Gung Hay Fat Choy

Chinese New Year starts tomorrow but we chose to celebrate early for 2 reasons. The first, it is already tomorrow in China and more importantly, it's Rosie's birthday tomorrow.

Since we always have our park playdates on a Wednesday I just decided to turn it in to a CNY party here at the house. We bought some fortune cookies and then dipped them in melted chocolate and covered them in sprinkles. All the kids have enough to take to school with them tomorrow to share with their friends. They had lots of fun doing it and they got might chocolatey!

Getting started

Yum...chocolate


Goo Goo bought these outfits back from Macau last month. I love the edging on them it makes them stand out.
Goo Goo and Father Joe came over to wish Rosie a Happy Birthday for tomorrow and they gave her a musical card, she loved it.
I have such a bad migraine tonight, again, that I am ending this post here and will add to it tomorrow

(yeesh I didn't even manage to put a period at the end of the last sentence, I needed to get to bed fast)
I saw this idea on another blog, not sure which and new immediately we had to do it. On that blog the fortune cookies were all perfect and the photos were amazing. Not so much on this blog, the kids did everything themselves and we ended up with chocolate and sprinkles everywhere.

Rosie ended up at the pediatrician today. She woke in the night with a fever and she only just had one that lasted for 4 days. We ummed and ahhed about taking her, good thing we did she has an ear infection and is on antibiotics for the first time ever. As you can see by the photos she doesn't feel ear pain apparently.
