Although Little Skywalker's birthday is not due in 2 days, J and I has decided to throw him his first party (although technically, it would not be his first as he already had it during his "full month") on last Saturday because we did not wanna be an inconvenience to everyone by having it on a weekday.

We also decided to have a family-members (except for J's family who live about 350km away) only affair. We booked a typical chinese restaurant (20 seats and 8 course dinner) and a nice cake for our Little Skywalker few weeks ago. About the cake, we wanted to customized a "1" cake for him, however, King's Confectionery would only accept orders with 2kg and above. We were like thinking "who the hell is going to shove down the 2kg if not the dustbin?". So, instead of contributing unnecessary donation to the ever full landfill, we decided to go for a 1kg strawberry fruit cake (Little Skywalker has a thing for fruit, he eats them during every meal).

So come the eventful evening, everyone has gather in my parents' place. We left for the restaurant around 7.30pm and collected the cake on our way there. This is the first time we eat in that particular restaurant as our earlier choice was fully booked and this was recommended. Anyway, it's a great chance to try out the food as there is a huge possibility that my brother's wedding dinner will be held here as well come December.

Upon arrival, we were led to a partitioned room with two tables and a private karaoke set. Everyone was quite surprise with the private karaoke set that comes with it. The young ones and the elder ones were particularly happy that night as they really sang non-stop.

The first dish was served (typical four-happiness kinda dish) and followed by sharks fin soup. Little Skywalker only managed to take in a bit of the soup as he was busy doing his PR with the rest of the small crowd. I was busy shooting photos everywhere in order to capture the joyful moment. J was trying to feed our son in any way that she can as usual, but I think Little Skywalker rather PR-ing his way through the crowd.

Half way through the dinner, we are beginning to unbuckle our belts and almost half of each dish were being sent to "ta-bao". My parents were seen singing more than eating most of the time. Little Skywalker was also busy having fun with my uncle (whom we rarely see due to his busy golfing schedule).

After the desert was served, we brought out the cake, lighted a candle and started singing the "Happy Birthday" thing. Almost instantly after the song finished, poor Little Skywalker burst out in tears and hell broke loose! Most of us were laughing while J and I quickly pampered him into safety from all the public staring eyes. Guess our son wasn't used to being the centre of attention after all.

In less than 5 minutes, Little Luke was cool again (apart from the red eyes) and did his candle blowing and cake-cutting thingy with some help (from yours truly). Everyone took a piece of the cake and party's over...

Well... all's well for the first year, hopefully he will get used to the Birthday song next year...

Happy Birthday Son !! (From all of us who love you...)
