I'll be a month out from our DD so no dressing up LO yet. Though I do remember my IL's dressed up our first nephew for CNY before and it was so cute! We'll be at their place for a party &amp; give the nephews lai see. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lunar-new-year#post-480480 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 11:22:47 +0000 regberadaisy 480480@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: we don't go back every year! Only every other. Then we plan a big feast with our good friends (wife is Asian) and invite my ILs to share in the festivities. Do you have Asian markets near you? You can still put up new year decorations. :)</p> <p>I think I'm going to bring some into M's class and maybe a $2 lai see for each kid?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lunar-new-year#post-474874 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 10:16:03 +0000 Alivoo01 474874@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm preggo so can't really dress up the LO yet, but I love your idea and think that's uber cute!</p> <p>My family normally does a HUGE dinner with all friends and family at my Aunt's restaurant so we'll be attending it. Hopefully we'll know the gender by then and can reveal it at the party! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lunar-new-year#post-474773 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 09:26:22 +0000 lavender 474773@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just have a family dinner planned. Love the idea of the outfit! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lunar-new-year#post-474391 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 21:24:11 +0000 autumnlove 474391@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks for posting the date! :-) We won't be spending it with my parents...so sad! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lunar-new-year#post-474365 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 21:05:05 +0000 rawrasaur 474365@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are spending it with my husbands family, but I doubt we will do anything but eat at their house. At 2 months, she will be too young to go to any of the usual places that we typically go to - none of which are very exciting. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lunar-new-year#post-474291 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 20:22:50 +0000 regberadaisy 474291@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Now that western new year is out of the way I'm looking forward to M's first Lunar New Year! Which is on Feb 10 this year.<br /> To the Asian mamas (or those married to a Asian!) will you be celebrating Lunar New Year with the LOs? What will you be doing? Will they wear a traditional outfit?</p> <p>We're going to be heading home to NYC to spend it with my family. I can't wait! My SIL got her a traditional outfit when she was in HK last year. I want to get her cute little red satin brocade shoes and a small purse for all the lai see!</p> <p>We'll probably go to Chinatown to see the parade and visit some relatives. And of course the big NY Eve's feast!</p> <p>I'm also going to buy her the "my first Chinese New Year" book! </p>
