I couldn't stop smiling! The last time I felt the same way was probably during my grad dinner in 2005. Somehow I felt sooooo proud of the little one. DH might have thot I've forgotten all about his birthday.. (of course he was way off) but man... ur baby's first birthday celebration is nothing like I've ever imagined. Never felt happier.
So DH got back from work and helped me cleaned the house a bit.. the chores I can't do with afya sticking to me.. Then we all got dressed and Afya finally got to wear her one dress MIL bought for her months ago that was reserved for this b'day dinner. Siap nak bawak purse budak kecik nih...
Here's where we had our dinner. The trusty old japanese eatery where all the cook and waiters and waitresses migrated from moritomo (the one used to be in Jusco). The place was packed.. OH made reservations though so selamat. Menu consist of chawan mushi for yours truly then oysters, wagyu beef, spider maki, unagi, somekind of beef roll with inari mushrooms or something like that.. and sashimi. For some reason... (most prob due to all the beaming and being happy) everything tasted awesome. The freshest oyster ever.. sooooo fleshy.. even better that the ones in jogoya. mmmm sedapnyaaaa
Afya wasn't really prim and proper despite the pretty pink dress she's wearing.. she was bouncing, screaming, grabbing everyone elses' chopsticks, eating rice off the table etc. etc. but it all didn't matter coz.. I was too happy to be bothered. She did smell fishy at the end tho.
So during the dinner, she had her first shrimp (no allergies hurrah!!), sashimi, and wagyu beef also... hmm.. she appears to love sashimi and seems to prefer using chopsticks.

After the absolutely fabulous dinner, we head home while the in-laws went to get the birthday cake! While waiting we fooled around and try to get as many pictures of afya as we can before she gets cranky. Note: bedtime is 8pm
and the other party reached home with the birthday cake. LO still manages to hold up although dah merah2 mata dia.
Afya surrenders after a couple of cherries on floor and mushed blob of cake, off to bed she went while the adults engaged in some light conversations and the night ended with OH discovering that hidden package *wink*
Special thanks to all the members of the family
*I couldn't have wished for more*
EDIT: found a picture of us taken exactly a year ago also in kizuna. only thing that time was to celebrate OH's birthday only.
