Pauleen Luna and Vic Sotto's first born Talitha Maria just turned five!
On November 7, Pauleen shared photos of her daughter Tali's birthday held in their home on November 6.
Pauleen initially told PEP.ph that they will only have a small unicorn-themed celebration in their backyard, just as how Tali wished for.

Vic Sotto, Pauleen Luna celebrate 11th year together
Today, November 7, Pauleen and Vic celebrated their 11th anniversary.
Pauleen shared an Instagram reel to mark the occasion and wrote a short but heartwarming caption. "11 years. Glad we followed our hearts."
She explained that she used the background music, "Baby, I Love Your Way," for the video because Vic sang it for her, 'and it's stuck like glue.'
She added, "I love you babe, @mzet280. You and Tali are my biggest blessings! Happy anniversary!"
Pauleen said in a recent vlog with Camille Prats that she enjoys being a wife to the veteran comedian and TV host.
“He’s very different in the house. Normal, super normal. Hindi mo siya makikita as Vic Sotto, the person that you see on TV, the person that you see on billboard. Sobrang iba. We’re a very normal couple," she said.
Tips for planning your child's 5th birthday
According to a previous Smart Parenting article, children at the age of five are expected to be more creative, playful, and more talkative. They also love to engage in active play, probably the reason why Tali enjoyed her intimate party with her close friends even at home.
1. Ask what theme they like.
Since they are showing more independence, you can already ask for their inputs like what flavor of cake they like, or what colors of balloons they want to have.

2. Invite your child's close friends and relatives.
At this age, they like to tell stories and might be more comfortable talking to a handful of people they know than a big crowd, so a small party with a few guests would be okay.
3. Consider holding the party at home.
Birthday parties don't have to be expensive, and renting a venue is not cheap. If you can have your child's party at home or in a nearby clubhouse or open area, then do so. Plus, you don't have to worry about extending hours. Have some games and food, and you're all set.
