Happy 13 months, Louisa!

She's a pretty fun little girl… STILL not walking and not really showing any interest in starting, sigh!

Hanging out with the Grandparents

Oba and Sofu are visiting and getting a taste of how crazy busy our lives are! They are a big help with childcare while we shuffle about between swimming, gymnastics, violin lessons and school. Not to mention the date night allowed to Greg and I :) We're enjoying showing them around and visiting some fun places!

 Helping Greg attempt to finally hang a piece of art we purchased in Japan… but it's still not done!

AFTER

Cora and I decided to donate our hair, as we have a lot to give… she really seemed proud to be able to share her hair with sick children who don't have hair (and understand it, really…) We are donating it to "Wigs for Kids," who seem reputable and giving. Wish we could see the wigs made :)

Measuring

 Cora ended up losing 11 inches, I lost 19 inches

Ta-dah!

Emi's first day of gymnastics

Now that Emi's potty-trained (yeah!) she has been accepted early into gymnastics. Today was her first day and she was soooo excited. She was a good listener and gave it her all. We look forward to seeing her blossom :)

Yay, Oba and Sofu have come back for a visit… it's been a long time and we're so happy they're here :)
