      Thank you for always making captions! At 27:16, I believe it's intended to be "always have a cardigan handy for the airplane, 'cause you never know how strong the aircon will be". Changes are just cardigan for (indistinct), aircon for alcohol

    Not me at 4:37 dying over how cute is it that Rupert is obsessed with dragons and rabbits exactly his two mommies zodiac signs ❤

  • @nottheoneforyou
    @nottheoneforyou ปีที่แล้ว +297

    I would absolutely love more clips of Rupert signing things if it's not too difficult to avoid or blur his face. I just think it's so cute how much he's learned so quickly and seeing a baby sign is precious.

    For future reference, mum's solution to people who are absolutely gracious and generous but always say 'Don't get me anything' is to give them an ang pow (or their children gets an extra large one if they reject your ang pow as well).
    Also, if they enjoy cooking, things like dried scallops/mushrooms, tinned abalone seems to be the way to go. These are all 'nicer' ingredients that they could use.

    • @stephtyee3484
      @stephtyee3484 ปีที่แล้ว +16

      Yes, brilliant! My mum's default "gift" at any and all occasions is ang pow for 2 reasons:
      1. ang pow is also a "blessing" and you can't/shouldn't reject blessings
      2. she just can't be bothered with gift shopping anymore 😆

    Gender neutral toys are very good. I made the mistake of only giving my son boys category toys early on.
    Your son playing with the dolls and putting them into the car is beautiful. Also giving boys baby dolls is good too, it makes them more nurturing and builds connections.
    Something a lot of people forget to teach their sons including me. But my sons getting better now. Rupert is a gem and you are amazing parent’s. I love your videos.

    • @melodyleong
      @melodyleong ปีที่แล้ว +29

      It shouldn't be much of an issue! Malaysia's not as progressive as I'd like, but it's not common to confront people in public which works in your favour. Regardless of how anyone may feel, they're unlikely to cause you any issues when you're out and about ecploring Msia.
      If you're visiting family, then it kind of depends on how open family is then. A lot of the older generation unfortunately still blurt out some horrifying things without even knowing how bad it sounds probably.

    As a Mama of a toddler boy, that monster truck you picked up is totally worth getting. My son has something like this (where they rev up and go super quickly and flip over when they hit something), and he thinks they are the BEST. Just wanted to let you know in case you read the comments! :)

How fun for Rupert to read the books and then really experience Lunar New Year! 🧧🧧 I’m sorry the change in beds made your pain so much worse and hope the places in Thailand have beds that are more comfortable for you ❤️❤️ The three of you were so adorable when Rupert had an outfit with dragons on it and then you had the matching skirt with one of your regular tops and Claudia had the matching shirt with her regular shorts! It was so cute and a great way to match as a family but still show your individual styles- love it! 👏🏻👏🏻 Safe travels and Happy Lunar New Year! 🐲🌝✈️🌝🐲

    If there are extra duvets where you're staying you can layer them on top of a hard mattress to soften it a bit. Whenever i've done this in the past it's always quite surprising how well it works. Plus the bed feels like one of those half-vacuum sealed packaging pieces when you first lay down, except you're the item it's been molded to fit.
