Doesn't feel well....

Tonchan through up last night twice. She didn’t have appetite these days, and wants my breast milk for the while time when we’re together, and her poop is very loose. Probably it’s because another back teeth is coming…

New Shoes...not

Since Tonchan started walking, we needed proper shoes for her for walking outside. Went to check out a small store in the neighborhood during lunch break for some shoes. Oh my, the stuff they had were hand painted shoes, not my taste, nor pretty (?!) unfortunately, but ridiculously expensive: more than US$60 a pair. I didn’t feel urge to buy any of those, and I simply left. I don’t think she wants new shoes that bad.

Many steps forward

She walked! She walked between me and Ren over and over!! Here's video.

After morning nap and lunch, we went to Shinjuku Takashimaya to try on Ren’s custom made suit.

Then we went on to Isetan and checked out Kyushu fair. Loaded our favorite miso pork, while Tonchan was eating sample ham quite a lot.

Got tummy flue going around, and was resting over the weekend. Ton chan took her dad and grandma for haircut so that I can rest at home peace and quiet.

Sushi Dinner with Jen & Peter

Jen & Peter took me out for sushi dinner at Sushi Seizan. So I left my baby with my husband at home with his mother.
Took seats in front of sushi chef to celebrate Peter’s very first Sushi in Japan, he busted his Japanese to order Uni, and 4 different sake to sample with Jen’s advise.
We had 10 pieces and several more for Peter and I, and we all finished with awesome Awabi (abalone). It’s the best Awabi I ever had in my life! They steamed if for 4 hours to make it tender. Sushi chef’s comment was that those young kids who eat potato chips and junk foods would not be able to taste this delicate daintiness, which I totally agree. I’m grateful that we all can taste it and appreciate it. Thanks Peter & Jen!
