Jamie's School Cake

This cake was customised by ecreative. I saw this picture from the internet and thought it might be nice to have such cake for her since I couldn't find a suitable star theme cake at all the major cake shops here. It looks simple and plain yet I think its gorgeous too, isn't it?

Happy Birthday, Jamie!

Looking at Jamie now... I really couldn't believe my eyes that she is now 5! It's been 5years I have been home with her, seeing her growing, learning and succeeding in every of her little milestones. This is my priviledge as her mom. I thank God for His grace and loving kindness upon our daughter. I pray that Jamie will continue to grow to become the lady that God has intended for her.

Thank God It Has Been Great!

Wah... finally its over! I thank God for the wonderful party that Jamie and her lil guest had enjoyed so much! I am thankful for our helper who has been my right hand man for all the wrapping of presents, packing of the goody bags, pasting and sticking of labels etc. With her around, I do not rush or fuss over during the preparation for the party. Thank God for my dad & his fren who are willing to tag along wif me. I cannot imagine how I'm going to lug all the barang barang if not for them. And when we reached there, I was so shocked to find some folks & caterer still packing from the previous party 10mins b4 5pm ! Everything was in a mess and without any hesitation, I gently asked for "permission" to do the setup and deco. Just before the party commenced at 6pm, everything was up and ready to welcome the first guest! Pixs to be uploaded when CQ gets it from his colleague who was the photographer for the party. Thank you Fook Sin!

All Ready to Go!

Finally I have finished all the stuff for the party! Hurray!

Count Down

3 days to go before Jamie's birthday party !! I am excited yet worry that things will not turn out as what I intended it to be. I am hoping that the kids will have lotsa fun and most importantly, for Jamie to have a good memory of her 1st party with her friends.

1st Late Submission Homework

It was intentional to submit Jamie's school work later than the cut off date. I was filled with lots of things in my mind in the mist of preparation of her birthday party and our new house on top of the daily chores to follow up with. But I'm glad that we finally did it! We were 2 days late. Here's the final artwork we did w/i few mins when I had the inspirations of how to do up an insect using scraps materials as instructed.

What I'm Busy with?

This week is very crucial for me and CQ. Me ? Yup I'm rushing to finish up Jamie's ballet scrapbook (above) and CQ his photography project with a corporate client as well as the new house. We have never felt so busy before!

Work-In-Progress

Finally see some "real work" going in and out of our new place this morning when I swinged over for a peek. Took some pixs and am pleased with the color selection so far.

Jamie's 1st Year in School 2007

I've finally completed her 1st year of school at JCK. The album will be open for viewing during her birthday party next Sat.

Greetings for Singapore

This is one of the longest timeline given by Jamie's school. I received it on 3rd July and submission date is 18th! Still have one more artwork to do with her and gotta hand up by 21st July.

Invitation

Every year we will host Jamie's birthday party with mostly immediate relatives invited. However, this time round, I feel that we should focus on the lil guest instead. So I went "out" to invite those friends that Jamie wants them to attend. Just pray that the children will have lots of fun and I will have the capability to run such a party.

Renovation for Our 2nd Home-To-Be

Ever since the collection of keys on 29th May, we are still busy with things for the new house... and will be... As the date to completion is drawing nearer, we are getting more busy than ever! Plus the fact that I am also preparing for Jamie's birthday party (and her scrapbooks!) 2 weeeks later, hence, every day is fill with lots of things to accomplish. My life has never been so busy before!

Ikea Shopping Spree

It's been quite a long time ago when we did a huge shopping list at Ikea... 8years ago :o This shall be the children's bed at the new house, Jamie's fav!

Godly Woman ?

This morning I went for a 4hours workshop at our church, alone. Yup, I've signed myself up for the 2years programme. Hmm, its a wise choice indeed. At the end of the session, I was feeling kind of relieved perhaps knowing that I will be recharge and refresh, hopefully will get a new understanding of my purpose and destiny in life!

Banana Bread using AMC Pot

I had a cooking session with a fren who brought along the AMC sales rep to do some demo using their pots. This time, we did banana bread, egg tarts and fry a plate of vegetable dish w/o much oil and water. Great!

Busy, Busy, Busy!

If you ask me what I'll be busy with, well, preparing Jamie's scrapbooks b4 the party on 26th July! Already have 2 albums on hand to be completed by mid July (hopefully) so that I can complete 1 more b4 the party.

The Straits Time School Pocket Money Fund

Hahha we didn't even realised what our children were performing for till tonight! CQ gave some coins to Jeremy to donate into the metal tin during intervals and received a thick booklet. So this is what it's for...."The Straits Time School Pocket Money Fund was initiated on the Children's Day (Oct 1st) in the year 2000 by The Straits Times, to heighten public awareness of the plight of children from low-income families who were attending school without proper breakfast, or pocket money to sustain their day in school. The aim is to alleviate the financial burden faced by parents in providing for their children's education. At the same time the funds will help children who are already facing difficulties in remaining in school to stay on."

Happy Birthday !

Yummy, yummy! This is what's inside the "present" .. of course he received the real present (Nike bermudas) after the cake cutting at night when we came home from Jamie's performance around 10pm.

Happy Birthday Papa!

This looks like a present? It slipped my mind to remind jjpapa to open it when he reaches office. It's his special breakfast! More to come ....

The Straits Time Charity Show Full Dress Rehearsal

Finally ! Tomorrow and Saturday will be the actual performance. This will be a very good exposure for Jamie for performing on the big stage at Hwa Chong Institute.
