Snotty, but happy

Little fella is a bit happier, but is still a bit clogged up. He woke up fairly early this morning (around 6:30am), quite possibly thanks to the downstream effects of last night's lentil dinner (it happens to the best of us). Not really much else to add, other than he seems to be fixated with the cabinet that houses the very expensive glassware. A love for shiny expensive things? He is his mother's child, I guess...

Prowling the lounge for expensive things to eat

Toast. There is toast on your lip, little man... oh, never mind.

Hugging his favourite bath toy - an empty shampoo bottle.

Weekend photos

We jumped on the Star Ferry with the Binningtons yesterday, and although Bunky was feeling a little under the weather (and still is), we had a great time and he even managed a 90 minute snooze while we lunched at Mark and Emma's. Last night was Diwali night, and our building had its usual Indian buffet and drinks downstairs - delicious.  Not a late night, but oooomph I was full by the time we left. Today has been a quiet one, as Bunky is still pretty clogged up and grumpy.  Hopefully he'll be over it in a few days.

Anyway, a few photos from the weekend so far:

.

The boys spending the afternoon in the stereo cabinet (it provides valuable warmth to their butts). The little NEC modem is what beams low quality, overly censored, five year old substandard television programmes chock full of ridiculous advertisements straight to our television.  Ah, technology.

This morning, just before I woke him from his post-breakfast nap

Enjoying his delicious nectarine

He's either concentrating on complicated maths problems, or filling his nappy. You guess which.

Random morning photos

Hamming it up for the camera

Showing perhaps a little too much interest in Ben...

A message for Aunty Momo

It's a bit blurry, but... .

And if you think it was easy getting him to hold the (apparently delicious) sign like that, you're deluded:

The new squishface (and other photos)

George has a new face - the squishface. Usually pulled out when anticipating something awesome (read: "food"), but sometimes pulled out when he's excited about nothing in particular: .

And a few other random photos from today:

Trying out his new car seat and not very happy about it. Seriously, what a little drama queen.

On mummy's shoulders

I couldn't resist. Hong Kong parking at its finest in the IFC2 carpark this morning. If you think this is bad parking, you should see some of the driving...

Swinnnnnnnnnnnnnng

There's a little playground just down the road from us in another apartment building complex.  It's outdoor, and no one seems to mind that kids from all over the neighbourhood come and play there. It's nothing fancy - a few plastic slides, a few swings, and some a nice rubber surface to run around on - so we took Bunky down there on Saturday morning and gave him another crack on the swings.  He clearly seems to quite enjoy himself on them:

Rubber ducky, you're the one...

He's finally got some little yellow bathtime friends (well, he's finally got some that actually float): .

And here's a slightly goofy one of his lordship on the way to the bath:

Random Bunkyisms

Just a few Bunky shots from this morning. As well as letting him play with empty cardboard tubes, we also let him play with toilet paper.  I know what you're thinking - we spoil him.

Pokfulam Market Day

We took the little man down to the monthly market, where he got to sit in the sun and hang with his mate Sam.  Photos below are of Bunky and a few friends who were also there:

If there are no more updates after today, let it be known that I have been murdered by an angry spouse...
