Celebrating Sairah’s 365 Days of Existence

27 Sep

Disclaimer: All photos are courtesy of Ezra Plus Photography while photos labelled with  (A) are thanks to my friend Anusha. Both of these parties did an EXCELLENT job capturing these precious moments as it is and I can’t thank them enough. There are approx 500 photos, only 92 made it on this blog post and even then I”m really just tempted to upload em ALL! :D

Gosh, if someone were to put a  gun to me and say bitch pick a single ONE photo that you love, I would rather say you know what, shoot me coz I love em ALL! That is how strongly I feel about ALL the of Sairah’s Birthday Party photos coz each photo tells a story and how we’re connected to each people in the photo :D

Venue: Tappers Cafe, Bangsar South

The Decor

(A)

The Door Gift

The personalized guestbook :)

Uncle Roshan signing the book :)

PRESSIES! Best part of the party, hehe

FOOD! Also the best part of any party :D

Hubby’s Aunt from Guam – she is GORGEOUS! No one ever believes me when I tell em she has 3 kids.

Heart this photo – nothing like some good satay on a Friday afternoon yo.

Nick – before he stained his clothes. Then again, he said stained shirts are always an indicator of good food, lol

Lil Princess made her way about half an hour after all guest had arrived.  Obviously the star of the party just HAD to make a grand entrance :) She was most definitely in the DAZE and I don’t blame her. She did thread the restaurant very very carefully, most of the time wondering what the heck is going on.

Her gorgeous tutu dress is courtesy of one of my besties in the UK. Thank you Wylane, it looked perfect on her.

(A)

Hmm something verrry strange is going on here.

But I”ll get to the bottom of this SOON.

The Berglunds – My bestie!! Her hubby flew in from Singapore just to attend Sairah’s 1st Birthday. Can’t thank them both enough!!

With my ex-classmate Minna and her toddler Vera.

My dad’s cousin

And her son

Dhash’s cutie pie Nikhil and her niece.

My ex-classmate with her hubby and son. Check out the thumb’s up sign, lol

Balloons on the floor – always a kid’s pleaser.

When relatives meet after a long time :)

More relatives from my side :) Sri Lankans uniteeee!

Macha KK and his ever charming expressions.

(A) The Billy Goaties (the hubby has since shaved that crap off his face after I nagged him 2 days in a row)

Dad’s cousin and a close family friend.

 Madhu, her hubby and her sweetheart son, Siddarth. Check out those BIG eyes!

After a while, mom and I actually changed her outfit into the dress I got her in Phillipines. YES, there was actually a dress change, lol. I was only 2 months pregnant when i got that dress :) It FINALLY came to good use. And to think I only paid less than RM40 for it?

(A)  At the same time it finally sunk into my baby’s mind that it was indeed HER special day and boy did she make the most of it. Till today the hubby and I often wonder where does she get those attention-loving genes from since we’re both on the quiet side.

YAY it’s my parttaaaay *clap clap*

(A) I’m soooo happyyyy todaaaay!

And because I’m sooo happppy everyone gets a flying kiss *muaaah*

(A)

(A) Mommy and Baby with the same expression.

(A) All three with the mouths open

(A)

Sairah and her Subang Grandma (otherwise known as my mom’s sister / my aunt, hehe)

Vera teaching her how to blow

Okay Sairah are we ready to cut your birthday cake?!

Can we cut the cake now hubby?

Thank you Eunice for the wonderful awesome cake. Everyone was super pleased.

Pretty obvious that Sairah-Bear would get a BEAR cake isn’t it? :D

Sairah’s first candle – make a wish baby girl.

(A) Chopping the bear’s head. Felt so bad after that. Having a cute cake is hard sometimes!

(A) Birthday girl having a taste of her own cake.

She obviously approved. Doing her signature ‘tadaaaa’ and enjoying every single minute of it.

Mommy and Daddy butchering cutting the cake.

Okay what should I get up to next mommie?

Then all of a sudden that lil girl went on a KISSING spree

One kiss for Siddarth.

One kiss for cousin Kasi

Another kiss for Uncle

God knows how many people she kissed that day. Daddy needs to a buy a shot gun soon I reckon.

GROUP PHOTO!

With Dhash, her hubby, Nikhil and her niece.  Believe it or not but we actually met on my blog! From exchanging emails and tips many times, I’m so happy that she showed up for Sairah’s birthday. Plus now that Sairah actually kissed her son on his LIPS, I’m guessing there will be many more playdates to come :D

The Loh Family

Sairah giving away the door gifts to the babies.

More loving from Aunty Anusha

And then came Uncle Kavin

Uncle Roshan adjusting Princess Sairah’s crown. Doesn’t get more awwww than this!!!

Ah yes, seconds before the lil one planted a kiss on Nikhil, lol

(A) Sairah and her grandpa, hence the lansi face :)

(A) The friends.

(A)

(A) Okay people, byeee and thanks for coming to my parttty! Hope to see you again next year.

(A) Ohh no we’re coming to an end :(

(A)

(A) Yay let’s go home and open my pressies mommie. And damn I have such a proud mommie face here.

(A) Huh?? What do you mean the party’s over already???!

And that ladies and gentlemen was Sairah’s FIRST Birthday Party Bash *tadaaaa*

      Aww thank you so much Az!

  4. Nat 27. Sep, 2011 at 7:49 pm #

    Love the photos. Really capture the moments. Kudos Baby mama for such elaborate planning and deco. I sure wished I had that baby bottle souvenir, it would make a nice office desk deco at my work place. ;-)

    I just can’t stop emphasizing, that Baby Sairah is going to grow up being such the looker! Courtesy of her parents of course. ;-) Better start filtering through the request from world re-known modeling agencies.

    Glad to see Roshan pix too. But where’s his money shot smiles? =( Still a cutie though. *Not a stalker, merely an admirer. ;-P *

    • TheMissusBlogs 28. Sep, 2011 at 9:27 am #

      Thanks Nat, agree that each photo captured the moment beautifully. Hahaha I would send you one for souvenir sake but we ran out of those bottle – everyone wanted one! :p

      Aww thanks! Hahahaha her grandfather got so upset when I irritated him by saying Sairah should be a model.

      Aaah glad you like it ;) But no smiley shot coz the dude has been stressed out at work, lemme see if I can get him to smile next time, just for ya ;)

  5. Nat 27. Sep, 2011 at 7:57 pm #

    haha… sorry, finally read through the post in detail.

    I love how you keep springing daddy’s gonna buy a shotgun joke. Really tickles my imagination. LOL.

    • TheMissusBlogs 28. Sep, 2011 at 9:28 am #

      Don’t blame you, there are afterall 92 photos, lol.

      I know, can you imagine my hubby standing around with a shotgun? I suppose the stupid goatie would help at that point to create a ‘rough’ don’t mess with my daugther look! :eek:

      • Nat 28. Sep, 2011 at 9:42 am #

        Hahahahha… you really help jump start my day. kakakaka.

    • TheMissusBlogs 28. Sep, 2011 at 9:29 am #

      Hi Ezra, yes had a tough time deciding which ones to upload since I love em all! We should be thanking you for photographing the moments beautifully so a big thank you to you and Joel :)

      • Ezra 28. Sep, 2011 at 2:46 pm #

        Beautiful moments made possible by the people around at the time =)

  7. whimsicaljottings 27. Sep, 2011 at 11:07 pm #

    Such a cheery baby she is.

    But WHY is she kissing all the BOYS only?? *alarm bells* ;)

    • TheMissusBlogs 28. Sep, 2011 at 9:30 am #

      Thanks, was worried that she’d be fussing around during the important moment of cutting the cake but thank god she was fine.

      LOL I have noooo idea, like I always tell her, she’s one gatal baby, hehe.

  8. Jovyn 28. Sep, 2011 at 9:09 am #

    Lovely event and super duper cute Baby Sairah!!!
    Love your blog too…:D

    • TheMissusBlogs 28. Sep, 2011 at 9:31 am #

      Aww thanks so much Jovyn and thanks for reading and liking my blog :)

  9. Dhash 28. Sep, 2011 at 9:37 am #

    Finally got chance to comment again! :-) It was an awesome party, and I think the highlight was the STAR herself — she was in such good mood and good behaviour, it’s amazing!! She smiled and waved and kissed the boys — true princess behaviour, LOL!!
    I think I looked thru the photos like 5 times, so amazing! Good job Ezra! I’ll target u for my son’s birthday party, hehe!! :-)
    Anyways, it was a well-organized party… And I agree — U should sign Sairah up at some baby-modeling agency… She’s so camera-friendly and so cute, she’d do really well…
    P.S – Being true Indians, should we check our kids “porthum” before we let them kiss again? LOLX!!!! Just kidding! Will arrange a playdate soon ya….

    • TheMissusBlogs 28. Sep, 2011 at 10:31 am #

      Fuh, thanks thanks for your wonderful comment :) You know I was REALLY afraid she was gonna be fussing around and be plain naughty coz she was exactly that a day before. So it was a relieve to know princess was actually being all princess-y, lol, though it took her sometime to be usual self.

      Yea good job Ezra, now we know you have a potential customer in Dhash :)

      I guess all that running around paid off. Aiyoo we’ve been putting off the whole casting thing one too many times already, maybe we’ll take her there soon and see. Not that many babies are required for ads thesedays. At least now at this moment.

      P.s: Too late, already kissed so now we just let them meet again, haha. Sure thing :)

  10. Just Me, The Mrs 29. Sep, 2011 at 2:26 pm #

    Oh WOW! The event was planned so superbly! And Sairah is just simply awesomely cute!! :)

    • TheMissusBlogs 29. Sep, 2011 at 2:31 pm #

      Thank you thank you, all that effort paid off I guess :) Aww thanks! Kisses from Sairah!

  11. Val 29. Sep, 2011 at 4:45 pm #

    Happy belated birthday baby Sairah ! Hope all your wishes come true and you grow up to be beautiful, gorgeous and intelligent lady. Keep that cheekiness always !

    • TheMissusBlogs 29. Sep, 2011 at 5:15 pm #

      Awww thank you Val for those kind words. Haha the cheekiness will always be there I’m sure :)

  12. Fieran 29. Sep, 2011 at 6:49 pm #

    Wow, such a nice birthday party :) The door gift is the cutest (after Sairah that is). Looks like Sairah had a lot of fun :)

    The food looks so good *droool*

    • TheMissusBlogs 30. Sep, 2011 at 9:33 am #

      Thanks babe. Haha I love that one too – something different for sure. Ya she was on her best behavior too, thank god.

      Gotta thank Tappers for that :) It’s one of my fav cafes :)

  13. SC 02. Jan, 2012 at 9:13 pm #

    Hi! May I know where you get the door gift and how much do they cost? Thanks!! Great party :-)

    SC

    • TheMissusBlogs 03. Jan, 2012 at 9:19 am #

      Hi SC, thanks alot! You are refering to the milk bottle? You can get it from House of Favors (www.house-of-favors.com) in Bukit Jalil. I think I paid about RM2 per bottle. You can fill it up with smarties and hersheys kisses.

    Hi thr, lovely party – simple & classy fit for the pretty princess!

    Care to advise if any min. head count required to host such party at Tappers?

    • TheMissusBlogs 05. Nov, 2012 at 11:54 am #

      Hi G, thank you so much for the lovely comment.

      I think minimum is about 35 people if I”m not mistaken. I had about 55 people for my party. You can contact Florence from Tappers at 017-3300006 to enquire further :)
