Took me 3 months to write about this. First it was laziness,
then it was resource crunch at work due to a couple of people leaving, then it
was mother being admitted to hospital and still is in hospital now. In the
office now and there is network down so work cannot be done. Decided to do some
‘well-being’ brain stuff.
This year I managed to think ahead instead of being caught
off-guard that his birthday ‘suddenly’ arrived. Luis still likes monkeys very
much, especially the monkey soft toy that Daddy bought for him. So we had a
monkey themed party.
As usual we invited our friends and their children over to
our house, (I hope) they had a blast of a time at our house. Even our bedroom
looked like the tornado struck, I didn’t dare look at it anymore after the
first look, so I assumed they had plenty of fun. Not to mention the other
rooms.
We also had a celebration with Daddy’s side of family. The
usual dinner followed by birthday cake. Luis enjoyed his cakes very much at
this period. I brought him to Four Leaves at Yew Tee and let him choose his
cake. It wasn’t easy! Which kid at 2 year old can make up their mind without
changing it? So in the end he ‘chose’ his cake with my preference – it was a
strawberry shortcake which turned out to be surprisingly nice.
For his actual birthday it was a weekday. Lucas got to skip
childcare that day. We brought both boys to take the duck tour followed by the
Singapore flyer. Then we went to Swensens! They give a free ice-cream of 5
flavours to the birthday kid with a candle, we did it once with Lucas and we
thought it was very nice. So we went to Bukit Panjang Plaza’s Swensens. Both
boys had a good time.
Finally we went home for naps. In the evening we had a small
single portion cake for Luis with birthday song in our house. Cake was shared
by the brothers. And that is the start of Luis’ 2nd year J
