Family Vacation

This Christmas, we took our first ever "family trip" to Fuzhou, China to visit LH's grandparents and extended family. The plane ride was only an hour in length, but to us...it was pretty rough...nothing horrendous, but really tiring. We didn't manage to take many pics, cos it was a really busy trip...not with anything major, but just little things, like chasing after Aaron, checking on Aaron, feeding Aaron, washing up Aaron etc etc. Jerry, on the other hand was obviously much more easy to handle. Even as a young baby, Jerry was very easy on the 20 hour plus journey to Dallas (and on the plane back, even when he had diarrhea, not a peep, bless his heart).



Little Aaron is totally different and we feel like we want to back out of our plans to visit Dallas next summer....



On a lighter note, it was all in all a very good trip for LH's family to see the two boys. 2nd time seeing Jerry and 1st meeting with Aaron. Tai-Gung is over 90 and Tai-Po is close to 90, so visiting them means a lot to all of us. Their home is up on the 6th floor, without lifts, which means a climb up 6 flights of stairs every day. It's not too bad for me, cos I didn't hv to carry anyone, but for Kelvin and sometimes his brother or his aunts & uncles, that was a lot of work to carry Aaron, cos that boy is HEAVY. Jerry felt left out sometimes, so he asked to be carried (luckily, not up the stairs). His grand-aunts and grand-uncles did not mind and even said that he was light! haha.

Jerry is patiently waiting in the hotel lobby.

We spent a lot of our time, eating...
Using the computer...
Cleaning up...

Apparently, this chair was used by LH and his brother when they lived with their maternal grandparents over 30 years ago!


Aaron had a lot of fun with this cane...kept using it to hit the pomeloMy three boys!
