Bunky is now technically mobile. With his eye on the prize, watch his moves:
A big effort so far - time for a quick rest:
Aaaaand we're off again:
And finally... SUCCESS:
George's new roommates
When I went to get Bunky up at 7am this morning, his door was ajar - which could only mean one thing: that someone* hadn't close the door properly last night, and two of our housemates** had decided to head into the "forbidden room" and see what was going on. When I pushed the door open a little more, Ben was sitting there looking up at me with his usual indignant "What?" expression on his face, and Poppy was fast asleep on George's playmat. Both of them scarpered when I came in, little chickens.
Thankfully, neither of them had thought to jump into Bunky's cot (although I have caught Poppy in there once before), and Bunky was happily snoozing away with Hiphop.

Bunky can flyyyyyy
Pretend sneezing. Apparently it's hilarious...

Sai Kung
If our trip to Sai Kung is anything to go by, Hong Kong road planners throw cooked spaghetti on a piece of paper, and then ask the road construction companies to "do the roads like that." Honestly - it was like driving through a spaghetti-themed maze complete with toll tunnels and psychotic taxi and minibus drivers. Thankfully we had been given awesome directions and got to lunch without a hitch. Anyway, we had a lovely barbeque with friends Susannah and Sam (along with toddler Max and baby Matilda), and also saw the Hoffpeople there. Although the weather went a bit poopy on us as soon as lunch was served, we still managed to eat outside and have a great time. I took a few photos of various little people running around in the rain playing by the paddling pool:
We managed to get back from Sai Kung without getting lost, and after we got home, Bunky had a little swim and a teeny tiny photo session:
In other matters, Bunky's late feed is slowly being moved forward. It's usually 10:30pm, but for the last week or so Rachel has been bringing it forward. Tonight it comes to 9:40pm, and the aim is of course to eventually eliminate it altogether. So far he hasn't woken up any earlier in the morning, but time will tell whether he can eventually hit the 12 hour holy grail sleep.
Righto - off to watch a spot of tv and then hit the pillow.
Bunky watched a few minutes of Spooks on television...
Check out the intense look of concentration:
Friday at last!
Bunky got a new seat!
And it's red, like a fire engine...
Also met up with the Hoffmen this afternoon and took a few photos of their gorgeous little ones Evie and Bea. I haven't edited many yet, but here's one of Evie:
The Nanny Diaries
Day 1 of George's Nanny Chronicles couldn't have gone better. He slept all night without a peep (as was the case last night as well), and behaved like a little angel all day (well, an angel that poops itself at regular intervals, but an angel nonetheless). I managed to get home at 6:10pm and Rachel wasn't far behind at 6:25pm, so we got to do bathtime and bedtime, which was rather nice. Here's a photo of the little munchkin in his blue onesie - I must say, blue sits him. He looks all sophisticated...
