Wonderful Birthday!
We were out playing the WHOLE day on Sunday to celebrate Matthew's 2nd birthday! 9am to 9pm! Lots of fun! We went to Matthew's favourite playground - SENTOSA, then to our favourite Japanese restaurant for dinner. I'll let the photos do the talking.
** First stop - Imbiah Lookout

>> Matthew's birthday cake no. 1

>> A family portrait

>> Matthew enjoying the cake. He "went" for the cake, as soon as we gave him his fork and refused to "feed" us till he had enough.

>> Matthew having fun at the Sentosa Flower Fest

>> Not forgetting Matthew's fav ride - CABLE CAR!

>> Ba Ba Black Sheep at the Sentosa Flower Fest
** Second stop - VivoCity

>> We took the Sentosa Express to VivoCity and had lunch at Food Republic. Matthew fed himself kway teow-noodles

>> So tired...
Then it was back to Sentosa to pick up our car and we made our way to Little India. We usually park our car at Little India station, gate A and take the train. It's free parking on Sundays and Public Holidays!
** Third stop - Clarke Quay
We had dinner at our favourite Japanese restaurant - Waraku. Matthew had rice with chawanmushi, udon from my Nabeyaki and soba from Mike's Tonkatsu Wazen.

>> Matthew drinking water from a big beer glass
After dinner, we had some time to roam around the riverside and Matthew spotted his favourite MITA building with colourful windows.

>> Riverside Walk
** Final stop - Por Por's house
We made a last minute decision to pick up the second cake from home to celebrate at my mom's place. When we picked up the cake on Saturday and Matthew saw the cake for the first time, he went, "WOW!"

>> Matthew's birthday cake no. 2

>> Another family portrait - we got to hold back Matthew from cutting the cake just to take this photo
Matthew was so tired that he was out in 10 minutes. But that was not before he held Mike's finger and gave a blow, saying "Matthew blow candle" in Mandarin. He sure had lots lots of fun!

Birthday Party
Matthew: My first birthday party was held on 25 February 2006, at my humble home. I invited lots of people, my grandparents, grand uncles, grand aunts, uncles, aunts, Megan, Yan Ting etc etc. Mommy ordered a Sesame Street fruit cake from Sweet Secrets and a big Winnie the Pooh agar agar. She also ordered catering from Fus'zin Palate for a simple tea reception. I received lots of presents and angbows. Thank you everybody! See ya again!
Mama: Here are some photos to share...
Simple deco in the house for the birthday boy. We put this up the night before. When he crawled into the living room in the morning, he was excited to see the banner.
Matthew wanted to be in his high chair when he saw the cake and agar agar and decided that they could be eaten. After we put him in the high chair, Mike hid behind the camera and I moved away, he glanced around, couldn't find us and burst into tears!
Matthew was curious with everybody singing Happy Birthday song. He looked around, puzzled.
The agar agar came with a candle as well, so Matthew had two candles to blow. Of course, he still doesn't know how to blow, so Papa and Mama blew the candles on his behalf.

Mike and Matthew opening his birthday presents the next day. Lots of presents. A Funtime Alphabet Pot, a Winnie the Pooh towel, a Funtime pull-along Ellie the Elephant, a Funtime Rainbow Ball, a Funtime Brick Truck, a Musical Circus Pop Onz set, a sliding car set, a wooden train set, Peek-a-Block Gobble & Go Hippo and a baby basketball set. Papa and Mama bought a bath toy set for Matthew to play during his bath time and a Winnie the Pooh Mega Bloks Train set.
