Farm

In Hong Kong, PoPo (grandma) has the same sweeper, that we named it "boo boo" (car's beep sound), Yoshi loved pushing it around the house. Now that we came to Japan, Obaachan also has the same sweeper, so Yoshi was really happy. But poor everyone else, has to follow him everywhere, making sure he's not hitting things or himself....

On this sunny day (still a bit cold), we went to visit Ojiichan's farm. (KonKon, PoPo, I bet u are very jealous with this farm's size here....& the harvest) Yoshi had lots of fun "helping".....(sort of) Potato Daikon (radish) Huge diakon "Kaki" (these were given by Ojiichan's farm friend)

Japan II

Time to go out again....Yoshi's favorite everyday. It's very cold here, so Yoshi was bundled up like a snowman.

Inside the mall, there is this huge entertainment center. I thought it used to be only toys or stuff animals, now, there are few more realistic things- potato chips (mega packs)(that's all I could take photos of before someone stopped me using camera)

This flowers are so pretty, multi red color. We went to the shrine, first we need to clean our hands and mouth using those bucket. Yoshi must be wondering if it's warm or cold water?!

While I was pregnant with Yoshi, grandma went to this shrine to pray for smooth pregnancy. So now that Yoshi was born, we took him back as a token of thanks. We also got that pouch representing good luck charm.

After shrine, let's go for lunch at a somen place. Yoshi was trying to place his order too... Last night, grandparents babysit Yoshi for us so me and Nori went out for dinner on our own. We walked into a Yakitori place in random, it was a great find. It's a family own type of restaurant. Very friendly and busy. It's been so long that me and Nori went out dinner on our own without anyone else. We had a great date night, Ojiichan, Obaachan, arigato. This place is mainly serving skew type of meat. This afternoon, we went to Nori's sister place, and spend play time with Nana & Yuuki-chan again. Yoshi had lots and lots of fun. Grandpa's story telling session

Yoshi was wondering if he could join his cousins for girly playtime?!

He had so much fun pushing the little stroller around, following his older cousins

After that, we went to Apita. Check out the kids strollers...what a scene. Yoshi loves turning the steering wheel

Even though he was having so much fun, but he was really tired afterall.

Merry (belated) Christmas from Japan

On the way from HK to Nagoya, Japan....Yoshi's entertainment: Stickers again. This time, there was Nori travelling with us, he became the sticker clown.

Got bored? how about try playing with your own shoes We had 5 hrs transit time in Tokyo, luckily they have children play area, so Yoshi got to relax a bit too. Ojii-chan, Obaa-chan, Koniichiwa!! Yoshi didn't seem to have problem recognizing grandpa in particular, perhaps because he has the familiar Marlboro scent ^_^ "Moshi Moshi" Yesterday, we had lunch at my favorite ramen (noodle) shop, it's a very local chain type, but they had very good ramen and dumplings We sat on the tatami floor, and they even had special child seat

Nana & Yuuki-chan, koniichiwa (Yoshi's twin cousins)

It's Christmas party, of course there were lots of presents Thank you.... Christmas exchange

Thanks PoPo for the twin sweat shirts, so cute

So cute wearing the masks from IKEA

Let's blow the candles on the x'mas cake

Let's make sure Obasan cut equal share of the cake...(QC teams)

While everyone were enjoying cake, Yoshi enjoyed his own dessert- milk
