Super Shane turns 3 today!!!
This morning when he woke up I said to him, “happy birthday Shane!”. He looked at me with a bright smile and said, “happy birthday, mommy!”. 🙂

Since we just came back from our Korea trip and with starting school and adjusting to new schedules, we decide to keep the party small.
We had Andrew’s brother’s family and my-mother in law over for dinner and some treats.

Cousin Emily (4) & Joshua (7)

He made this crown at school today.

Happy birthday my son. I’m so grateful that God gave me a son like you. I love you so very much.

Another baby shower. done.

It was all girls baby shower, so I took Chloe with me.

She loves to read books as you can see.

I had the joy of meeting Amy and Terrence’s new baby, Andrew. How precious…

I found my wedding gifts to them on the walls of their new fancy brooklyn apartment.

Congratulations, Jenn and Rich!

We did some cool art projects at the museum.

Chloe’s masterpiece

We walked around the soho area with the kids and it was nice. Now that Shane’s old enough to know not want to constantly run away from us, we can finally enjoy our walks in the city.

Then again, now Chloe wants to be carried all the time.

These two were talking about mermaids, princesses, dresses, evil Ursula, and seashells…

while Shane and I focused on eating.

Taking the Christmas photos in front of the tree… check.

making the lists, writing cards, wrapping the gifts… Check. Check. Check.

decorating the house… Check.

I'm feeling pretty good about myself… 

While I was busy preparing decorations and setups for the party, Andrew asked me the most daunting question. What are we doing with 18 kids in one place?? (uhm… we can't even control two of our own, he said) So after having a small panic attack, I calmly searched online for a solution. And I found it.

**Tinkerbell**  from My Fairy Tale Party! Everything they were telling me sounded so good. And it was all true~

There was face painting,

craft projects,

tattoos,

dancing, and lots more…

then Chloe got anointed as a princess,

and got a tiare. 

Happy birthday my little princess…

Thank you everyone who came to wish her a happy birthday and made the day very special for us!

The birthday girl is here!

We rented out a space from our church building for the party.

Before the cakes arrived,

Ta da~! 
I ordered the cupcakes, cookies and the birthday cake from A Lili' Tasted of Heaven and she did a wonderful job. I gave her pictures and drawings of what I want and she did just that and more!

My little girl turns four today!

I made 15 of these tissue paper flowers for Chloe's birthday party. It's going to be pink…very pink.
