Lincoln's big P-ONE!

Concurring a major milestone

Seeing how my eldest boy, Lincoln has grown and the challenges he has overcome in the past 7 years, I can't help but... heave a sigh of relief, relief for him, for me and my hubby. From a scrawny little boy with eating problems to a stocky one with a chatty syndrome. I wonder which is worse.

Lincoln's 7th birthday celebration

This sweet boy is the most affectionate boy in the family. And he has also grown more expressive over the past 1 year! My hubby's genes definitely contributed to the affectionate traits. ;-)

Lincoln had been asking how we were going to celebrate his birthday from the day we celebrated his little bro's in April (Lincoln's birthday is in June). Therefore, in order not to short-change him and since it is his first year in primary school, we decided to plan a week-long birthday celebration for him. The celebration was kicked off at his primary school, to our extended families and finally ending it off within our humble family. Every picture of him captured his smiles and glee, including his sweet little bro Rayen who seemed to be following him everywhere he goes. :-)

The supporting actors...

Rather than mere supporting actors, birthday cakes can be touted as a key supporting actor at every birthday celebration. Hence we specially ordered customized cakes for Lincoln for all the celebrations. The Disney Cars cupcakes we ordered from Berrycot Cakes were a big hit among Lincoln's classmates - every snapshot captured them ogling at the Cars figurines on the cakes, LOL!

The yummy and simply mouth-watering buttercream cakes from MyFatLady Cakes were simply decadent too! 2 separate cakes were ordered from them - Earl Grey sponge with Salted Caramel buttercream filling and Rainbow sponge with Salted Caramel buttercream filling. Among the 2, the hot favourite was the Earl Grey flavoured cake - it was unique and awe-so-tasty with the earl grey and lightly salted caramel combo! Kudos to Edna and team for their effort and creativity. :-)

Of course, credits also go to Lincoln's beloved members of the family and his primary school class - Mrs Mohd (his form teacher), besties - Daniel/Jayden/Elliot, Grandpa and Grandma, A. Elaine and U. Govin, A. Fiona, Grand Ah-Mm and Grand A. Lucy, best cousins Dinesh and Sonia, Ah-Ma and Ah-Gong, Lil' Leonard, Ah-Gu Clarence and Ah-Gim Sharon, and those who were not there but have extended their well-wishes - U. Ronald and A. Bee Lay and Family, Grand A. Nellie and A. Sherrie.

Lincoln loves you all for the pressies and well-wishes!!!
