Back Home, January 2009

After all the excitement of traveling to Manila for a visit, and the stress of studying for the exam... and the relief from passing it... and then getting sick, then getting better and then sick again... it's slowly starting to feel like we're back home in Bangkok.



Here's Little Nio back in front of the computer again, visiting one of his favorite websites. He really enjoys spending time in front of the computer and browsing the internet for interesting things.





On the floor of our kitchen, enjoying some chocolate ice cream with his Daddy. Little Nio sometimes makes a big mess when he eats, so why take chances? It's also easier to mop up a tiled floor then worry about some fancy carpets. Not that we have anything fancier than a few fluffy door mats.



This is the same series of images that my wife, Kanittha, took for the comic strip on the chocolate cows.





When we were visiting in Manila for Christmas, one of the many many gifts he received from Lolo Jun was a little toy car. He really liked that toy car, which came in a box labeled "Unborn Flyer" — a very creepy name for a toy car. I suspect this is one of those peculiar transliterations from the Chinese language. Unfortunately, we were unable to bring it back with us because of all the other stuff we had. When we got back, we bought him something very similar.





Here he is enjoying the replacement little toy car. He probably won't remember that this red car isn't the same one as that "Unborn Flyer" that his Lolo Jun gave him when we visited.
