Grandma & Granddad come to visit!

We have loved having Grandma and Granddad this past week. Jon was working in Hanoi for most of the time, and we missed him terribly. Emily had a wonderful time in the pool and in the apartment, as well as on some excursions. Grandma has a way of making eating and bathtime actually attractive and fun (yay - the results are continuing!) and Granddad has taught Emily new confidence and joy in the pool. (We have some more great pics if you'd like the link!)

More Grandpa Time

This morning we went for a special brekky with Grandpa. Emily had her milk in the taxi. We got stuck in traffic necessitating much entertainment from Grandpa and Mum!

A few other things we've been up to....

Spending time with our lovely Bangkok friend Rebecca and her adorable baby 'D'. Also enjoying Grandpa's cooking!

Watching Emily say (her version of) "Sawadee ka" with hands doing the 'wai'

Spending time most days in the pool (I walk in the water and Emily mostly tries to run around the perimeter of the pool, giving Grandpa a lot of exercise... she HAS taken to this 'brrrrrmmmm' floating car however)

Enjoying watching Emily getting on things and in things and up to things :-)

Great to have Jon back

Jon's been away for a week's work back in the office, while we've been enjoying having Grandpa around. Here are some things we've been up to....

Playing with balloons! ("balls")

Overdosing on telephones

Stories with Grandpa

Finding taxis with seatbelts (Grandpa is a seatbelt magnet - I reckon there's 14 taxis in the whole of Bangkok that have backseat seatbelts and Grandpa has found them all :-)
