Jonathan’s 1st CNY

This year was Jonathan Boy’s first CNY and receiving lots of ang pow.  He can really grab the ang pow and hold on to it nicely. I don’t have to rugi a lot this year but got back half of what was out from my pocket. 😛

First ang pow from Gong Gong. I wonder how much inside??

We travel back to Sitiawan 3 days before CNY and stopped by Ipoh to visit God-parents as this is the first time Jonathan meeting up with them. God-mom was so anxious and happy to see Jonathan and carrying him for the first time. Of course because her own grandchildren are in New York and she had never seen them before other than some photos that God-brother sent back. Unfortunately God-dad went out at that time.

It was also Jonathan first time stepping in to Sitiawan, back in Daddy and Mommy’s hometown. The moment he stepped into Darling’s house, he felt like a stranger and kept looking around. He would not allow us to put him down.

As usual we went to Pangkor on the 1st day of CNY to visit my Grandma. The queue to the ferry was quite long and crowded but good thing that Jonathan slept thru soundly in Daddy’s arm during the 1 hour queue. Luckily we brought along the clip-on fan and thank God for the windy morning. 

The 2nd day was always the Fu Qing Association CNY celebration in the afternoon whereby they will always have the calligraphy and animal-of-the-year drawing contest. On the 3rd day, we visited Darling’s uncles and aunties in Pantai Remis. We departed for KL on 4th day morning as we are worried of the jam and Darling need more rest to prepare for his new job.

Overall, Jonathan Boy behaved quite well throughout the journey (to and fro) although he did make some fuss after more than 4 hours in his car seat. Of course his little buttock also need a break like we adults do. 😀
