Yeah, Mummy haven’t been blogging for so so long, I know I know. Ain’t my fault. She is just tooooooo lazy to do anything right now. Guess ya’ll should know by now that she is carrying my lil sister in her right? She is currently 33 weeks pregnant and everyday I hear her complaining about aches and stuff. So I guess what I am trying to say here is, don’t blame her for the (very) lack of updates.

So anyway, let’s get to the important stuff here. Huh? what do you mean, ‘what important stuff?’. Me turning 2 of course. It is a huge deal ok. The no 2 is more than 1. I am not 1 anymore, I am 2. Ok? Ok.

Daddy & Mummy decided not to make a huge party this time round because Mummy’s not feeling too well because of the pregnancy. They decided to have a small celebration at home with just family and I think I kind of like it. Reason being, I don’t miss my nap time, I get to eat anytime I want and yes I don’t have to sweat buckets under the sun in my costume. Being at home with your loved ones beats any outdoor celebration, hands down!

Let’s get to it!

Having an animal themed party is the best idea since they know how much I LOVE animals (and ya dinosaurs too. Check out their sharp teeth! And goodness they are SO BIG) so thumbs up Mummy & Daddy on that. Mummy didn’t take long to shop for my mini party because hey you just need a mask for my party. I, however, wore a full lion costume. I very fierce, you scared or nyot?

Roooooarrrrrr!!!!! (are you peeing in your pants or whuttt?)

Moving on, as usual the others also tried to look like animals for my party too (but of course I looked the best) Let me show you.

Here is Kakak ShaSha as a rooster.

Kakak ShaSha made a card for me and I think she is so good in drawing. LOOK!

Right? Thank you Kakak ShaSha.

Next we have Mysha who is a Cat. Meowww…

I have never seen a cat with so much jewellery before. Hmmm.

How about Myreen? She is a cute lil Panda.

I don’t understand why this Panda look cross eyed here. Panda, are you ok?

For the first time ever, Nana decided to take part in dressing up for a theme party. Guess what she is..

A VERY fierce looking lion. I like.

You want to see what Dada looks like? (He chose a very suitable animal, I feel)

Dada Gorilla!! *shudders*

A few minutes later, I found the Gorilla here..

Exercising? Ok Dada Gorilla, well done.

Mama Diah and Papaq become bears and then I remember Mummy telling me bears are usually very chubby and snuggly. Maybe these 2 bears watch their diet.

(nice fringe there, Papaq Bear)

Here let me show you a confused family. Mama & Papa Bear gave birth to a Baby Panda, Cat and errr…Rooster?

Mama E confused me last night. I didn’t know what animal she is, but she looks more like a monster to me. We all ran away from here everytime she comes near us.

She said she will be selling this costume and more at her online store soon, so if you want to look like a monster, stay tuned to find out more.

Look here, Mama E trying to force me to buy her outfit. I just went “hmmm….lemme think about it”

Now let’s take a look at Uncle Bert who looks like a gay fox.

Hehe nice bushy tail there Uncle Bert!

Ouh, and we had someone new joined our party too. Aunty Mandy!

Aunty Mandy, I am not sure which animal you are, but since you are new I will not bully or make fun of you. In fact, I want to thank you for coming. (Please don’t be like Uncle Bert ah, always bully me)

Want to see Daddy?

Lion wore sunglasses and jacket. I swear I have never seen this kind of lion anywhere.

You must be wondering how Mummy looked like, but she was too busy taking everyone’s picture that she forgot to take hers! A picture of the lion family will do then

Do I look the fiercest or whutttt???

Even the helpers in the family participated in the theme. Here’s Aton and Estee!

Hehe a frog and a puppy!

A picture of all of us (without Uncle Bert & Aunty Mandy because Mummy and Daddy want me to take picture with everyone before I start roaring for real)

Then, they took out the CAKE. So clever ah, take it out at the very last minute so that I will get distracted and they can take tons of photos if me.
Of course I got distracted, just look at the cake!

Can you tell how amazed I am of the cake? Mummy ordered it from Comestivel, Aunty Yati. The cake doesn’t only look good on the outside, but look at the inside. And it tastes heavenly too!

Rainbow cakes are so in nowadays, of course I want one for my birthday too! Thumbs up Mummy, good choice! Everyone loved the cake.

Ok, now for some random pictures taken during the party.

Myreen didn’t want to put on her mask, and when she finally did…

I took mine off. WHAT? We are kids, we are supposed to make things difficult for the adults. Nyeh Nyeh. *high 5 Myreen!*

Do you know that Dada and Nana took 3 days to get me my presents?? Do you know that they bought me 6 different presents?? And because they know how much I love animals and dinosaurs, almost all of the presents I got was animals and dinosaurs. No complains, I go to sleep hugging a dinosaur aka Mummy. Hehe.

Sorry you took 3 days to find my presents Dada & Nana. Thank you for all 6 of them! (Daddy is afraid of the lion). To Mama E & Uncle Bert, thank you. I like the snake but because you keep wrapping me with it, I pretend to hate it. (Uncle Bert, you watch out). Aunty Mandy, thank you for the bubble gun, I love playing with bubbles but Mummy said it’s messy and I can only play in the bathroom *sad face*. Uncle Shafiq, thank you for your very funny card and the gift too. I know you are in a jungle somewhere in Brunei right now. Did you get to see lions??? I wish you were here for the party. We had macdonalds and we wanted to order an IB meal for you. Howell. Mama Diah, Papaq and Nadyas, thank you for the books. Till today Mummy still wonder how you managed to get such good books about dinosaurs for me. I love the books by the way. I asked Mummy to read for me every night and then I go to sleep roaring. Sometimes I woke up in the middle of the night just to roar. Thanks to your books.

I had a roarrrring good time turning 2 and because my birthday is so close to my Nenek, Mysha & Myreen, I get triple the fun! Today I will be Ken, Barbie’s boyfriend for Mysha & Myreen’s party. Look out for me later ya’ll.*peace*

Bye Bye for now!

Ahoy mates!! It’s me, Shan Ehan. I am a year old now, do you know? About 2 weeks ago, Mummy and Daddy had a Pirate bash for me at Aloha Loyang pool terrace. No, I don’t understand a thing about the party, but I do remember how much fun it was to turn a year old and to celebrate it with so many special people. So thank you friends, aunties, uncles, neneks and atuks for coming to my party. The pictures taken by uncle Sharizan will be memories to last a lifetime. Thank you uncle Sharizan, that is a great great gift! You can check out all of his work at www.pinholefoto.com :)
Aunty Nani from minicupcakes gave me a whole buffet spread of yummy goodies! Look at this!!

I might be a baby but I do know good stuff when I see them. Aunty Nani, truly love what you have done with the candy buffet corner. Thank you so much! You should see all of aunty nani’s work, they are superb! Email her at minicupcakes@gmail.com friends!
Food! I missed out on eating the scrumptious food mummy catered from aunty Lynn from Lab Bridal because i aint got enough teeth to chew ya’ll. Got a lot of praises for them, good job Aunty Lynn! This will not be the last time, for sure. Other than food, Aunty Lynn also did the pirate decor for me. It is very well done, don’t you think? I especially love the backdrop behind the cake cutting table. Everything was done in great detail. Uncle Ashik and clan, kudos to all of you! If you wish to contact Aunty Lynn, you can do so at 96850165.
My birthday cake was a pirate ship done by Aunty Ayu from Simply cupcakes. She is one super Aunty who can make any cakes at all! Email her at simplycupcakes@gmail.com should you want to order any cakes. You won’t regret it. :)

Can you spot a tiny shark? hehe. Aunty Ayu, you are awesomeeeeee!
Ok back to the party now. The crowd only started coming in at 4 plus and at 5pm the entertainer started playing games. I saw Kakak Sharleez having fun with the rest of the kids there, but all I could do was watch. Argh! YOU WAIT AH. Give me 1 more year.

Mummy and Daddy invited a lot of their friends for my party and many of them gave me great gifts. (Mummy nagged everyday though because we don’t have any space in the house to keep the presents. Hee)

My Mummy and Daddy dressed up as Pirates too.
Look at Papa Yat’s ‘eye patch’! Hehe
OOOPS! Caught on camera!
Abang Amirin, why are you covering Kakak Alya’s face with your ‘sword’? You aaaah…..
I am quite disappointed that we didn’t get to take pictures with quite a lot of our guests because everyone came at the same time and there was too much going on. :(
To choose the Best Dressed winner, we had 4 judges; Uncle Hafidz, Uncle Shahir, Uncle Cassim and Uncle Ali. It must have been tough because so many of my friends came as pirates, it was so hard to choose who was the best.
Best Dressed BABY.
The nominees for Best Dressed Boy.
Nusair, whose name was mistaken for Mikhail. hehe Sorry Abg Nusair. Do you like the consolation prize?
Abang Aniq won consolation too. (Did you stain your t-shirt on purpose Abg? Vair cool)
Abg Niaz, the handsome pirate who kept smiling to everyone, won 3rd.
The shy pirate, Abang Naufal won 2nd place!

Congratulations to all the winners!
Anyway, Uncle Fauzie is a very good entertainer! He made everyone laugh, especially during the lucky draw segment. I was too tired to participate, so I took a little time off in the air-conditioned room. Hee.
Congratulations to all 10 lucky draw winners! :D
Right after we ended the lucky draw, all our guests were ready to leave, so Mummy and Daddy didn’t get to cut the cake for everyone to eat! Tsk Tsk Tsk. Sorry hokay?
Ok…. now it’s time for me to say my thanks to people who made turning 1 year old memorable.
Dada and Nana for EVERYTHING. You both are the reason why I think family is so important and nothing else matters as much. You both have taught everyone in the family about being there for one another in good and bad times and lending support towards each other in every way. I love you both so much! Mama Diah, thank you for helping Mummy with all the birthday ideas and for reminding her about what to do when my bash was getting nearer (trust me, she wouldn’t have remembered A LOT of things. Sheeesh…). And the nadyas for coming over and ‘helping’ mummy with all the present wrapping (and for always entertaining me with your silly antics!) OH! and Mama Diah, thank you for cleaning up after the party too. Papa Yat, my best friend! Thank you for lending Daddy your help with all the party arrangements! You got to work the minute you arrived at the location, you are 1 super uncle! Papa Piq for still putting in the effort to dress up even though you can only be at the party for a short while before booking in to camp. Mama E, thank you for coming as a pirate and for taking awesome pictures! Hehe. Nenek mardiana, thank you too for helping with the cleaning up after the party. (I saw you picking up the plates from all over the chalet!) hehe.
To all aunties and uncles who came for the party, mummy and daddy are still talking about it (get over it already, you 2!) and can’t thank you all enough for taking the time to be there. Mummy said she had lots of fun planning the party and she wouldn’t mind planning for me every year, but daddy called her crazy. So I guess this won’t be a yearly thing. It’s ok, with or without a party, with my family, turning a year older every year will be just as memorable.
Happy 1st birthday to me. All I wish for is to be healthy and happy. Thank you mummy and daddy for this party and thank you Allah for blessing me with everything. Amin. I hope you enjoy reading about my birthday party. :)

29!

July 24th, 2011 by Nurulaini

I am so happy to be typing an entry on my blog about MY birthday. SO yes, have you heard that I turned 29 yesterday? Old news. I don’t feel any different from when I turned 28 last year…except err…I am a mother now. A very happy one. :)

 

It’s really hard for me to believe that I will be 30 next year. I remember making fun of my kaklong when she turned 30, calling her old and all. That was 5 years ago and I was 24, what do I know? But I also make fun of Diah when she turned 30 early this year…so I guess what I am trying to say is, some things never change. I am still very childish at 29. HAHA.

 

Speaking of which…there is one more thing that will never change when it comes to birthdays. Home party at the in laws with glorious food cooked by mak and daddy in law and our ridiculous themes. THAT will never change. It might just become a family tradition. It was especially special because everyone was there and everyone dressed up according to the theme.

 

And since it is my birthday, I get to choose the theme that I want and I decided on ‘ROCK’. Pretty easy right? So I thought. ‘aiyah…just slap on some eyeliner, black lipstick, Mohawk hair and done!’ I should have ‘think out of the box’ as per what Diah says. The rest of them are so creative! I know I don’t stand any chance to win this time round. DAMMIT.

 

So anyway, before I scare you with our individual pictures, I shall first show you the nicer pictures taken before we transformed ourselves.

FOOD cooked by mother in law. We are all so lucky don’t you think? Mak loves to cook especially if its for her family aka US. You should see the look on her face when we are all seated and eating the food she cooked together as family. She looks satisfied. Thank you mak! You are an awesome cook!

 

 

Cake from ‘Awfully Chocolate’ is sooooo good!

 

Shan already changed to his pjs.

 

The girls and me! Diah Mastura & Ili Diyana, where were you?!

“happy birthday to you….happy birthday to you…happy birthday to aan/kak nurul/ mapley/nurulaini..happy birthday to you….!”

 

Nobody else is interested in taking nice pictures nowadays. The rest only wants to dress up according to the theme and get their pictures taken. Bottom line is, we all love taking ridiculous pictures.

 

Are you ready?………

 

ANDA MAU ROCK??????

 

(ok lah, some of these rockers are not really rockers la huh…some are just MAT rock)

Innocent rocker Shan who only wants to bite everything.

MAT rock who went “Like Johnny Depp right?” 135634127391824 times.

 

<JD>

SURE NOT?!

See what I mean by NOT thinking out of the box? I look like I am about to host another Rock Elektra show. (super sore cos I rarely win any theme party!!)

This is a ROCKER people would call “dah relak ah”. That star on his left eye is so crooked, must be his daughter’s ‘project’. But look at him properly..he must have some relation to..

Minah rock. Sexy minah rock. But doesn’t she remind you of someone?

The I-am-so-cool-I-have-pig’s tail-hanging-out-at-my-back rocker.

This is a rocker who looks like Avril Lavigne.

The pretty rock chic.

Who say ‘Rock never dies’? This one sure wants to die.

The Rocker Rascal with blingbling on his face.

The ‘angry face’ Nadya rockers.

 

So who do you think is the most ridiculous looking rocker?

VOTE!

Who is the best rocker?
