K turned 2 this year... a lot has happened. He is also a big brother to I who just turned 5 months the other day. Lotsa kids now in the family. It used to be just P, now there's 3 more! We were also lucky enough to meet E, B's 1st born. What a lovely boy he is. I hope we get to see him more often, that way the cousin's know each other a tad bit more. The party was a blast. Food was nice, especially tailored for the cold weather we are having. N did a great job on the cake, I was also informed the E had a hand on making it. It's nice to catch up family and friends.

He feed himself some prawn crisps, much to his delight. We then headed to Indooroopilly Shopping Centre to window shop. Pretty much laid back. The boys let me have a look around while they waited for me. The best part? We were all together... out and about.

The lead up to the event was a bit stressful, but I have been lucky to have help around when needed. In Filipino tradition, when one has a baptism it becomes a "HUGE" affair. From the picking of godparents, which comprises of at least 3 couples. The reception that follows is another ball game. You could say that the whole town is invited, apart from a truck load of relatives. It's sorta like getting married all over again! I mean, it's a well known fact that Filipino's love to have parties, and they go "all out". From the different viands on serve (roughly at least 3), multitude of sweets and the all too familiar lechon (roast pig). I love lechon, but they do cost an ...313 days ago
