Little Nio Comics Update, January 2009

Rather than put all the latest comic strip installments up in one go, I decided to split the updates up into manageable chunks to help with upload times.



This series of photographs was taken a few weeks ago and it shows our son, Antonio, playing with his toy car. This one is called "Little Nio and the Toy Car". More and more I'm finding that I can insert some subtle environmental messages in these comic strips.



This is actually an older series of photos taken by my wife, Kanittha. Antonio loves eating yogurt and it's usually the first course before he eats a proper breakfast. His expressions here are priceless. This one is "Little Nio and Yogurt".



We took these series of images in August of last year, when we went up country to visit with my wife's family. This comic strip is called, "Little Nio and Football". He really enjoyed running around in the sunshine on the dirt ground with a dilapidated old football.



This one is entitled "Little Nio and the Balloon Flower" and the images here come from an activity day of our village some time last year. They had balloons and painting, snacks and ice cream for all the kids. It was good fun.

Latest Little Nio Comics, January 2009

It's been a while since I've posted any "Little Nio" comics. Here are the latest installments in this series.



This one is entitled "Little Nio and Natural Gas". There's a small swimming pool next to the clubhouse in our little village and our son, Antonio, enjoys the water. This was taken summer last year, when it was nice and warm.



This one is "Little Nio and the Elephant" and was taken in Ayutthaya when my cousins were visiting us. We were feeding the elephants and every time that the elephant took the bananas from our hands Little Nio would clap. He loves animals and is not the least bit afraid of them.



It's very difficult to get Antonio away from computers. I guess he gets that from me. This comic strip is titled, "Little Nio and World Domination". It seemed appropriate given his expressions and the intensity of his concentration. This was done from a series of photographs taken last year.



This is a more recent comic strip, entitled "Little Nio and the Chocolate Cow". Like me, he's got a sweet tooth and a weakness for chocolate ice cream. My wife, Kanittha, captured these images as we were sharing a quick snack on the kitchen floor. It's more practical to eat on a tiled floor when you're eating ice cream with a little boy.

Even More Little Nio Comics, July 2008

Just had to share even more "Little Nio" comics.

These are too fun to put together because Antonio is really a funny little boy. I don't meant that he is awkward or ridiculous, but that he already has a sense of humor and is very naturally playful. His personality shows through even at this young age.



The one above, "Little Nio and the Spare Rib" was taken at this upscale food court in the Mahboonkrong shopping mall, called "The Fifth". We ordered a plate of baby back spare ribs and just let Little Nio feed himself. And as you can see, he has no problems polishing off the bone.



One of the things Little Nio enjoys doing is spending time with me in the study, where all my computer equipment is installed. Here he is drinking out of his froggy mug and making an absolute mess of himself. This one is entitled, "Little Nio's Drinking Problem".



This is an older series of images where we've got Little Nio set up with some of his stuffed toys. It's just too adorable that our son is so cute, he blends in perfectly. This one is called, "Little Nio Explains Camo".



The one above was also created more recently, but the photographs were taken when Little Nio turned one year old. Here he is enjoying his birthday cake, so this one is entitled "Little Nio and the Birthday Cake".

More Little Nio Comics, June 2008

A few more recent comic strips featuring Little Nio.



This first comic strip is entitled "Little Nio Saves the Chicken". I know that it sounds a lot like something a superhero might do, but all he's doing here is saving it for later.



This second comic strip Little Nio Picks a Book, has our son perusing the titles of my reference library. Unfortunately all of the books on the shelves he can reach are all technical manuals, so they are bound to put him to sleep.



This third strip is named "Little Nio Defines Finger Foods" and was taken at a lovely restaurant at Central Chidlom.



This fourth comic strip is the most recent in the series, entitled "Little Nio and the Mummies". We're hoping that Little Nio's natural curiosity develops into a genuine thirst for knowledge and a deep love of learning. Here he is examining some DVD documentaries.

By the way, before I forget, today is my mother's birthday (Little Nio's Lola Nene), so here's a wish of love to her - for good health, much happiness, tons more blessings and lots and lots more birthdays!

Little Nio Comics, April 2008

I just wanted to share with all of you some little comic strips that I have put together featuring our son, Little Nio.



This first strip was taken when he was only three months old, and you can already see that he's a real character. This particular set of images is actually a repost.



This comic strip was put together when Little Nio got his first taste of solid foods. This was when he was about four months old.



This is Little Nio playing at one of my computer workstations. He's really got it all figured out already.



This latest comic strip was made from images taken only last month, just before we moved in to our new home.
