a good thing my brother-in-law spoke fluent Nihongo, we didn't have to go to an international hospital for consultation. My little boy had to take Tamiflu, as part of his recovery meeds, though.

Oh, and I had a simple birthday celebration, got cool gifts (like Hello Kitty stuff LOL) from my mom and sisters. It was so much fun to be with my family again!

The Number 32

What's in a number?

According to Wikipedia, the number 32 is the fifth power of two (math), the freezing point of water at sea level in degrees Fahrenheit (science), the number of completed, numbered piano sonatas by Ludwig van Beethoven (music) and the (supposed) age of Jesus Christ when he was crucified... Well as for me, it's just my age.

Celebrated my birthday last month with a pretty pink shopaholic cake, lovely dinner with the family and cocktails with VR at Hard Rock Cafe.



Last year, VR was overseas on a Mission during my birthday. He did send me a text message and ordered flowers and birthday card online. Oh, those never arrived by the way... (he got a refund i guess ?). So this year was special for me coz he delayed his Mission trip and went after my birthday (how sweet!). And I got a Marc by Marc Jacobs Dr. Q Lil Riz bag as a pressie! Thanks bubba for everything!



At 32, I'm blessed to have a loving hubby who spoils me, an adorable son (with cutey dimples) who is learning to walk with his squeaky sandals, a supportive mother and caring sisters who spoil my little CB.
