On their actual birth ‘day’….
Posted in Celebration n Festivities, Friend, Milestones, Twins on Nov 23rd, 2009
Sometimes i’m pretty amazed at myself for the effort, sweats & every little things incurred just for their b’day…hey, it’s a yearly affair, wonder how long can i sustain it?? Many of you would have seen the photos of the party celebration we had for the boys during the weekend (14/11/2009) at Traders Hotel, KLCC over at my Facebook a/c (stories a little later ya in the next post). We had the party a little late this year to accomodate to my cabin crew sister’s schedule but their actual b’day was on a Wednesday, 11/11. So as custom calls for it (after experiencing what the rest of their friends did on their birthdays), the boys demanded that they want a cake to be shared with their tuition mates at the daycare centre after school that afternoon. And the call even demanded for party packs to go along with. Any busy mom could have just brushed aside the demand esp. knowing that there’ll be a special party for them over the weekend. But without any hesitation, my heart just swung by to fulfill their demands…it was an obligation full of willingness as their ‘bestest’ daddy gave his 100% support too (except that he only pays & doesn’t need to do anythg).
And so weeks ahead i started the task of sourcing party packs for the two groups of little peoples:
- his tuition mates on the brief cake cutting session on 11/11.
- his cousins on the party at Traders Hotel which only invites immediate family members.
Boy….as I was tremendously fussy & particular on the contents of both sets of goodies….in terms of cost, quality & healthiness, i ended up tiring myself so much as i walked arounds unnecessarily 
Not forgeting cakes sourcing for both events, organising & corodinating tasks with the hotel, with the guests, gifts, presents & etc etc
Anyway, things were over now & of course with the success of everything & the joys that i anticipated, all the hardworks were forgotten 
Here are the goodies for their tuition mates.
As we won’t be around to mann the cake cutting session (sorry….it was handed over to their teachers, haha), i thought it would be less hassle to have a cake without the messy CREAM, so jelly cake it was. This simple car jelly cake costs me RM150 as the smallest size was 2.5kg……regretted it big time, paid so much to eat colours
The contended birthday boys. Sean was especially touched that afternoon that he ran over to hug my big tummy while calling out ‘maaameee’ in a sweet tone (that was so unusual of him lor)

We let them have fun without our presence & only returned to pick them up around 6pm for our little family dinner at TGIF.
Below were our meals of pasta, steak & some kiddie meals. Everything tasted very good. I am not a beef person but somehow this preg’cy really brought about strange changes in me. I yearn to eat beef at every opportunity that i’m capable of despite my huby & MIL’s objections. I don’t understand the logic behind their objections. Anyway, the steak we ordered were exceptionally delicious…even my fussy foodie hubs also gave his high compliment. So we decided to let the boys try it. It was their first time as my whole family has been a non-beef taker all this while. I was surprise that SCOT loves it so much that i could see him munching slowly while appreciating the juicy taste of it. Then he can’t stop & kept asking for more, hahaha
On a side note, we had a very hillarious conversation that night. I thought since it was their 1st time eating beef, i might as well asked them what animal’s meat was beef belongs? To my horrondous surprise:
Sean (as usual without using his brain) answered ” LION ” ….. i got so angry at the stupid answer yet couldn’t confined my laughs, then i turned to his little brother.
