Gabby's First Birthday Celeb at Home :)



Her Supposedly birthday tarpaulin. Unfortunately, they printed it in a Strawberry Shortcake Theme which is not accepted in her Jollibee Party, so I had this changed.



Gab Gab, Gab Gab, isang taon ka na!

We are singing this chant morning of September 11, 2012. Finally, my little girl turned 1! There are many things and reasons why they say that the first birthday is really something special and needs a celebration. First is that she finally overcame her vulnerability. She was now a not so little girl and can now move and do some things on her own, compared on her state a year ago. Tatay and Nanay (we preferred to be called this way) were also very happy on her loud jabbers, babbles, dadada’s, nyanyanya and all those very wet kisses on my cheeks but makes me the happiest Nanay in the world. And of course, this is a celebration of my first year of motherhood! Yey! All those sleepness nights were really worth it. J

We had a separate “salo salo” in our house to celebrate this special day. Her birthday falls on a Tuesday, making most of my friends and her ninong and ninangs busy on their work. And of course, Jollibee Party was really for kids, o we had this for our very close “kapitbahay” so that we could also share our blessings with them as well.

We prepared packed miryenda for kids. Here's the Menu:

For Kids (packed in a styro container 50 pcs)

Since most of the kids were also invited in her Jollibee party, we just managed to give them small amounts of miryenda. They also had classes on this day so very few kids were able to make it in our house.

·         Spaghetti

·         3 pcs of lumpia

·         3 pieces of candies

For Adults:

·         Chopsuey

·         Menudo

·         Lechon (courtesy of my dad, her lolo. Thanks Pa!)

·         Lumpia

·         Vegetable Salad

·         Shrimp

·         Palabok and Spaghetti

·         Kutsinta (courtesy of one of her Lolas)

She has so many sponsors during this house party/thanksgiving, but of course we cannot use this in her Jollibee party, so we just accepted them all.

We had so much fun because we were able to share our blessings with so many people. J Happy Birthday Gabby!
