With JW at the Zoo

Photo of JW and Mrs Kong taken at the Zoo Negara, with Mrs Kong crappy handphone camera. JW loves this photo though. He recognises it as a photo of "papa and baby"!

Walking walking walking

JW is doing it cautiously. :) And mummy is thankful for that. He is now doing so, pushing his little plastic car along nicely, and has even learned how to turn!

Another day of practice, heading to perfection.

My Precious Baby by April - love these diapers!

My Precious Baby by April diapers...

Mrs Kong went on a cloth diaper shopping spree a few months ago and got a whole lot of modern cloth diapers for JW. Yes, it is a little mad, but its a choice we gladly make. Admittedly, its not a choice for everyone, especially for super busy parents, but I suppose this is a choice we are most comfortable with. 6 months into cloth diapering (excluding the first 2 months of JW's life where we used the old fashioned nappies), we are pleased we took this route.

Anyway, JW is now growing and growing. We don't know where the weight is going, but he is certainly changing. Once again, we find ourselves in between sizes... L and XL. He still fits L but its a snug fit. Mrs Kong is bracing herself for another buying spree (don't worry, they pay for themselves as we save by buying less disposables). In the meantime, what do we do with the brand new Ls which have yet to be washed and used?

These are the L diapers Mrs Kong has yet to put into the wash for use. Use for JW or sell? hmmm. Are they not gorgeous?

5th Year Anniversary

Mr & Mrs Kong celebrated their 5th year anniversary yesterday with food food and more food.

Mr Kong's craving for pizza led to a pizza lunch at our old hangout - KLCC. Went to California Pizza Kitchen. It was as we remembered it - good food but very indifferent service. Still, Mr Kong got his fix with a good view thrown into the bargain.

Dinner was at Hajime Japanese restaurant where we gorged ourselves on Japanese food. We almost had to roll ourselves to the car! Both times we had the standby babysitters aka grandparents take the boy. All in all a good day!

5 years ago, we went through a crazy day and night of a full on Chinese wedding ending with a massive 60 table dinner. The stress, heat, tight clothes and lack of food during the day even caused Mr Kong to fall ill but luckily he recovered in time for dinner.

It was very memorable but extremely stressful and tiring for us. We both agree that it might have been better to elope!

Anyway, 5 years later and we have been through so much together. Lived in the UK, travelled, came back, had JW and everything in between. Those years together through the downs and ups have definitely made us stronger and we look forward to many more 5 years together.

Here's to us Mrs Kong!

Wool at night

JW in the Baby Beehinds Wool cover.

It is suppose to be cooler than PUL (Polyurethane Laminate); and to that Mrs Kong can testify. We have used it sporadically for a few nights now, and am glad to report that it is true. Hard to believe but true. It also manages to keep the smell of the pee in better, compared to the nights when we used our PUL pocket diapers. And surprisingly, turns out odour free after it dries out in the sun without frequent washing.
