Dom's 1st Birthday

The title says it all....it's Dom's 1st Birthday!

Can't believe how fast time flies. It was not too long ago that Dom came into our family, making our life complete. We love his smiles, laugh, cries, whines and every little thing he does. He always makes our day better. We are always there to capture his moments...mostly his firsts! Wouldn't miss it for the world! And now....my little baby is 1. Then comes the terrible 2s. Let me take all this slowly. I need to enjoy his babyhood day by day.

Back to his birthday party...the best thing is we celebrated in Penang...in our house! But then I have to admit that...nothing tops all those who came that night even though it was raining cats and dogs the whole night. They are the best!!!

We took a road trip back this time. We drove from Singapore to KL. Then stop for 2 days before we head back to Penang. Then that's when all the cleaning and cleaning and cleaning starts. Despite all that, we still have a lot of fun. We always have fun, as long as 5 of us are together, no matter where we are in the world.

We chose Pocoyo them for Dom's big day. Simply because it's his favourite cartoon since he was like few months old. We engaged a party planner, photographer and also caterer for the day. Everything turns out very well. The weather, well, it actually gets everyone closer together. Literally! Imagine my humble little house packed with about 50-60 people. I love all these gatherings of family and friends!

Well, like I always said....a picture paints a thousand words.

 Here are some of the pictures of friends and relatives that came. A million hugs and thanks to them for making the night a memorable one. (only picked a few pictures to post cause there are waaaaaay too many to upload everything.)

Then comes the cake cutting ceremony....we had all the kids lined up. Everyone gathers around to sing birthday song for Dom. He loves the attention he's getting.

Little rabbit!

Little reindeer!

Presents time!

After a tiring night...Dom decides to drink his own Pocoyo brand mineral water.  :)

Hope you enjoy looking at the pictures as much as we enjoyed the party.
