Princess Marissa 3rd Birthday Party!
Marissa mother who friend to my sister and her whole family were friend to my family has invited my family n siblings to join her beloved daugther Marissa at Kemensah Height, Ulu Klang. We arrive there a bit late because while preparing Baby Rayyan things, UPS come and handover my US parcel! More story on the bottom! We arrive there and meet Alia family and exchange story…. The main highlight is about my mom trip over Europe for two months and now she in ITALY spending romance time with my father and with the intruder by my sister
).
The food were great, Alia choose Nasi tomato and it cordinents along to fit the traditional taste of Malay cuisine… The best party is they have leng chi kang! I always love leng chi kang compare to cendol or abc. Then they have dominos pizza with KFC as side dish.
The party was organize by a party planning company as Alia is expecting his second baby end on May to early June. You go girl! They have clown to entertain children, face painting and balloons creator! Lively and happening birthday party indeed!
Most of the people who attending the party are relatives, family member, neighbour and closes friend to Alia herself and the family. Not a crowded party, but guest who come and go have their chat moment among themselves.
As for Baby Rayyan, he really enjoy seeing clown performing activities with games. He and hubby got balloon present! We did try party cone hat to him. At first he try to take out the hat, but we managed to divert his attention to his balloon at hand.
Studio Photoshoot at De One Studio, Sri Hartamas
For his 1st birthday, we decided to have his picture frame nicely in 12r or 16r and put at the entrance for the birthday party were held. So me and hubby decided to have a studio photoshoot for him. So far, I’ve selected either the Picture Company or De One Studio. Both company really have impressive profile. The Picture Company more to surelism photoshoot whereas De One Studio have a few option that I would like to try. I know De One Studio from the tv slot of Gugu Gaga Erra. So I thought that it would be okay to give them a try.
The arrangement with De One Studio were made in March to get Baby Rayyan appointment right. Because of work and room renovation, we are quite tied up with the schedule.
So after Princess Marissa birthday party, we drove to Sri Hartamas. We reached there quite early, while Baby Rayyan dozed off due to tired crawling here and there at Marissa birthday. We waited around 20 minutes for Baby Rayyan to woke up, while the photographer preparing the setup.
For Baby Rayyan photoshoot, we have choose three themes at first. First theme, is angel with naked body. Second, the Aladdin and Third theme will be Prince Rayyan! While preparing the first setup, I decided not to have the angel with naked body coz during his first picture photoshoot back while 2 months old…he had the shoot once. So, I’ve changed the theme to his normal wear just to be relaxed.
The photoshoot went well. At first, he quite blur about the whole thing and keep take out his Aladdin hat. Wearing his hat, he looks like a baby girl with chubby chicks! Really geram with him! ekekekekeke
Then the second costume change, he became the most handsome and cute prince I ever meet. With white shirt and jacket and pants, he look smart and tough. He sit properly at the children crown chair holding his sword and armour….he is totally a prince!
The third shoot is wearing his normal wear. The shirt bought at Cheatau’ shop in midvalley. I like to have Rayyan wearing those brand clothes compare to Poney because their range of clothes is perfect for baby and toodlers. They have cotton and linen for kids. Compare to Poney brand, not only the price is pricy, the quality not the same level as what the price is showing.
I only will buy Poney when they have really discounted bargain or warehouse sale. Other than that, no way!
But if you go to Indonesia, US or London make sure Baby Gap and Oshkosh on your priority list! Coz the price down there extremly cheap and affordable compare to KL. And I just discover that Ralph Lauren polo shirt is cheap if you are ordering from US!
Ok,back to the story, after shooting those three clothes. Its time to view all the picture. I must say that the photographer do execellent job to capture hyper active boy like Baby Rayyan.
There are around 100+ picture to choose from. From 100+, we have to choose 12 for the album book printing. 1 for 8R and we can choose extra to be printed at RM9.00 a piece for min of 25 extra picture selected. Unfortunately, that I got carried away with those lovely picture Baby Rayyan pose, I ended up to buy more that 40 pics. Can you imagine that. He just a cute boy and I adore his every pose. More picture will be coming up after we received all picture and album from De One Studio.
Prince Nazrin 3rd Birthday Party
On Sunday 11/4- we were invited by my friend E-car Nazrin to her son 3rd birthday party in Bandar Sri Putra, Bangi. We leave our house quite late because Baby Rayyan need to take his morning nap and also lunch. If not he will be grumpy and moody all the way. At 12:00 noon, me, baby rayyan and his nanny left house and fetch my hubby in Cyberview Lodge because his on duty on that day. We reached e-car nazrin house around 1:30pm. Lucky that the party is on. Unfortunately, I couldn’t meet my facebook friend Stephanie Liah and her adorable baby boy ryan raffael. May be next time will do.
Indeed the party have organized by eiymann mother herself with the present of Mr Clown. Children are well entertain and they serving nasi ayam, mee goreng, soft drink and a few dessert as a side dishes. The theme for eiymann birthday is Barney. So the tent is decorate with purple and apple green. Even the door gift bag is in green colour. Baby Rayyan got his first Barney placemat from Mama Eiymann. Thank u dear! Love ur door gift so much!
For this birthday party, not much Baby Rayyan could do or participate because he suddenly dozed off in the car after being hyper active with his nanny in the car. So Mama eiymann don’t have chance to hug Baby Rayyan.
We are not stoping for long time because, hubby need to get back to the office and me have to stop at supermarket to buy some things to be cook for the night.
I’m happy that mama eiymann invited me to her son birthday party. It’s been a while for me not to have invitations to any friend house because I’m too busy organize back my life. Now, I’m in control of my life. I would like to participate more on meeting new people and make new friend. Maybe some of you will said how desperately am I to have connection and relationship but life need that!









his bday is juz around da corner…yuhuu..neway, cutenye yg kt studio tue…
I love that you kept it simple! I think we all ogrfet about the purpose of the party. I just got married last weekend and we opted for a very simple, casual, no frills reception. I’m sure we had some judging eyes, but we are so happy with our super low cost basis. In the end, if all people remember are your decorations then they really didn’t come for the right reason.My niece is turning 1 next month and my sister has been planning the party for 7 months! She has put more time and effort into a party that the birthday girl won’t remember than I did into my very own wedding. I worry that my sister is working herself up into such a stressful frenzy that she will be miserable and it’s all to make a good impression on the fancy ladies in her upscale neighborhood.Kudos on your super simple kid-friendly party!

Itulah…tak per..plenty time to hang around. Besday Baby Rayyan…please do come ok! I really want to meet your handsome prince
I have been thinking a lot ltaley about gifts being expected, anticipated, and a source of guilt and joy all at once. It has been on my mind since I read a work newsletter entry about saving money that talked about shopping garage sales weekly (at least 10/week, they suggested) to maintain an affordable life style in lean times and to find socially obligated gifts . That made me so sad. If my friend is struggling financially, I do not want them spending any money on me. Why is it socially obligated to give gifts? Aren’t gifts supposed to be from the heart and because you WANT to honor that person?The other spark is some children I am close with; as they have grown- now Tweens, they call me to give me their lists without me even asking for a list. I am not sure that is polite. I could see a 3-5 year old being so excited and not understanding that it is impolite, but by 10 and 13 it is not as cute.The birthday registry. I would not send that out if I made one. I could see my Mom and my Mother-in-law really liking a dynamic list to use and shop online, but I think that would be the end of the line. My Mother-in-law shops off of amazon.com wish lists if she can find them. Each year she does this I feel less guilty adding things to my wish list; I started that list for me and sometimes the items are pipedreams or pricy and I do not want to appear to be greedy, but if she wants to buy some of the items, more power to her!
