Jon started babbling about week 10, "coo", "eh" (wants to be burped), "neh" (I'm hungry), "ang-goo" (hello) and "eairh" (I'm happy). He doesn't talk much when he notices he is being recorded. Haha.... but we managed to record a little of his baby talk.

Scrapping for Jon
I've finally started scrapping for Jonathan in Oct. Some are done from a SB kit, while a couple were done with materials that came with an album bought in Miri. Took me a while to scrap again, a bit rusty. 
Visitors from Singapore
My mum, Simon's brothers, Stanley & Darien, and sis-in-law Ee Chiew, came over the weekend from 26-28 Oct. Grandma played with Jon Jon who weighs 7kg now. As she had lost quite a bit of weight due to menopause, I will carry him and pass over to mum. Otherwise she may strain her arms, haha!It was mum's first time in Miri, we drove her around the city to show her the sights. And we brought her to eat at our version of Satay Club. Hope she had a good 3-day break. Next time, she can come on her own and stay longer.
We had a great time catching up with Stanely and Darien, whist they took time to catch up on DVDs and sleep! They are working so overtime in Singapore, Stanley with his reno contracts and Darien's company rushing orders for TV screens. Jon Jon was very happy that so many people came and visited him. He was so talkative.

Weekend at rainforest resort
This happened three weeks ago over the Raya weekend. We checked out the Borneo Tropical Rainforest resort, an agro and nature resort nestled in pristine an dlush tropical rainforest of the Lambir Hills. Neighbouring the Lambir Hills National Park, the resort was about 40mins away from Miri Town. 
As all 18 chalets were booked, we stayed in the deluxe room in the main building. When we got there, we realised only the 4th floor was completed, luckily the rooms were OK. We were disappointed by the BBQ dinner. There was only one grill that BBQ the food for 60+ people! The few staples in the chafting dishes were wiped out clean by the families. Luckily we brought chips and Tim Tams!
We enjoyed the nature walk (check out pic of wild mushroom below), the small waterfalls, and also took a tram ride pulled by a tractor to see the whole estate. We passed the fruit farms, domestic farm, and then took a boat ride. There was also a river where you can do some boating with your kids, and a pond for fishing. Simon would have fished if not for the fact that he would have to pay to fish, for the bait and the catch as well.
If you ever come to Miri, we will bring you to do some trekking at the Lambir Hills National Park. When you go further in, the waterfalls are higher. The two small ones here are more for educational exposure.
