Jules' cousins - Sophie and Sean - were born exactly 1 week apart. So you can imagine, with my sister now back, the month of August is like birthday parties galore!! Just over the National Day long weekend, Jules went to 3 birthday parties!! That must have been a record! And the result of that is a full-blown cough and a fever that doesn't seem to go away (but that's not the point of this post).
So my little niece and nephew turned 4 this year!! (well technically, Sean doesn't till tomorrow) And their parents did what most 4 year old parents would do - throw them a party with all the crazy ideas and crafts, they never in their TKGS days thought they'll ever find themselves doing or scrambling to complete at 1am in the morning. They must have been all "If my daughter wants Truffula trees on her cake, I just have to make sure Truffula trees appear on the cake". "If my son wants a Robots theme, I better put together all that I learnt about Reuse & Recycle in school and create that Robot Centerpiece for his party"! And as with all the parties they throw, my sis and sis-in-law did a fabulous job!! The good thing about having a younger kid - I can steal all these crazy party ideas when it's Jules' turn to turn 4! Haha!
Jules was a little overwhelmed at Sophie's party having just woken up from her nap but at least she managed to have a go at the rainbow pinata, even if it was only after all the candies rained down.

We were also very late for Sean's pool side bash so she pretty much missed out on all the fun musical chair and pass-the-parcel games. Plus it was the start of her flu so she wasn't in her usual cheery mood.

But the birthday kiddos had fun and I guess that's all that matters!
Happy birthday Sophie & Sean!!! Here's to more colorful birthday bashes and lots of candies and rainbows to fill your 4th year!! Till your 5th birthday!!
