"The Devil Eats Prata"

HW is such a darling - she invited us to join her at the Fly Entertainment's 10th year anniversary bash. The theme of the event was "Devil eats Prata" - they had a local reenactment of the hollywood movie. Hilarious and good fun throughout - held at the newly opened Klapsons Hotel. (pix taken with jin's 2mb iphone camera :p)

you know it's gonna be a good night when you get to pose with handsome Allan :)

No evening would be complete without Prata for dessert ya :)

Bean finally meets some giraffes

NOT only did she get to see them, she got to feed them!!

We joined as Friends of the Zoo so now we can visit the zoo anytime without paying high entrance fees per visit and parking :) Bean also got to see the polar bears, deers, rhinos, ah mengs and some parrots. Me thinks she had a lot of fun!

Taking a break with daddy and eating McD hotcakes for breakfast

Checking out the pink flamingos

Very tired - need a short rest..

and..off she goes again..our little energiser bean

A good laugh with friends and charades

WH invited us for a wine and cheese party at her new home. We were stuffed with otah bruschettas, pasta, tempura okra, bacon-asparagus wraps and lots of cheese and wine of course. After dinner, it was a game of movie charades, boys vs girls. The guys won but seriously, who can act or guess "the road to ithaca"? good grief! :)

B = bus, bird, ball, bike and Birthday

Jin turned another year younger last saturday..we started off the day with brunch at Spruce. Love the ambience but service was horrible. One wait staff serving 8 tables - our orders were taken after nearly 20 minutes, coffee was served a good 15 minutes later. Halfway through, there was a power outage and we had to wait for our bill. The food was so-so, maybe marred by the long wait times.



Sophie was recovering from Roseola so with her face in red patches, we decided to cancel dinner plans for Jin. Instead, we did the cake cutting (got a durian cake for jin!) on sunday. Look at the happy faces :)


The last part of the bday celebrations was a one night stay at Ritz Carlton. Love love love the hotel.

oh, bean has been saying lots of words - ball, bird, bus, bike..all Bs :)

Here's Dylan!

First pix of baby Dylan Kwan Wing Yan. Lyn forgot to email his stats but looks like a long chubby baby :)

Back to Bangkok - raya weekend break

Jin's gone off for his massage and bean's knocked off in her hotel crib. We are staying at the Furama Asok. Location's not bad as it's like a 7 minutes walk to the asok bts and they serve a full breakfast. It's also near our 2 fav local noodle shops at soi 20 and 26.

Bean has been an awesome baby/toddler,..she smiles at everyone and does funny things to make us laugh. she does get grumpy cos she hates being confined into her stroller..but once we let her loose - she runs off giggling and squealing with happiness. One thing we noticed about most Thai makan places is that there are no baby chairs readily available. So bean gets to sit on the adult chairs and every 2 minutes, listen to her parents say "sit still, do not get up"..and amazingly, she listens! hurray!!


I just had a quick chat with G on messenger. Seems lyn is in labour! how exciting to that I am going to be an auntie 2nd time round..I cant wait to see how dylan looks like....20.09.2009, what a date!!

Smiling bean at 14 months

We took bean for her jab last week and she's now 10.7kgs (90 percentile) , 76cm in height (60 percentile). Our little toddler bean is growing well :)

She still loves eating..I say "still" cos i have heard that once they start conversing, they get really picky on food. Our saturday mornings are usually spent in a cafe enjoying a breakfast of pancakes and bread.

Soph is def more communicative..she can say : ball, bird, book, shoes, wait (i am always telling her to wait for her milk to warm up), pink, nai nai..I love how she does her "good":)

this is what she shows when we ask her how old is she or is the food good? :)

snack time at Julia Gabriels

Besides the eyes closed smiles, we have one cheeky bean on hand :)
