Some recent pictures and video clip of Arthur

15 May 2009

Today is Arthur's 2nd birthday and he has his 2nd cake for his birthday with his school friends and teachers.

Arthur's 2nd Birthday

We celebrated Arthur's 2nd birthday on 9 May 2009, invited 30+ guests to a tea party which we only arranged 3 days ago. It was considered a successful tea party despite the rush arrangement and some hiccups we had in pumping the ballons for the guests' kids.

Sing birthday song, make a wish and "bye bye candles"

Final photo shoot with the cake before we "destroy" it.

Arthur and his birthday presents

First Artwork

Grandma showed me this hand print artwork the moment I stepped into the house from work yesterday evening. The teacher passed this "master piece" to Grandma when she picked up Arthur from nursery.

This will be the most memorable and precious artwork as it is Arthur's first artwork :)

Say My Name

17 February 2009 is a special day, at the age of 21month, Arthur finally said his name for the first time. We have been telling him his name for months and out of the blue, he said his name on the way to nursery. Since then, when we ask :"What is your name", he will answer"Arthur".

The day before he said his name, he said "Phlea" for the first time, he wanted to say "Please" but omitted the "s". Today, he managed to say "Please" properly.

I cannot describe my feeling when I first heard Arthur said his name, I was not only very excited but proud of my boy :)

KK Trip

Time sure flies! Anita and Douglas went back to Auckland today after their 3-weeks break from work. Arthur was quite upset when he saw them walking further and further away from him. Luckily 外公 was there to comfort him, otherwise it is going to be a long fuss.

We have a good time with Anita and Douglas around and Arthur loves the company of his Aunt Anita and uncle Douglas. The next time we meet, it will be this coming October in Auckland for Anita and Douglas' wedding :)

Short Trip to HK

I have never travelled alone with Arthur before and I was worried before our trip to HK as I didn't know whether I could handle Arthur plus the luggages all by myself. Luckily it ended up better than I imagined :)

We really enjoyed our short trip to HK and Arthur was happy to see his baba and grandparents.
