A bath in hand

Hao-chan likes to watch me wash the dishes – and then he’ll jump into my hands and take a bath and shower. (This was taken with a low-res cell phone – I’ll get a better resolution movie next time!)

Hao-chan helping out in the computer room

Tuesday, February 3rd, 2009

 

Hao-chan often hangs out with me in the computer room and helps out.  Very often he breaks into song and hops up and down on my hand. It really is very funny, but I’ve never been able to record him doing it.
