Grandpa's Birthday Weekend Celebration!!


This weekend we gone to this vacation home to celebrate Kawai's grandpa's birthday. Huili's brother Ming Fai works for a company that own this property for its workers and it was very nice. We had a great time being at the house and more at this park near by. In this picture is Jan (kawai's little cousin) and her parents Ming Fai and wife Pei Shi.


Fun and games



relax :-) One of the cool things is relatives taking turns caring for Kawai

Enjoying as a Family



Every Holiday, home of the President of Singapore becomes open to the public to tour


One of the malls, restrooms are important landmarks before you start looking around shops


Huili teach Kawai how to hold and manage food stick. Its amazing how fast it has come already seeing this little guy grow more self dependant


This was soooo cute. This is Kawai's first car ride. Music from this machine was playing and the car moved as he holds on to the wheel. This was fun and worth $2


When Kawai starts to approach his nap time, he gets really funny. He has this excitement spark that would last for 20 min then comes down with what this picture is showing.

He Starts to rest his head on mine for a while then....


He grabs my face like this and go close and kisses me... I can't help but feel like butter when he does this.. what love


The conclusion is this, down.. Sleeping on my shoulder then put into his stroller. It has become a cycle now when time and how he acts.


There was this big concert I got to win the lottery for tickets. Main guest singer is the opera singer Andrea Bocelli. I heard there was over 100,000 filed to win but only 10,000 could be issued, what great luck. Below is a short clip from this event


Our spot. It was great for us






These pictures was taken down Orchards, most popular shopping district











Friends & Family


These are our long time friends. Evonne and her husband Yian Sann. The girl across Huili is Evonne cousin Ling. We had good time eating Singapore chicken rice.

Aunt Evonne with Kawai. Since everyone speak Chinese here, he goes by his Chinese name TianLe (teeanLe) make sure not leee ok! :-) Everywhere we go, people are sooo interested of seeing how Kawai look like, being part Chinese and white. We will try to find a modeling agency to see how he can get into it. People always comment on how often he smiles.

This is Huili's brother Ming Fai. He has a little girl name Jia-en. Very cute cousins. Its fun seeing them being together as they know they are the only ones to be related to. Huili and brother are only children.

This is with Grandma. Jia-en has a good attitude for taking pictures

Everyone having dinner. Grandpa behind Huili

Kawai's adventure to Asia

Prior to leaving, we notice at the airport we forget to bring a single luggage, an important one. So for the past two weeks, I had no computer to access downloads and updates on our blog until now! I can't say how much we appreciate our laptop.

This was Kawai's first plane ride anywhere. I am happy he was a good boy and most importantly thankful for Japan airlines to having open seats :-) Many options to fly to Asia but Japan Air for cost and most important a bassinet was used. Imagine that most airlines (american planes) don't have this!?!?! They want the infant to be on our lap for 8 plus 7 hours! That's crazy. We don't live in third world you know?




We arrived in Japan and stayed over a night. It was nice and resting.

Baby can't wait to end this fun ride and enjoy.. He was kicking with me as I watched Avatar

We are here!! We arrived 5:30pm. I will continue later with our two weeks being here seeing places and being with friends and family. Aloha!

Sunset & Kawai's First Live Concert


This Sunset was taken near our home. It's easy for me to take it for granted being living here for some time. I recall being in the ocean maybe 10 times last year, Crazy.. We only a 2 min drive away..


This concert was great! I always wanted to see a local O'ahu group called 'Natural Vibrations' live and now it came true. It was suppose to be a Band Championship deal with youth battling it out for a chance to compete in O'ahu to get a record label. And at the ending part finally, the band performing. I was so happy to hear this group and so was Kawai. He latched onto my arm and enjoying this Hawaiian/Raggae music.

I can sit up now!

Kawai is now able to 85 % sit up right by himself. He starts to timber when he gets distracted. He is now more a little man with his comprehension with his surroundings.


This is his new play station kid version 1.1. He has a tolerance of a half hour then that's it! out he comes.

Yaaahuuu! I just won the jack pot!!



In this video, we are amazed with his ability to handle the pen. He is trying to have his brain and hand work together and he so cute because his Innocent trying to do it look. The best part of this video is he becomes frustrated with the pen and grabs it in lightning speed.

Kawai and Alamea




KAWAI LOVES TO READ & HANG OUT

One day at work, I was not having a fantastic day. Huili out of nowhere sent me this photo on my phone and I could not get over it from laughing! Kawai is a good baby and seldom crys so when he does or give this sad puppy face, it melts anyone with a heart.

Like I said, he is a happy baby so sad puppy face is gone

Ok, back to normal..

I had too much to drink last night..


Not! Just kidding.. never enough for milk!

Dad, if Grandma Chung know what your eating.. she will give you this face ...

Aaiiyah, that is making you fat! hahahaha!


KAWAI'S 6 MONTH CHECK UP


I took this photo because people who meet Kawai loves to pinch his chubby legs. I don't blame them because I like to bite them :-) and Kawai is ticklish.


Did his weight and measurements

Kawai likes to be in different positions. Today he likes this and its funny how he looks up at me with those angel eyes...


YUP! My Dad got my back!

SITTING UP BY HIMSELF AND EATING ALREADY

Kawai and Alamea resting on the grass talking story.


Kawai enjoying time petting Alamea. Alamea is very loving and protective of Kawai

Alamea is thinking "this is really getting out of hand", but thats ok because I love this kid.

What?!! Like try some too?


Kawai is now on fast track in growing into discovery with everything. Its wild to see him sit up on his own and take in food, he has gained many skills very quickly.

Flash from the past, Wade at 14 months

My mom gave me a bunch of 8mm film of the past and no one in our family has seen any of it for 35 plus years! I used my iPhone to capture parts of it and downloaded it on my computer to see. On this video is me and my mom. I'm just thankful for having this chance to see me at that age in motion and I have more.
