 Naoya snoring  Volume up and you can hear him Masaki The weather was wonderful, 18C, so went out for walk. We stayed outside for about 3 hours, and apparently it made babies tired, Naoya started snoring. They were very grumpy in the evening, probably were still tired.

Naoya flipped by himself! Masaki did a couple of days ago, that I didn't witness, but this one I saw with my own eyes!

 Nap time  Naoya Masaki I had an appointment at St. Luke's Hospital in the afternoon, sent Mo to his friend's for a movie. Ton was away with her friend's grandparents' for 2-night-sleep over since Sat, it had been very quiet.

A Turkish guy selling this at Family Festival told me it's the best you can get in Japan, and indeed it was delicious!

 Ton had hula stage scheduled for Sacred Heart International school, and we all left with help of Ikko, Mo's friend's family. The weather was great, twins did good job, I could feed them twice, Mo played with his friend and siblings, and enjoyed food. Ton left home in the afternoon to stay at her friend's grand parents' house for 2 nights. Photos here .
