Ace's 10th Birthday!

When I attended a workshop, I was told that 9 years old is the most difficult time of a child's life. However, I noticed that 10 years old is equally difficult... most of my friends, when their kids reach around 10 years old.. they will go into this EMO stage where they will perpetually give a black face and look like the whole world owed them a living... And Max said he got into big trouble in school when he was 10 too... (Pri 4 see Pri 7 bully his friend very buay song and go and beat him up)

Good news is, by 11 years old, they will sort themselves out!:)

Anyway, I am glad he passed through 9 years old peacefully and happily...

About a month before his birthday, Ace was already very excited. He had a long list of presents that he wanted people to buy him... they included lego, kedama, nerf guns and even a butterfly comb... It is like a butterfly knife.. but the blade is replaced with a comb.... He everyday go school tell his friends he is going to invite them to a party... hahahaha...

His 10 years birthday was like carnival that started with his dad saying that he will buy him a present.. the chosen present was a RC drone..

Alas, this RC drone very laoya pok.. always fly a little bit and then battery flat and cannot fly anymore... So we had to go back and refund. The money, we put in a fund and he got to choose to buy a series of things.

 Then he had a birthday treat from his Godma Karen at his favorite Swensons!:)

 He ordered the kids mal cos it came with this flower pot ice cream tat has ice cream, some milo as soil and even a gummy worm:)

Then godma say he can go kiddypalace to choose his present. He chose a nerf gun and afterward.. cos his godsister wanted to watch the PeppaPig video whic was very high, he helped carry her up.. But poor Ace lasted only 10 seconds and had to put her down.. being gor gor is hard work man!:) haahahahaha...

Ace says he chose this nerf gun because it can do THIS...

He thinks this is cool.... As for me, erm.. sorry, I dunno why  tat is cool lah but I respect he things anything you can flick around now like this sort of gun or the butterfly comb is COOL... His mother me is not COOL.. is HOT:) hahahahaha...

Anyway, since the charity run, he has been looking out for a rubberband gun.... He found one in VAT19.com but it will cost way too much to ship it here. I found out that there is a shop in Singapore that actually sells these sort of rubberband gun and so.. the other day, after we picked him up from his JPD meeting, we told him we had to go to buy shoes for Daddy as daddy is going for a run..

In the end, we brought him to that toy shop and he was sooooooooooooooooooooo happy!:)

 Using the refund from the drone, he bought this rubberband gun..

 And a limited edition star wars Tech Deck...

The downside of this is that now my house has alot of loose rubberbands lying around lor... shoot that time very happy but always never take note to pick it up :(

Then leh, he also had a celebration in Popo's house.. Popo bought him a strawberry strudle in place of a birthday cake to celebrate..

And then he celebrated one more time with a party with his friends and our friends...

 Helped him design the invite to send out to his friends:)

 I told him I going to wear this for his party and he says NO.. hahahaah

 Actually bought this for his godsister lah:)

 He managed to invite a few friends and he asked them to bring along nerf guns to play.. in the tennis court..

 Godmpa and godsis bz wrapping corn:)

 And the other kids just run around and play with guns together. Dun ask me how the 4, 5 and 10 year olds play together. I also dunno:) ahahaha

 And it is cake cutting time.. Ace asked for ice cream cake but the cake so hard.. very difficult to cut:)

Was a happy night lah. Ace got a new kendama, a new nerf gun and a new bag from his friends. Godma Annie also joined the party and gave Ace a big red packet:)

And then leh, day after his birthday got more celebration lor:)

As one of his good friends, Jon Jon also celebrating birthday, we had a gathering and even had cake:) Ace had fun playing with the very cute and accomodating C. He enjoyed playing with her cos she followed all his instructions.. her mum later told me she doesnt really listen to anyone;) wahahahah...

Anyway, both Daddy and Ace had a taste of what it MIGHT be like to have another girl in the family:) Cos they had so much fun together!

 And it hasnt even ended!:)

hahahaha...

After that, Daddy brought us to this place to catch fish but as the fish thingy is not opened till 5pm... we hang around and decided to go and have a drink in this place called Ah Dong Teh House... and Ace says they are giving free ice kachang as long as you show your IC or identification card to show tat your birthday is within 3 days...

We thought it will be just a small ice kachang but we were so wrong! It is a mega one where you can decorate your own! Ace says it is EPIC and best ever and started listing everyone's birthday cos he wants to come back again!:) hahahaha..

 Cos they gave us such a big ice kachang.. promote them a little.. hahaha..

 Ace was so excited to see that the kacang is soooooooooooooooo BIG!

 Inside is got liao one lor.. we found so many atap chee too!:)

 Just to give you idea of how big the kacang is.. i pose with my palm..

We also did a video of Ace's masterpiece..



All in all, I think he had a great celebration lah..

Happy birthday Ace!

Seemed like yday when I gave birth to him lor!:)

Happy birthday, Ace! Congrats on passing through one of the most difficult years in your childhood!;) I still can't believe that you are already 10! Despite my complains that you are always making us nag 10000000 x before you do what we ask you to, you have been a wonderful, loving kid! Thank you for all you have done for the family and all the love you have shown to everyone. Thank you for coming into our lives and bringing so much joy... And remember, mummy and daddy will love you forever no matter what:)
