We brought Ethan to Bali in April when he was about to turn 5 months. Celebrated my 29th birthday there :)

| Like this new Burberry that I got for myself from Japan for my 29th birthday? :) |
He's such a lucky baby. First international flight and already taking Business Class. The air-stewardess gave him so much attention.

The first night we were there, he slept throughout. It was bliss.
 |
| Look how he has grown at 4 months old! |
But on the second and third day, we find that he would not want to latch on and breastfeed as always. I tried so hard to feed him but he would refuse. I was a little worried because I only brought 3 feeds of milk powder as back up! I figured it must be the bottle feed that we gave him when we were away in Japan for 1 whole week.
Ethan woke up and cried a few times a night. I didn't know what to do except trying to let him latch on, which he continuously refuse. We were so worried. I decided to just give him the bottle as he must be hungry to keep waking up and cry.
So I pump and feed him through bottle for the rest of the trip. It was quite troublesome because I didn't bring the warmer. Plus, had to be very careful of sterelising the bottles properly.
The following night, on my birthday, we decided to order room service just in case Ethan is cranky. My husband ordered fresh barbeque lobster from a nearby famous restaurant called The Mead. Food was so delicious! Novotel gave me a little cake too.

| Ignore the decorations. The cake tasted so good! |
To our surprise, Ethan slept throughout and only woke up at 10pm for milk. I guess, he knows we needed quiet time :)
 |
| I thought we both look really lovely here |
And so it was a really sweet birthday celebration. Just the 3 of us.
I love it.
XOXO
