Louis gets a haircut

We finally took Louis in for a haircut - I was sad to see the big curls go but he looks quite handsome and grown up with his new cut. He did very well at the barber shop!

Before & After

Kelli and Derek's Last Date Before...

Kelli and I had the sitter keep Louis for a few hours tonight so that we could go out for a last dinner date before Magnum arrives. You know a picture of parents was taken on a night without kids, because they can get away with wearing white to have dinner.



Kelli is holding a note card that reads "39 weeks". After the first 100 shots that didn't turn out, we missed the card on this one.

Parachute time at playgroup

Louis loves the parachute at our playgroup!

Kyu Shiba-rikyu Gardens #2

I think these are my favorite gardens - nearby (30 min walk), playground in front, and of course - beautiful! Louis loves running around the gardens and enjoys the playground too.

We have been seeing these lovely flowers everywhere lately.

Back to the beach!

Met up with friends at the beach!

Visited the Statue of Liberty while we were there.

Louis carried 'Mr. Hedgehog' with him (one of my childhood toys).

Louis and Daddy

Here are a few pictures of Louis and I from the last few days.

Louis wanted us to take a picture of ourselves. The curls are getting out of control. We'll have to get him a haircut soon, he's starting to need to brush them out of his eyes when he's out.

Waiting for coffee to brew, I stretched out on the floor. Louis brought over his friends; Bear, Babo, and Mr. Hedgehog and put them next to me. Then he laid down too.

Fountain Fun (Tokyo Midtown Park)

The warmer weather is great for afternoons in the fountain!
