Our Easter Celebration

Yesterday we started celebrating Easter by attending the morning mass. Next to Christmas, Easter mass is the most attended mass in our parish, so the church was really crowded. The parking was full so we just parked along the road. It took a while to walk from our car to the family room so we arrived a little bit late. We were not lucky to get a seat, but good thing my gf's hubby offered his seat to me and little tot, while hb just stood by the door. Little tot was behaved for few minutes and then started to shuttle back and forth from my seat to his dada. He kept excusing himself to the big guy beside me saying "cuse me, cuse me please". Good thing this poor guy was so patient moving his legs away to give way to my little tot. It got warm in the room so some kids got irritated and started whining and crying on the side.

After the mass, we attended my little tot's gf and my goddaughter Kristen's 2nd birthday lunch at Mandarin Buffet. It was a very a decent place with lots of choices in the buffet table. I feasted on sushi and avoided fried dishes. I am serious at taking charge of my health, so I fought the urge to eat too much, lol. Plus it was hard to concentrate on eating when you are also minding an active tot, who was very distracted by the resto's aquarium.

Little tot insisted on using chopsticks. His lap caught more food than his mouth.

The kids posed for a pic with the birthday girl, though she didn't really care ;-)

A happy birthday song for cute little Kristen.

Little tot was fascinated by the fish in the resto's aquarium,
so he couldn't seat still in his chair.
