Lil Shauna's Bday Party I

I had wanted to hold a bday party for Lil Shauna for the longest time.

Yes, I noe that:

1. Lil Shauna is too young to remember that she ever had this bday party;

2. Lil Shauna is too young to appreciate and enjoy being the star; and

3. Lil Shauna has not have many friends.

However, I:

1. Will take loads of photos and show her when she grows up;

2. Am too proud of her and would like to show her off to all my family & friends;
3. Am eager to try my cupcake baking skills; and

4. Will invite many of our family & friends to help Lil Shauna celebrate.

Thus, I manage to convince Daddy Lim to hold a celebration for Lil Shauna on Vesak Day.

We took a long time to plan for this celebration. The planning started since her photoshoot, which was eventually used to make her invite, to attending cupcake baking class so as to bake cupcakes for Lil Shauna, to buying new clothes and balloons online for decoration and the online sourcing for bouncers and toys to entertain the babies on that day. We were expecting quite a few kids and babies.

Lil Shauna didnt come home last night bcos Daddy Lim & I plus Xiao Yee have loads to prepare. Xiao Yee was kind enuff to help and even stayed overnight. We inflated the helium balloons at JP last night and brought them home. Surprisingly, Daddy Lim was so proud to carry 15 floating balloons in JP. In fact, he seems to be enjoying himself. -.o" The kids were so jealous of him.

Strangely, it was Xiao Yee who was embarrassed and refused to be seen with the balloons. We managed to squeeze all the balloons into Jazzie. Daddy Lim had to drive without the rear view mirror. We cant even see my sis who was sitting with the balloons in the back of the car. I think she's glad not to be seen too. Haha.

Once home, we went into cupcake baking mode and was at it for almost 3 hours. By the time we were done with the cleaning up, it was 1am already and I literally dragged my tired feet to bed.
Daddy Lim still need to go back to work on Sat morning. My sis and I woke up early and started preparing the baked cupcakes, putting on buttercream and decorating them with the earlier made fondant decorations.

The finished products.

Then it was more decoration and waiting for the guests & princess to arrive.

This is the bouncer cum ball pit that we rented for Lil Shauna. It wasnt cheap - $86 for 1 day. But I am glad that we did rent. The kids had great fun in it.

I would like to think that the place is nicely done up. In fact, I think I will be happie if I am one of kids invited for the party. Hohoho.
