The Biggest Tour of the Year

Hokkaido! Here we come!

It was totally awesome.

1. Baby had no problem pooping when he drank and ate the food there. This was the biggest amazement ever.
2. Baby had no problem going up and down the the planes - 8 sets of up and downs in all (including the internal flights from Haneda to Hokkaido and from Hokkaido to Osaka).
3. Parents had a chance to go enjoy the onsen while baby was asleep.
4. We had the most breath-taking view of fireworks both from on top of a hill and from our hotel room.
5. We had a group of great tour mates who loved baby!
6. We had lots of ice-cream (including lavender ice cream and strawberry ice cream we made ourselves.
7. We had so much scallop and crabs in the first two days I was glad we could detox from it on the 3rd day.

Thank God for blessing us with the ability to go on this unforgettable trip.

A Temporary Solution

It's been decided. I shall be a part-time stay-at-home-mum (sahm) to take care of the baby. A bit troublesome but at least I get to stay home a bit with J and his body can take this opportunity to recuperate. His two po po's will help take turns to look after him.

The Very Sick Boy

The little boy contracted chest infection "worse than bronchitis." When I heard this, my heart broke. Have we been negligent parents? What will become of the boy? Should I quit my job and stay home with him? Many thoughts went through my mind as we took the boy home after a busy morning packed with an x-ray, a small procedure to draw his mucus for further testing and a follow up with the paediatrician to ascertain the current state of health for J.

The Father's News Report

Destroyed tractors and animals strewn all around, could this disaster zone really be the work of 1 baby?

The Rabbit

Hop hop hop. That's what Junior has been doing since he learnt how to do it. I've seen how Terrie learnt to hop and so I know this is not an easy deal. It's a big deal for toddlers. But when they master it, you share the exhilaration with them.

We found 2 new pearlies in Junior's mouth today! Finally... after a dry spell for so long. Now I'm proud to say Junior has 10 teeth.

These 2 teeth are on either side of the upper jaws.
