Ryan's Full Moon

Even though I did not attend Ryan's full moon dinner, the photos are in my possession, how they got mixed up with my batch of photos, I do not know. Anyway, Uncle Kiat has scanned both the photos and the negatives painstakinly one by one and archived them, so they are all in my safekeeping.

 Ryan is now exactly one month old: 15th March 1997.  Here he is in his designer togs and surrounded by his baby shower...a much loved and much wanted baby

 His full regalia of Osh Kosh mitts, wrapping blanket, vest, bootees , and tiny pants
