Oops! I turned 1 Yr-Old, and Made my maiden trip overseas!!

See, I am now a big boy! I turned 1 yr-old on Wednesday July 22 2009, and celebrated with my auntie Tega and my loveliest Mom! We went to Saigong, Japanese Restaurant, and had a fireside dinner. Of course you know, my mom brought my home cooked dinner. But still we had loads of fun!! Then I had another bash with many of my fav people, and my godmother Phina came from Boston. Oh! it was lovely. Mom made it a black, yellow and red affair...colors of the Uganda flag. Auntie Tega made the cake. A big fat carrot cake plus a chocolate brownie for me. Oh! she is so lovely! everybody loved loved the cake. Plus the memory book autie Tega and Mom put together for me . Oh! will never forget. You know I cried. but that's typical me...and who says you can't cry on your b/day!




So, that's me sitting on a chair at my doc's clinic. It's my annual visit (12 months) and I had come for shots. can you believe I did not cry! but you know. I am a tough boy...Big boys don't cry. Well, I cried a little but was back to my fun-self. oh!



Here I am getting ready to fly to Oslo, Norway via Frankfurt on Lufthansa airways. Mom brought out all possible toys to help see us through this long trip. There's Winnie-the-Pooh, Travel Giraffe, my PJs. and of course not to forget the lovely thumb...oh! how I love that thumb! Can you imagine, at 1 yr-old, I am already flying places. Well, I am gonna be an international baby.





This is popsy and I waiting in the departure lounge at Hartsfield Jackson International Airport in Atlanta. Popsy came all the way! Mom asked for a gate pass for him...and he came with us to help us with all bags and pre-flight relaxation. Indeed mom felt so relaxed...because she's always managing me alone. But this time, she had somebody else to push the stroller, change my diapers, feed me, and entertain me while she had dinner and talk on the phone. As you know, I cried for her...and finally pospy handed me over to my dear lady






this is me in flight. I am trying to open my eyes, but I am really exhausted! What baby stays up until 5am in the morning? Well, this baby who can't sleep on the plane...He tried to sleep but sometimes were just too hard. So, mom had to give up her seat to me and she sat, oops! dosed on he floor.. Until the air hostess came to ask her off the floor.
















Now, I am trying to fix this volume. It's so loud, and I need another channel. I am already a smart cookie, don't fool with me. I am too smart for myself.








That's my lady I am traveling with. My mom. I love my mom. I know she's tired. and has not had sleep. but she's pretending that she's had enough...just for me!
