Happy Birthday, Jihan


yeah, it was Jihan's birthday yesterday...mama was so tired to update it in the blog yesterday...alhamdulillah, the small family and friends gathering yesterday turned out very well...in conjunction with my parents going for umrah this Friday, we held a small prayer as well...


Jihan woke up with a smile and a good mood in the morning...she was so excited playing with her new tricycle ( a birthday gift from atok) and playing with the balloons while waiting for mama and papa to come back from collecting the birthday cake..she was all sweat after playing and running around....at around noon, we had quite a difficult time to get Jihan to bathe as she wanted to play with her 2nd cousins...she threw a tantrum, crying and even vomited! (oo..oooh..such a bad time to do a party because Jihan always had a nap at around noon and she did not have a nap yesterday due to excitement)...


anyway, we managed to calm her down and she managed to put her smile back on her chubby face...


we started off with a little prayer, followed by a cake cutting ceremony by my little princess...she was so excited singing "hepi bedey ta yu" and loved blowing the candles...i bought her a mickey and minnie cake and she just adored it so much...


Jihan was so happy being surrounded by her 2nd cousins and played around with them (especially after opening the presents...before that she only clung to her papa)...despite being sleepy, she forced herself to stay awake until the last guests left home at about 4 o'clock...then, she played with all the toys that she got as birthday presents...


we took her for a ride in the car, then she fall asleep...zzzzzz until 8 o'clock....everybody was tired but feeling satisfied and happy with a successful gathering....


thank you all for coming....more photos and stories at our fotopages...http://ezzuramd.fotopages.com
