'Tis the Season to be Jolly

Our little ballet dancer (we have no idea how he managed to get into this position)

New Tricks

This is an interesting view of things.

Who knew the bottom of a chair could be so fascinating! (Brandon lay under the chair for ages - thankfully the floor is heated)

In the walker at Seoul Club - he hasn't figured out how to walk in it yet but he thinks it's very exciting

Giggling on dad's shoulders

Once again, being underneath things is better than being on top of them

Focusing on getting his rice cracker into his mouth.

Yum Yum

It's hard work chewing with only 6 teeth.

Is there more?

A Hard Day's Work

This sitting business is getting old...

I'll try crawling.

Actually, crawling is a bit difficult so I'll practise my new trick - sticking my tongue out.

See...do you see my tongue???

I can bounce, play my paino and stick my tongue out, all at the same time.

Gotta keep my tongue out.

I'M STANDING

I'm so proud of myself

This is great.

I'm going to see if I can stand and stick my tongue out.

Aren't you proud of me, mom?

Mmm...do you think she'll mind if I pat her?

Oh, this is nice, she's a friendly dog.

OH NO, she's on my foot!!!

How do I tell her?

I know...

I'll grab HER foot!

Weekend Fun

Brad is sick, he has a cold and came home early on Friday. Everyone is scared of H1N1 so I think the people in his office were glad that he came home. They've raised the country alert level to a 5, the highest alert level for H1N1 and they are considering nation wide school closures. Brad went to bed and by Saturday afternoon he was feeling a lot better so we decided to take Brandon to the Seoul Club playroom to get him out the house. Brandon enjoyed playing with the new toys and he was fascinated with the older children in the playroom.

Getting ready to go to the playroom. It is getting cold and Brandon needed his warm jacket.

In the car, showing off his top and bottom teeth.

At the playroom, loving the new toys

Showing off for his admirers

Brad's Birthday

It was Brad's birthday on Saturday and we went for a champagne picnic in Seoul Forest. As usual, Brandon loved being outdoors. He also had his first taste of camembert cheese (surprisingly he ate it happily) and bread (he wasn't too sure what to do with the bread once it was in his mouth).

For dinner we went to La Cigale for some mussels. Brandon, exhausted from a day out, slept through the entire dinner.

Yay, we found a picnic spot!

This is fun

Smile!

I want some big people food too!

If I could only figure out how to open these things...

Okay, so I got a piece of bread into my mouth but now what?

Ummmm...what did you say I should do with this bit of bread?

I'll try chewing

Hooray, I swallowed it.

Haha,this outing is funny!

Look at my bottom teeth

I can stand

Wow, I see some birds up there
