China trip I --- familly get-together
We spent about 10 days in Yoyo's hometown where we stayed at YoyoMama's. It was the first time we introduce MM to Yoyo's family. We had two big family lunch banquets to present him, each with over 15 people and about 30 dishes. People seemed to like MM a lot, especially when he tried to speak Chinese (I have to say, I am impressed by how fast MM is learning).
We did have a problem on dinner tables. For those who know MM it is not suprising to see him finishing up his food in somewhere between 3 seconds (if it is an apple) to 3 minutes (if it is a full meal). But YoyoMama thought this full-speed eating was a sign of still being hungary. In her mind somebody as big as MM must eat a lot. So a common table scene was like this: MM made faces when he was struggling in finishing up all the food YoyoMama made especially for him.
Still MM lost weight during the trip. That is because not only we ate a lot we also walked around a lot, which I am going to talk about in episode II of our China trip.
