Jed's Full Moon Party 满月 🌕

So it's supposed to be tradition to celebrate the baby's first month. We had a 满月 (Man Yue a.k.a. Full Moon) party for him at home. We didn't have one for Shane when he was a month old because we just moved to Philadelphia and had no friends. Since we are now in New Jersey, and we have some Singaporean Kakis that we hang out with, I thought it might be nice to throw a mini party.

We invited the Liwosos, the Humberts, Lee Teng & kids, Lynette & Family and our next door American New Yorker neighbour who loves different culture and traditions. Mum cooked a whole variety of food from sticky rice to curry chicken to Sardine sandwiches which we had not eaten since we were kids. I made a tray of red eggs (that I guess symbolised prosperity). We also sort of put some decoration up with the photos that Kalai took for us a few weeks back.

Jed slept throughout the party. But I'm sure one day, he will see what he missed out on (probably not that much... lol)
