It was raining so we stayed home. Babies started swinging their bodies to side, and trying to stand up free hand often. They didn't have nap in the afternoon, so fed them at 5, and put them to bed at 6pm! They're going to nap only once a day soon.  A video of babies playing here .

Babies at nursing room at Roppongi Hills Beautiful weather today again and went out for a walk in Roppongi Hills. Had lunch at Starbucks, and there comes somebody looks very familiar.... it was papa!

A video of Naoya fighting with a fish pillow. We had many guests today at home: Lisa, Yuria, and Rion and their moms came with siblings to check and take Ton's old clothes; Mo took his friend Eimu to home to play; and Ryuei and Lisa I met while walking babies came home to play and had dinner. I took out babies for walk twice as the weather got really nice after rain in the morning. Busy day!

 Sleepy Naoya in the morning  Rash is fading a little  Masaki getting better  Sleepy Naoya Babies watching water falls Masaki looks much better today. Naoya still has no sign of rash yet he's also having runny nose and a bit grumpy. We've been locked ourselves inside for the past 2 days we decided to go out for a walk in the morning before it gets hot.

I kept feeding him rice porridge, gave him lots of water to drink. And he was standing for a second, all by himself...! Naoya has no rash but he's also grumpy, and his nose is runny. Maybe he's fighting it, too.

Woke up this morning to find Masaki with rash mainly on his lower belly and thighs. He was having runny nose for the past 4 days and super grumpy yesterday, didn't eat much of dinner. Took him to clinic and Dr. said it was allergic reaction yet didn't know the cause, and he got us itchy cream and medicine. Though Ana thinks it's Roseola, and I actually agree, so nothing much we can do but keep him hydrated. I just let him around in diaper as rash were quite hot and he didn't seem like enjoying clothes touching his skin. Well, one disease checked!

About 15 babies and their moms (yes, all of them!) attended, and we were the only twin babies.  Checking a book  Checking panda Books we got today from Bookstart

 Masaki brushing teeth Naoya brushing teeth A video of Babies brushing teeth here . Bought a couple of new baby tooth brush which made with silicon and bends a lot. Babies love chewing on it. 

 Happy Naoya Watching TV with big sis A video of Naoya crushing Masaki here .  Papa left for Copenhagen in the morning. Went to buy bagels at Maruichi Bagel, Mo went to play date at his friend's house, Ton, Kazuko baba, and I took more walk while babies were sleeping on the stroller. Wind felt a bit cooler today. Babies were a bit grumpy. Maybe because of runny nose?

 Boys napping  Baba made pizza for kids A video of Naoya on the box, Masaki playing with kitchen tools. It was quite cold today we stayed home all day long, just relaxing. Babies have been quite grumpy, but they had good naps, didn't cry much at night during the sleep. Kazuko baba came to stay and she made pizza dinner for kids.

A battle ship called NAKA, that my mother's father used to be on board, before bombed around Chuuk Islands, Western Pacific Ocean. Goals of second semesters are: write letters fast and careful, and wash hands and gargle everyday for health. Had a PTA meeting at school for Mo's class, and I could ask my friend to look after twins while I was at the meeting. I like Mo's new teacher. Mo's been staying the class room since she took over his former teacher who's on maternity leave. She's very enthusiastic and could play with students during the recess. How cool is that?
