Twin's full month celebration

It's a Chinese tradition to have a big celebration when a baby turns 1 month old. Due to health concerns, we decided not to have a big party but just a small family gathering at home. As the twins are only 37weeks and we had a namelist of about 80-100 people, we were worried that their little bodies may not be able to handle any germs/bacterias out there. Therefore we'll just skip the full month party and have a bigger 1year old party next year.

Had the usual Red eggs and Ang Ku kueh, and a cake to celebrate. We also had the infamous "Heng hua" noodle - where it is always cooked at any family gathering or major celebrations for this dialect group. Both grandmas, paternal great grandma, Uncle Derrick, Aunty Janice and Aunty Cynthia were there to help celebrate this auspicious day.

I guess not having the party is also a blessing in disguise. I'm super tired and have no energy to plan and organize such an event. Me being the usual me, I always make sure that my parties are extraordinary and special. But I am definitely not in the mood or the mental state to do a good job. So, look out for an invitation next year!!
