Keira turned 1 year old on 13 Sept, but we celebrated her birthday couple of days earlier to coincide with a weekend - 8 Sept. We invited immediate family members and close friends to join us in our previous' moment. Unfortunately... should I say unfortunate??? Well, it seems that I've always got something interesting to tell you all....So what was it this time?
Hmm, Keira woke up on 8 Sept morning with a fever!!! DUH! why??? Of all days, today when we were supposed to celebrate Keira's 1st birthday? Gosh... unfortunate? I think so... coz I dun think she enjoyed the day as we hoped for her to. Anyway... I have some pictures taken to show all my friends....
First of all, our attempts to set up the function room for the celebration. Frankly, I have under-estimated the energy needed to set it up! I thought it was easy..no brainer, simple and fast, no frills... Blarrrr... I was wrong! Pumping those balloons, tieing them and fixing up to create a "theme" is such a hassle....I actually felt sorry to have that feeling! gosh! So... here are some pics to show you...parts of the function room set up. Great efforts from Hb, my eld bro, my dad, Karin, SIL and I....
The next key item was the Cake! We booked the cake some 2-3 weeks in advanced. It was also a tough decision - maybe just me... I wanted Elmo-2D/3D cake in 2 kg but just couldn't find a nice one. Finally, hb settled for a No. 1-shaped cake with Sesame Street characters. Hmm.. it turned out pretty nice, and the kids at the party were thrilled with the cake! haha... so was I! The cake tasted great too! Till today, I was still mesmerized by it! Think I should order from this bakery on my next xx birthday ;p
Here's Karin, Keira and Valerie... the other kids looked on with same level of excitment, haha.
Finally, Keira and I :-). Poor gal, she had the fever thoughout the party. Party ended at 3pm, by the time we got home, it was almost 5pm.
And... we thought, and we were told... Keira had fever due to teething.... coz she had no cough, no running nose etc etc....Well, by the time we got home, her fever rose to 38.8 degrees, we brought her to KK hospital, it's just too high. By the time we reached KK, her temperature registered at 39.6! That warranted for emergency case, and we stayed for 1 hr with Dr's instruction to monitor her. Thank goodness, her fever dropped and we went home....
For the rest of the days, Keira was recuperating....
