Azfar's 2nd Birthday Celebration.

I buat kat Papa John's Shah Alam Mall on the 14 April 2012 from 3.30pm - 5.30pm. AMBOIII...bukan main lagi makan pizza. Well..well apa salahnya sekali sekala, lagipun I guna ni

hahaha...sedang elok la pun offer valid until 30 April 2012. Kalau tak sorila kita buat kat rumah jer. I invited close family members jer adalah about 18 adults (include 3 maids) and 14 kids aged 4 months - 13 years. Just a small celebration with a simple decorations by me (except the Papa John's balloons). The theme is supposed to be Thomas & Friends since birthday boy is so into it.

 So there was one huge Thomas the tank engine foil balloon that can lasts up to 2 weeks. Better be because this balloon is not cheap.

But I couldn't find any thomas partyware so I bought Mickey Mouse Clubhouse which is also one of his favourite cartoon character.

This is the so-called candy buffet table which consists of blueberry & choc cupcakes, marshmallow & birthday cake. The actual plan is to include cheesecake in a cup...but...but tak larat nak buat and masa mencemburui I jadi kita lupakan aja.

The full view of my candy buffet table...ahaks.

Sebelum bermula, ada bacaan doa selamat oleh tok mi...Aaminnn mudan-mudahan Muhammad Azfar bin Zairin Shah membesar menjadi anak yang soleh dan berjaya dunia & akhirat.

I love to see kids mixing around with each other and having fun to the max. So I have arranged few activities for them.

1. Colouring Contest - to complete the colouring of thomas the tank engine within 15 minutes. And they enjoyed it so much.
Winner : Hakeem & Zulaikha (bukan pemilihan secara profesional pun, pakai petik jer)

2. Pecah belon - setiap belon ada token. Siapa yang dapat token yang ada gambar thomas dapat hadiah. *birthday boy nak jugak*
Pemenang : Nina

3. Cari token bawah kerusi & meja ( tak sempat ambik gambar)
Pemenang : Qistina

Ok now let's sing birthday song to the birthday boy...*Happy Birthday to you...Happy Birthday to you...Happy Birthday to Azfar...Happy Birthday to you*

Ok, million thanx to my beloved families for celebrating Muhammad Azfar's 2nd Birthday.

Happy 2nd Birthday Baby Boy.

Owhhh he's no more a baby boy but he's a big boy already and growing up like a champion. I'm kinda miss the time when he was a little baby that I used to hug n cuddle most of the time. Well...it's not that I can't hug or cuddle him anymore now but at this age...haiyooo I tell you...it can only last for not more than a minute unless if he's asleep.

* fresh from the oven *

*Aqiqah*

* at 2 months old...debot...debot *

*Super adorable smile*

* 1st Birthday Party*

Below are the proves why I said he's no more a baby boy...hehehe.

* dah pandai ngorat awek *

* dah pandai main tutup botol...? *

* dah pandai buat cookies *

* dah attend kelas memandu *

* dah lulus bawak kereta dan penumpang *

Dan yang paling menyentuh naluri keibuan bila sudah berjinak-jinak dengan solat dan mengenali Allah SWT...yang menciptakannya.

Semoga menjadi anak yang SOLEH dan berjaya dunia dan akhirat....InsyaALLAH.

National Zoo Trip.

This Zoo trip was meant for Azfar, which to expose him to the real animals life. All this while he only got to see all the animals either in the television or from his books. This trip was planned somewhere end of January but due to reasons that can't be avoided, we postponed it. So we went there on the second week of March...*Lawatan ke Zoo Negara merangkap cuti-cuti Kuala Lumpur*... We left the house about 10.30 am and the traffic on that day wasn't good enough all the way from Shah Alam to Jalan Ampang.

As we reached the parking entrance, I was actually very excited as compared to Azfar. En Zairin pun excited jugak sebab kami dah berpuluh taun tak pi. Last sekali masa tadika ka sekolah rendah ka pun tak ingat dah...huhuhu.

Ok let's start the journey and have fun.

Yoo..oo..oo friends, i'm at the Zoo.

Tuuut...tuuuttttt...tuuut.....tuutttt. Ok we have to take the train ride first. Ni pun kene bayar? RM3/dewasa....caittt. Dahla masuk pun kena bayar. Takpalah.

Of all the animals in the Zoo, Azfar love these the most...goats. Haihhh...kat kampung Puchong pun boleh dapat.

'Wowww...you such a huge animal.'

'Meet my new friend, Mr Tiger.'

Abang-abang, wait, let's be friend. I wanna join you running here and there.

'I am so exhausted'

Ok after spending about 3 hours at the Zoo, Azfar was so tired and he felt asleep right after we entered the car right to the hotel room.

*letih sungguh*

Later that night we had dinner at Wadi Hadramawt Restaurant Jalan Ampang, a Middle East Cuisine.

*Lamb Khabsa*

*Chicken Mandy*

*Mix Grilled Wadi Hadramawt*

*dengan pelahapnya Azfar makan...laparrrr*

The next day activity was swimming. It's a must for him to get into the pool before going home.

*Abah quick!*

Ok, for sure we will come again and visit all the animals but dunno whenla.

Such a cute cake.

The last 2 weekends, Yon, my eldest sister wanted to do a small birthday party celebration for her eldest daughter, Nina. At first she said she would invite a few of Nina's close friends but at the very last moment she cancelled it because Nina's friends aren't around...*school break kan jadi ramai pergi jalan-jalan la*....so it end up with celebrating it with our family only and at the very last minute also, Angah, my second sister was thinking to celebrate her second son's, Eiman, birthday party which falls at the end of March,
so...2 in 1.... la.

At the same day also, Mak wanted to 'belanja makan' as what she had promised earlier if she got the BR1M money. The 'anak-anaks' suggest something light and to have it at home jer, either pizza or satay...mak wanted pizza and Yon suggested Papa John's pizza so we bought that. And I used this coupon to purchased....wah manyak jimat wooo......

Around 6pm the three of us went out to hunt for the birthday cake. Options that we have here is either Baker's Cottage, Secret Recipe or Baskin Robbins. First to Baker's Cottage, next to Secret Recipe...hmmmm.... the same flavour, design as always and nothing special on that day. Next to Baskin Robbins, and we were like so 'jakun' especially both of my sisters....hahahha...because that was our first time hunting for Baskin Robbins ice-cream cake, if ice-cream tuh biasalah kan. Upon looking at the fridge that was full with ice-cream cake, our eyes caught this one fancy cake at the same time and we were like...wah cute nyer...cute nyer....erkkk....control sikit ye.

Wait...there's a problem. There are only 6 cones but we have 7 kids at home.

Us: 'Can you add another cone in the middle with the same design?'

Shop assistant: 'Sorrylah kak tak boleh sebab kon-kon tuh dah melekat kuat.'

Us: 'Then maybe you just do separately and place it in another box.'

Shop assistant: 'Sorrylah kak designer dah balik. Akak boleh beli 1 kon extra aje tanpa designla.'

Us: Hurmmm...frustrated.

I said, don't worry because I don't think Azfar will berebut for the cones but thinking that he might and the chances for him to bertolak ansur is 0%, Ok2 let's not pening-pening kepala just get another 1 scoop of ice-cream...pandai-pandailah nanti kalau Azfar nak yang decorated nyer.

*Birthday girl and boy*

*Tuan Hj Mohammed Kamil's & Rabiah's grandchildren*

p/s: The next day, RM 70 goes down the drain as half of the cake melted due to no space in freezer to place the ice-cream cake. It was placed in the chiller only...owh...
