and Hao is SIX!!

Just had an early birthday celebration for Hao yesterday in his school. We had a big birthday cake in the shape of a race car tracks (with 4 cars) and goody bags for his classmates. Hao had been so excited since we ordered the car last week and had been thinking and planning about this day everyday. Poor Ee cried when he saw the cake that his big brother was going to get for his party, and demanded that we get him the bowling alley cake that he had always wanted for his birthday party in school. Sigh...sibling jealousy is indeed costly! My mum had a good suggestion that I bring Ee along to Hao's school for his birthday party and let him enjoy the cake and attention too. I thought it was a great idea, and packed him a goody bag with special favours, including the jellies that he loves so much.

Both of them was so excited yesterday morning and woke up very early to get themselves all dressed for the event. The cake was a sensational hit in the school and children from other classes just had to pop by to see the cake in awe :) Hao was really proud of it. They had a good time although it was a mere 30 minutes celebration. His classmates sang him the Happy Birthday Song, they took pictures with him, they enjoyed eating the cake and although Ee was a little shy with the crowd, he enjoyed himself too. I was really glad Hao can have a memorable birthday in his final kindergarten year. For his actual birthday on 6th June, I'll be bringing him and Ee to the Barney show and probably have a little party back home.

Renovation for the new home is still ongoing. We have met some issues since the start of the renovation, which we had been expecting since it's part and parcel of every renovation, and we've been meeting up with the interior designer consistently to try and resolve all the issues to the best we can. Slowly, we can start to visualize how it's going to be and we are all really excited about moving to the new house. Of course, I'm not all excited about CLEANING the new house at all, but I guess it should be manageable :P Now there's just the packing of stuff for the house move that I have to think about....
