Le Xuan turns 4!!!!

Ooops, realised that I have not written any post about Le Xuan's birthday for the past 3 years.

This year, the feeling was kind of different as Le Xuan seemed so grown up.  She had been counting down to her birthday, and when it finally came, she woke up with excitement, hoping that we could give her birthday presents and of course a birthday cake.

Haha, Le Xuan didn't know that I had been secretly collecting her birthday presents with things like a kung fu panda storybook, fashion dress up book, rapunzel dress, pretty pink socks, princess pencil case, cute sharpener, bookmarks, hello kitty beads, crystal like sequins, musical box. But we wanted to only give her the presents at night during her birthday celebration.  So dear and I decided to give her the presents from papa (the bubble guppy bubble wand) as well as hanrong ah yi (princess accessories) first. She had seen these presents before but were very happy to receive them officially that morning.

In the afternoon, dear and I brought Le Xuan to Causeway Point as she wished to decorate her own birthday cake. So it's the Icing Room confectionery shop again. Although dear and I were pretty sure that she doesn't have the artistic flair, we were nonetheless happy to see Le Xuan enjoying herself when decorating her cake. But the disaster came when Le Xuan accidentally dropped the cake after taking photos with it, and she started crying. I knew she didn't mean it and it wouldn't have happened if i didn't ask her to take photos with it. So I decided to buy her another cake to decorate again, which also meant that her birthday cake was quite an expensive one, LOL.

With the first cake before the disaster

We had a simple dinner at Vista Point and Le Xuan was happy to receive a birthday present from Jiu Ma - a Hello Kitty Watch. Guess Le Xuan must be too used to celebrating her birthdays with jiu jiu and jiu ma as well, so she asked jiu ma if she would be going to our house after dinner to cut cake with her, haha. Finally the moment she's been waiting for, birthday party!! Dear and I asked Le Xuan to hide in por por's room while we prepared her birthday cake, and laid out all her presents on the sofa. When she came out, she looked so surprised and beaming with joy when she saw all the secret presents from papa mama, as well as presents from por por.

Thereafter, it's cake cutting time!  Le Xuan sat by her pink table while we sang her birthday songs. When we asked her to make a birthday wish, I felt so touched and overwhelmed to hear her say," I wish mama's stomach well." Needless to say, I cried and tried very hard to hide my tears. I feel so blessed to have her as my little princess. Xie xie lao gong, hee :P

Birthday Party Time

Le Xuan was so happy eating her birthday cake, and it was very amusing to see her carrying all her birthday gifts to her room and had her quiet time appreciating each and every gift. Couldn't help feeling that she had grown up so much more than I expected. Haha, but the real fun wasn't over yet.  What awaited us the following day was our overseas holiday to Hong Kong! And the second part of her birthday celebration would be the day at Disneyland.  :)
