Painting the Town Red on Zoe's Birthday!

Last Sept. 9, we took Zoe out to celebrate her birthday.

We already hung her birthday poster and banner the night before so that when she wakes up, she would be delighted to see the picture of Dora on the wall.


That morning, we brought her to church first to attend mass as a thanksgiving.


On the way home from the mass, we decided to pass by the nearby Jollibee/Red Ribbon to buy her french fries and a small birthday cake.


We left the house again before lunch and headed for Megamall where we ate at KFC...



...and dropped by Toy Kingdom (she had a blast!).


We also passed by SM Department Store to buy Zoe her birthday outfit plus a dora item that could serve as her cake topper. We were really supposed to buy her big birthday cake from Goldilocks since they offer a Dora character cake. However, the lady at the store was disgusting to deal with so we decided last weekend to just order a generic kid's 2-tiered birthday cake from Red Ribbon and just put a Dora statue on top of the cake.

Anyway, after that shopping spree, Zoe fell asleep and so we decided to go to SM Hypermart in Julia Vargas and leave her first with the yaya in the food court while we buy additional foodie items for the party.

After that, we headed for Ark Avilon Zoo near Tiendesitas.



She really enjoyed looking at the animals there...



We were home by 6:30 p.m., just in time for dinner and her candle-blowing. :-)
It was a very happy birthday!

Zoe's 2nd Birthday Party!

Image
Caution: Loaded with pictures!!! Everything was set for Zoe's 2nd birthday party. We initially invited only a few close family and friends but then our guest list ballooned up to more than 60 people on the day before. No regrets because it turned out to be so much fun! First, the FOOD! We asked the help of my SIL to cook kare-kare and kalderata while our Ate Nilda prepared molo soup, spaghetti, hotdog on stick and fruit medley. My Ninang pitched in and made some leche flan while I made peach & mango ref cake and some canapes (with egg salad) which was a HIT (thanks Anne for the tip!). Our birthday cake was from Red Ribbon (best buy!) while the rest of the food (pancit bam-i, fresh lumpia, chicken lollipops, herb-crusted fish fillet) were ordered from ever dependable Conti's. Pictures here: We had some goody bags and party hats for the guests too. The party started at 12 noon with a short prayer and a cheerful happy birthday song for Zoe: Then it was chowtime right ...
