Ful month pastry for relatives and friends

Got the moonpie cake from Le Cafe instead of those traditional gift box for relatives and close friends. Since Mid-Autumn festive is coming soon, thought this might fit in as well :)

   

Simple cake for colleagues from Choz

   

Door gift

Button magnets, red eggs and glutinous rice.

   

   

Chanced upon spotlight and saw these pretty cloths that matched perfectly for Ada's 1st month celebration theme. Instead of plain table cloth and buffet overlay, we bought this for the buffet line deco. DIY and got Liang's aunty to help sew into the respective sizes.

It was a super busy day and please accept my apologies if I did not get to spend much time with you. 

Photos are blogged in a very random arrangement but I have tried my best to organize and group the photos in accordance but it still looked a little messed up. Too much time needed to rearrange the photos, do scroll and 'look out' for your photos ok! 

Our sleeping beauty was very good, slept through the day and didn't get too fussy. 

Thank you Shuxian and Amanda for taking up the role of my personal photographer for the day! Muacks!

   

   

Nanny's last day!!

   Alpha button monogram 

Thank you everyone who has helped to piece up Ada's monogram. I will frame it up as her 1st month present for her to hang on her future bedroom wall, till she is all grown up and able to appreciate the gift from everyone's effort.

     

   

 

Thank you Lijun for helping to complete it!!!

 

Thank you everyone for the gifts and angbao for baby Ada.

We started with an intention to celebrate Ada's 1st month with our family only but after taking care of her for a few weeks, I've decided to go ahead and plan for a gathering as a significance to her attainment of a full month's survival in good health. I'm glad that we did it and thank you everyone for the love that you have for us and Ada! 

Thanks for all the well wishes again, and I'm sure although baby Ada was sleeping most of the times, I believed she felt all the love from you all.
