Reunion Lunch at Din Tai Fung Paragon

My annual reunion lunch with my cousin and her friends. As we arrived early at Paragon, I brought the boys up to the Playground to play while we wait for my cousin and her friends to arrive.





YAY. Everyone is here so we each ordered one dish meal for ourselves and a Lou Hei to share. It took about 20mins for them to prepare before it came out.



and the tossing begins!

Jade // Watercolour Chinese Painting Cheongsam

 another baby girl cheongsam i bought online for Baby Jade...albeit long but so cute!

Reunion Dinner at my parents' place

Lunar New Year in Singapore is never complete without Lou Hei - a tradition that involves everyone at the table to participate and say auspicious chinese sayings to usher in the new year.
 This year, my mum went to Imperial Treasure to tabao a Lou Hei back for us to toss! was a bit dry after the tossing but my mum says it's healthy without the oil. The Lou Hei usually comes with oil but this one only has Yuzu sauce.

Reunion Lunch at my in-laws

For Lunar New Years, I usually will have a reunion lunch at my in-laws and reunion dinner at my parents' place. This year is no exception. So after my work, hubs drove the whole family down to his parents' place for lunch.

While waiting for my brother-in-law to arrive and MIL is busy preparing the steamboat, I had a wefie with my 2 cuties!!!

James // 4th Birthday

hubs says that James enjoy his birthday celebration here as compared to St James Kindergarten. I guess it's because he knows his classmates better. St James has this practice where they will shuffle the children every year between classes. This is to encourage social well-being amongst the children and not to let some children too dependent on others.

Well I suppose they are somewhat right about that which makes James a bit nervous every time when the year starts and he has to start making new friends again when his "old" friends have moved to other classes.

well James.
mummy can only say - "life's like that."



James // Dinosaur Theme Cake

I ordered plain strawberry sponge cake from Four Leaves and decorated it byself. The stone candies are from Giant, the dinosaurs can be bought from Daiso where I bought quite a few packets as part of James Birthday Party Pack favours.

I collected the cake in the evening and after we put the boys to sleep, I went to decorate it while hubs busied himself with the packing of the party packs.

James // 4th Birthday Party Packs - Dinosaur Theme

James birthday is actually on the 1st day of the Lunar New Year. So we can't really celebrate his actual day in school. So we are going to do it 3 days earlier!

and he loves dinosaurs at the moment and so I've decided to do a Dinosaur Theme birthday party for him.
