2nd Birthday Celebration

Yesterday (Sunday) we had a simple birthday celebration for Reese in advance. Reese will be two on 30th September. Mmmm.. so fast and he is a big boy now. We had a good time and of course Reese was the centre of attention. He was so excited and happy when my parents, sister and two aunties came for dinner.

He had fun playing with them while daddy took some pictures and I was busy preparing dinner. I cooked curry pork ribs, fried balacan kangkung, fried curried prawns, a pot of soup(sai yong choi) and a mince meat taufu. My mum bought half a steamed chicken and some fried vegetables.

We all had a satisfying meal. Even Reese was happily sitting next to his Gong gong and my sister fed him some soup. Throughout the meal, he was quite happy to just sit with us and 'chit chat' with us. :)

After dinner, more playing with his grandaunties and aunt and later we took out his birthday jelly cakes. My sister bought a little bear jelly cake and early in the day we bought two small jelly cake with the face of Pooh bear and Mickey Mouse.

Reese was excited to see the candles and can't stop saying candle and wanted to touch the flame! He was amused when we sang him a birthday song. It was interesting to know that he actually ate some of the jelly cake! I think his taste bud is changing, he does reject sweet drinks as often and willing to try new sweet and salty food too. But still choosy when it comes to actually consuming his meals.

It was a good evening for all of us. Will have a special threesome do on his actual birthday...heheh...
