Charmaine's first birthday

In the mere blink of an eye, a year has passed since little Charmaine was born into this world. We had a small birthday party for her to celebrate!

Of course, she hadn't learned the skill of "blowing out the candle" on the cake (at least without rendering the cake inedible with a generous spray of bodily fluids!), so there was some off-camera support crew to help. We'll be training hard so that next year, she will hopefully manage to blow out the candles herself!

She was quite surprised to see so many people around, and even got the chance to meet some new friends her age! No doubt is was a "small" function, between my wife and I, there were quite a number of relatives, so an estimated 50+ pax turned up to wish little Charmaine a happy birthday.

No, we did not dye her hair brown. She's a natural brunette....
