Baby's First Year Big Day woes!

Baby is 8 months old! Which means in 4 month's time, he'll be celebrating his One year old birthday! Oh no! How do we celebrate it? Where should we celebrate it?

I'm thinking doing the following stuff for his Big Day:
  • Show baby's Photo Album - Documenting baby's growing up journey from birth. Thinking of using Snapfish.
  • Baby and Family photography package - We can take this when he's 11 month old and then display it during the party. A friend uses StudioPlay and the result is marvelous. Hopefully we can get a good deal of similar package at a baby fair. Speaking of baby fair, I'm going to update ongoing baby fairs at Expo here! I'm also going to get family T shirt customized for the photo shoot. My friend recommended Pixiethreads.
  • Birthday party venue - Thinking of using a relative's condominium function room. Still sourcing for good venues.
  • Games and toys - thinking of renting or bringing along some toys for baby to play while the adults are enjoying the food.
  • Decorations - thinking of a decoration theme for baby. Maybe monkeys? We kind of like monkeys. Haha. And we'll have a nice display banner with baby's name and possibly picture.
  • Buffet - We'll need this if we invite all our relatives and some of our friends. If its a close-family-only small celebration, we'll only need cake.
  • Beautiful First year cake for baby - Mummies on forum suggest Pine Garden... will look around for good cakes.
  • Choosing items that gives us a glimpse into his future - I don't know whether you have heard of this 抓周.  One year old is the time when baby is asked to select an item from among many items spread in front of him and the item he selects will give us an idea what he will be when he grows up. I'm not sure of the accuracy of this but it'll be fun!
So many stuff to think of and to prepare!
