Notes from a travelling daddy

Here I am, after a long day, alone in a hotel room in Philippines. What do I do? Blogging. Isn't this sad? Then again,the opportunity for solitude and reflection is a rare commodity these days.

It's a great thing that I have my online photo album (It's free : picassa from google) of the little fella and mummy. What's even better is Skype. It is an Internet based online voice facility that allows you to chat for free and it sounds as clear as a phone. Mobile charges here are high and sometimes the connections aren't that great.
Skype has proven to be a great tool cos you can talk handsfree and it's as if you are there on the other side. I can even hear the kid moaning when he was hungry when I am talking to Lina. Wonders of Internet technology.

Just heard Russell's MR (metabolic rate ) has shot through the roof. He is eating 120 ml every 2 hrs and now sweats when there is no air conditioning. Doesn't want to be wrapped up anymore when sleeping. Loves to sleep with his hands up position. Just like Daddy. So, now we can finally turn down the temperature and sleep without feeling like we are in summer night.

Next week is Russell's full moon. Wondering what we should do...
