happy birthday =)

the two Ds didn't have a proper birthday this year, what with their birthdays falling in the midst of Eid celebrations. we celebrated Dinara's birthday in Alor Setar at my uncle's house. i ordered chocolate cupcakes from Nina and brought them with me up north in replacement of a cake (i realized people aren't big fans of cake, dah la these days kek mahal!). Dayana's birthday pulak fell on the second day of raya.

up to the day of her birthday, she kept asking for a doll, but we didn't get her one. i let her have Jaci instead (and occasionally i steal it away from her for my own snuggles =P). but Daddy did get her something else. the presents were his idea. we haven't bought them a proper birthday cake yet, there always weren't enough people around to sing the birthday song, lol (and summore on the day nak beli ice cream cake, Baskin Robbins buat hal pulak. one outlet didn't carry any cakes that day, another outlet pulak had the cake but didn't have anyone to write their names on the cake, apekah?).

we bought a slice of Pavlova a few days before so we let Dayana blow out a candle on her special day hehe. she didn't like the cake though. she's not a cake person.

she got to blow out the candle anyway =)

so here they are anyway with their birthday presents, a bicycle for Dayana, and an activity ride-on for Dinara. Dayana has yet to learn how to ride a bike, though. she loves ringing the bell. and sometimes she hijacks Dinara's ride because her ride has all the kewl buttons to press. Dinara pun possessive ok. haha.

my kids all grown up. i wasn't the only one with a new ride lol
