i had another playdate with maven. it was rather short since she was sleeping most of the time, but i got a picture with the cuddly doggy again!

ronin says "hey maven, can i hold your hand?"

maven says "um... i'll think about it!"

Olympics-related news

With the onset of the Olympics, restaurants in China have taken dog off of the menu.

But, lucky for Ronin, it's still on the menu here at Calle Fortuna.

month 6

wow.... can't believe our little man is 6 months now! he has grown and changed so much. we took the liberty of celebrating his 6 months with dinner and cake (or muffin i should say!).




jimmy bought cute little muffins for the little guy and he quickly dipped his fingers in the icing as soon as i put it down on his tray. i think there was residual sugar on his hands even after i wiped it off. i have to react faster to his quick hands next time!
