Sofa climbing

Papa & Mama believe that Louis has good chance to win the Hong Kong Baby Sofa Climbing Competition, if such event exists at all.

The "Kung Hei" Dance

Being excited by the various "Kung Hei Kung Hei*" TV commercials, Louis showed off his new dance with his (old) red socks!

*Kung Hei means "Congratulations" in Chinese, a phrase frequently used during Chinese New Year

Louis, the mini-Raymond

Papa, Mama & Louis all wore strip-printed outfits for Chinese New Year (by coincidence, not planned before hand). But Papa insisted on dressing up Louis on a checker shirt, which made Papa & Louis look SO MUCH alike. It's a perfect "father & son" look!

The Tong's family wishes all bloggers a Happy Chinese New Year, and a healthy and blessed year of the Ox!

Louis Jaa

Tony Jaa is a famous Thai martial art movie star that Papa likes. The recent agile movements of Louis equally impressed Papa.

From the floor, to the cabinet, then to the sofa...

... and then from the sofa to the window

Babyproof?

All the baby proof measurements somehow draw Louis' extra attention as if they are new toys to him.

Feet down first

Papa was amazed one day when he saw Louis turn himself and get down from the bed on his feet. Credit to Mama again for training Louis to pick up this useful safety skill.

Shake shake shake

Among his basket of toys, Louis has special liking to the DIY ones, like these "shake shake bottles".

Louis vs Louis

King Louis XIV ruled France from 1643 to 1715, the longest documented for any European monarch.

Baby Louis, in his Chinese Emperor Dragon yellow jacket, is crowned as "King Louis of Hong Kong" (by Papa). King Louis is on duty only when weather is really cold, as otherwise the jacket will be too thick.

Statue of Louis

Dressing up in winter gear made Louis look stiff, like a statue.

Louis' Corner

In order to show Louis the importance of tidy, Papa and Mama have dedicated an area along the TV cabinet for storing Louis' books and toys. Louis likes to cruise along the place, check out his favorite toys or books and play on his own. Papa and Mama hope that very soon Louis will learn how to tidy up too.

Necessary entertainment dinning outside

The key to have an undisturbed meal dining out is to keep Louis entertained (or distracted). The little car works okay as table toy recently but still, snack is his all-time favorite that out beat everything else.

Signature post

Raising hand is one of Louis' signature post when he gets fascinated. The latest fascination is the holiday decoration in the IFC mall. Louis could hardly draw his eyes away from the spinning Ferris Wheel, while Papa and Mama enjoyed looking at his lovely smile very much.

Have a shinny 2009!

Nothing is better than a good weather to start the new year. Papa and Mama couldn't stop pressing the camera button as the natural lighting is just perfect for good pictures.

Wish the Year 2009 is a fun and shinny one!
