Hope everyone had a great Christmas






Orion celebrated his first Christmas this year at grandma's house where she cooked a 20 pound turkey with mash potatoes, sticky rice and spring rolls (we're asian afterall). Unfortunately the only menu item Orion chose to have is milk. He hung out with his little uncle, Wilson (3 year's old) and older uncle, Gilbert.

2-month check up


Orion had his 2 month check up today and got some shots. According to the doctor, he is in the 90th percentile with his length. Wow! Maybe he'll be like Yao Ming? We noticed that he's been wearing 3-6 month old clothing and the length has been fitting him fine, but he's not quite as wide to fill it out :) As for his weight, it's average (50th percentile). We were quite happy with his length though.

Some new developments with the little bear is that he now smiles deliberately and loves to stand. He can support his own weight when he stands (mommy and daddy just needs to balance him). He also uses his hands as a weapon. Both mommy and daddy got clubbed in the face when he slept in bed with them. He also babbles with different tones like he's having a conversation when you're talking with him. The babbles seem to be full sentences, but we just can't make out what he says yet. The little bear also seems to be enjoying bath time. It's his favorite activity and he is most active when taking a bath.
