In the twinkling of an eye, Baby Louisa is 5 weeks old. Thank God for a smooth (albeit mostly sleepless) 5 weeks. We celebrated her 1st month last weekend. It was a major gathering of relatives and some friends at the function room of the condo we're staying at.
It was great fun planning her first major party (duh, this is so characteristic of me. I just enjoy planning such events - limited by $ only...). The best part? Daddy actually felt very happy at how the whole thing turned out. Well, he is not one who enjoys planning parties and entertaining...not that he is a A-social...he just doesn't take too well to socialising. But that was then. Now, he's beginning to enjoy socialising - ala Daddy's style.
Daddy told me that when he went to hand the function room back to the security guards, he actually felt a tinge of sadness...Sad that the whole event is over. It touched my heart that Daddy actually enjoyed the celebrations so much. I don't know why, but my heart was warmed. And Daddy was happy with how the gift packs (a goodie box [with 2 red eggs, 2 ang ku kuehs, 2 chocolate bars and a birth announcement card] and chocolate cakes [6 petit fours]) turned out. The gift packs were MY idea (thank you *curtsy*). I searched the internet and sourced them out. I was afraid that Daddy would scold for spending such money...but he was happy with how nicely they turned out. Phew!
I hope everyone who received them loved them too...It really feels different when you are planning a party or event for your child. I guess it's because it's for someone other than yourself.
