February in a Flash

After we left Los Angeles, we flew to Thailand to try to get there in time to see some friends. We had also planned to take a week of vacation in Phuket with Alvin's parents.

We spent almost everyday going to the pool. During our vacation time, we went to the pool two or three times a day. Meliya really loved it. After we got home, she had some major breakdowns if she couldn't go outside right after every meal, and also renewed her love for bathing in the bathtub.

During the vacation time, we saw a baby elephant. If you buy bananas from the owner, you could feed the elephant and even pet him. Meliya and I decided to do it together, but we both did not like it when he put his trunk around my neck. It was itchy.

Also, we went to the beach. Alvin's parents really enjoyed their time with Meliya and loved helping her walk around and helping her up and down the stairs. Meliya was getting really close to walking by herself, but she never took the steps while we were in Thailand.
