Today we caught up with LJ for a MamaBake session. Normally we are 4 - 6 mums for these cook-ups, but this time only the 2 of us could make it. The boys had a ball, Yannick slept almost all of the afternoon. And the only pic I have of Yannick is this one with you in the background!

Oh I actually just remembered there is another photo I took of my little darling...

I have been taking photos of my 2 boys asleep in the back of the car since forever ;-) Just iphone quality though...

High into the sky and a very sleepy boy

Higher and higher and higher :-))

Exhausted and fallen asleep in the car again. I think you are going through a growth spurt, you just fall asleep so quickly at the moment.

Technology and exhaustion

43/366

 A lot of concentration went into putting the vacuum cleaner back together this afternoon.

concentration and cool moves

Some more playing with water on the back deck this afternoon.

Daddy was listening to some very cool tunes tonight. I think it was some drum'n'base and Timmy started doing some very cool moves. I was really impressed with your dancing and we captured some of it on video as well ;-)

Yannick was just giggling in the back of the car and I had to stop to take a picture ;-)

Ramen and funny sleeping position


We decided to go for out for lunch today and Japanese it was. Yannick was doing really well with the chopsticks and although he didn't have too much of an appetite, he ate a few of the Ramen noodles.

Timmy was at the Childcare Center today and it looks like it was a big day! You fell asleep in this funny position, while I was putting Yannick to bed :-)

A very long day...

Perfect weather this afternoon for some water play

Our neighbours gave us this super fast race track a while ago and you are definitely old enough to play with this now. Once we had worked out the perfect angle there was no stopping you :-)

Today we had a really good day, but when I started cooking dinner Yannick was just an unhappy little chap. Nothing seemed to make things better and my last resort was to take out the old sling, we hadn't used for a long time. I put you in there and straight away you calmed and after 5 mins, a bit of dancing and patting you were asleep. I am so thankful for one of the best baby accessories ever! 

After dinner I was able to put you to bed, but you woke again around 10pm and nothing helped to calm you. Well we ended up at the emergency department at 2am in the morning after I found a strange rash on your belly! This is one of those situations you fear as a parent. Not knowing what's wrong with your baby, you just feel so helpless. When we got to the hospital you started to perk up and ended up playing for the full 2.5 hours that we were waiting to see the doctor. The diagnosis was an ear infection and sore throat, probably viral, which also caused the rash.  

Again I am very thankful that we are still breastfeeding and this was the only food you were really interested in for the next few days.

at the shops and another big storm

Caught this moment at the shops today, when you discovered yourself in the mirror above the vegetable shelves.

It started getting really dark all of a sudden and when we went outside the sky was full of dark grey clouds. It looked pretty scary and like another big storm was on it's way.

Today was the first day back at Playgroup. You were so excited and looking forward to going there after a long 2 month break. So many activities and things to do. The 2 hours always fly!

Lunar New Year Celebration

36/366

Today we were invited along to the Taiwanese Lunar New Year Festival. It was a big affair, much bigger and more formal than I expected. They even gave the boys VIP name tags, which Timmy proudly wore ;-) The ladies at the reception were doting on the boys and filled their plates with lots of food. I was very proud that you sat quietly on the sofa for quite a while.

We then headed over to the big hall where we saw lots of presentations, dance and music.

new shoes

New shoes ! You didn't want to take them off anymore! You even wanted to wear them to bed. At the end I was able to convince you that it was a better idea to take them off and that you would be able to wear them again in the morning and not take them off all day ;-)

Oh little helpers in the kitchen are such a great help ;-)

I can't believe how much you have grown in the last couple months and all of a sudden you are able to reach the top of the kitchen bench!
