.. and My Prince Turns 5!***

Yes.. my son has turned 5!! To prove it, he did his homework without being asked to! He says, he's a big boy already!

23rd April 2004. I was 10 days over my due date and I wasn't feeling any pain at all. The doctor asked me to come in to get induced - to get the contractions coming.. as well as the baby. The doctor told me if this doesn't work, then we'll opt for C-section. So I was induced around 11am and was waddling all over the ward and my water finally broke around 7pm.

Around 7.30pm, the contractions started coming in waves.. by 7.50pm I told my husband I was ready.. but nooooo.. nobody listened to me. They said, I won't dilate that fast.. so I pleaded for the nurses to check my dilation.. and hey ho!! I was ready!! Skip the gory details and by 8.10pm, my beautiful son, Zachrey Aizran Sham, was born. And I couldn't be happier!!

23rd April 2009. Buddy (our nickname for him) turned 5 and we celebrated it with a mini party at his kindie during lunch time. Boy, time passes by so quickly!!!

So anyways, here are some pics from the night before his birthday leading up to his birthday!

I had to prepare party packs for approx. 30 children.. each party pack consists of 2 Crispy chocs, 1 Sachet of Lexus veggie biscuits, 1 Muruku packet, 1 Jelly, 1 Lolly, 1 balloon and 1 kazoo (that's what Buddy calls it).

All the 30 party packs!

Buddy with his new golf club!! [THANK YOU RAFIQ!!]

FYI, Buddy has been into golf ever since he was old enough to grab onto things. My eldest brother plays some golf and he tries to instill that passion and it really caught on. He's been asking for a golf club for ages and now, he finally gets his wish! It was such a great surprise!

So that's it for now.. I've got some more pictures and I hope to share it with you guys soon.. part 2 maybe??
