Makalot Family Day

On the last day of June, and the first Saturday since Allie returns to work, her company has a Family Day event. It was a combination of sports, games, and a fair of booths held by non-profit organizations. The weather was good. Actually, too good that it must had been over 36 degrees under the sun. And yes, it was compulsive to join. It was nice to get a little suntan, though.

Two Months Old

June 28, my son is now two months old. Although he seems always sleeping in the pictures, he's very energetic when he's awake. He can turn 90 degrees by kicking his feet, and can partially change sides while sleeping by stretching one leg as stood. When he cries, it's so loud that I wish I can put a silencer in his throat.

It's Mango Time!

Mom gave me a lot of mangos, but the weather is so hot that I guess I can't eat them all just as fruit. I looked in my refrigerator for some ideas, and here's the result --Mango Fried Beef. Beef is so match with fruits, yummy!

First Family Photo

Yesterday Eric brought his camera and took a lot of photos of Yoshi. We also had our first family photo since he was born. Thanks, Eric!

Milk Reserves

We want to feed our son breast milk for at least 6 months, as suggested by doctors to reduce the risk of allergies. However, when Allie returns to work, it is possible that she will not be able to milk regularly, and which can cause reduction in the quantity. Therefore, besides milking to feed him, we also keep extra milk in the refrigerator for later use. Shown in the picture are about 25 packs of breast milk, enough for 3 or 4 days only. I guess even if I empty my entire refrigerator, it's only enough to keep a reserve for less than three weeks. Anyone has extra space for me? :)

Good Morning, Taipei

Thanks to my son, I got to see the city in the beginning of the day. It's been unimaginable for me to get up so early two months ago, but now it's becoming my routines. With a new-born at home, sleeping for more than two hours is a wish.

Long Time No See, Home

We finally came home yesterday. Since the emergency in mid April, we've been moving around for nearly months. Our son was very nervous at the home he's never stayed. He had a tough night, crying, kicking, everything but sleeping. As a result, we're all extremely tired. It's your home, so get used to it, son.

Hair Cut

My son had the very first haircut of his life this morning. We got
him the best hair-do for an infant--a shining skin head. He was born
with lots of hair, so we never saw his head so shining. Fortunately,
his new look isn't too funny.

New Start

Yesterday I drove home from Microtek for the last time, left behind
not only a company I worked for 8 years and 8 months, but also a city
I lived for 16 years. Okay, it was not dramatic enough for tears, but
I did get a little sentimental on my way home.
