5 days shy ...

O-boy is that many days shy of turning THREE !

sorry for not updating my blog sooner ...

been a little busy preparing

for O's birthday ....

ole mummy here was rather ambitious ...

i set out to make his party packs, invites, birthday banner

and a bunch of other crafty stuff ....

soon i realized that it was too much an undertaking

so , i discarded the invites ...

i was left to do his banner and party packs !

phew !

banner took a few nights ...

glad to report that it is completed ....

all "HAPPY BIRTHDAY OMAR KOH EE" !!!!

double phew ...

now have to think of how to hang the banner come Sunday ..

next, came the party packs ...

i must have made approx 50 of those packs

half for his party and other half for his

classmates from MG and LW ....

being a total novice at party planning ...

i had to do a little scouting

of what items to place in the packs

being ever so mindful of not

loading it with too many sweeties ....

heee .... i kept the sweets to minimum (sorry kiddos)

cos i remember cringing when i saw

what was in some of the party packs

O-boy has received in the past ...

so ... party packs made and packed ... checked !

kinda felt guilty for not providing much

interms of sweets for the party ...

i mean what's a party without sweets rite ?!?

ole mummy then had brilliant plan

of getting a pinata as part of the

kiddies entertainment

..... and guess what ???

last weekend O-boy, hubs and me

had a good time stuffing the pinata with

LOADS of sweet gooodies !!!!!

promise to post pics of the day

made this layout sometime back

only had the chance to load it today

love the photo of O-boy

living loud and so totally like him to have

his tutu in the mouth and

my green hairband as headphones !

Thanks for dropping by !

loves,

2 years, 11 months, 2 days ....

and we finally got our king sized bed back ... all to ourselves ...
heee ...
O-boy has moved out of our bed and into his own room with his own bed ...
transition has been quite smooth ...
no tears or meltdowns (both him and the mummy)
few hiccoughs though ...
he wakes up me up and drags me to his room ...
and when he falls asleep again ...
i sneak off back to my bed ...
this is repeated 2-3x these past 3 nites ...

so, if you spot a panda-eyed woman travelling from bedok to buona vista ...
that will be me ...

no regrets though ...
we (O and me) are learning to be independent of each other ...
all part of growing up ...

but, how i miss his warm little body next to mine ... sigh ...

on a brighter note ...
the layout i submitted for MWL's mid month challenge by Pooi was
chosen as this month's winner ...
the one with O-boy and the tub of nutella ... hee ...
a very nice surprise ...

i am looking forward to the long weekend ...

thanks for dropping by ...
