Ton's been sick since last Sat, her fever stays between 37C to 38C, not high for flue, but not low enough for her to go to school. Today papa felt sick he stayed home. I had a parent meeting for Mo's class, and left babies at home with Ton and papa, left for elementary school. They had a mini concert before the PTA meeting, and I totally missed Mo's.... But I got a video from one of moms!

Masaki's first visit at Robot Park while Naoya was asleep on the stroller. He was so excited couldn't stop moving around. I went down the slide a few times with him, and it was painful because of static...! His hair was standing the entire time...

BF at Are, Shibuya

 Japanese BF

Left babies with baba while they were in good mood in the morning, I went to Shibuya to run errands. It was still before stores open, so I went to a new cafe called Are, near British School. It's pretty nice place, decent food, could be a keeper! It was interesting that a group of parents apparently from British School having a meeting in the corner of the cafe. I guess it's their usual meeting space, other than Streamer Coffee...

Hula potluck party

Hula potluck party & Oz's birthday party at Hula class. Since papa was away for biz trip, I had Kazuko baba for help with babies. Cooked white chilli, gave Oz big cookies. We left Ton & Mo to stay until the end of the party, and we went for home in an hour and half.

Synagis vaccination for babies today, and Masami jiji came for help. It was very crowded, as people who couldn't make it last week due to snow came today. We had to wait good 90 min despite of our appointment, and babies were exhausted, so was jiji... We gave them snack, and they immediatelly fell asleep.
Masaki started crying as we entered the hospital, I guess he could tell what was going to happen...
