I can't believe how time is flying! Last week we took our first family "vacation." Vacation is in quotes because we went to visit my mother-in-law, which isn't quite a full on vacation where Shimon and I had to do everything with regards to Touma. We had a lot of help! I love being back home, but I do have to say that I do miss the other arms that we had to hold Touma during mealtimes and such. It's amazing how quickly I forgot how difficult juggling eating and Touma can be!
In the process of being gone and while we were away we had lots of "firsts." To name a few: first ride on a bullet train, first car/car seat ride, first stay in a hotel, first time sleeping kawamoji style (in Japan parents and kids often sleep in the shape of the Chinese character for river, which looks like this 川 and is read kawa), first shrine visit, first official pictures, and first time flying on an airplane. :-) Some of the firsts were bigger than others like first bullet train (5 hours of entertaining Touma for mom and dad - Shimon usually sleeps 4 out of 5 hours on that trip!) and first plane ride (and I was alone with him! he did really well and smiled at the pretty cabin attendants!).
While we were away, Touma officially rolled over for the first time. And the second time he did it, I was filming! He was a little surprised that he did it, but wasn't annoyed or scared or anything. The short video is on my facebook page if you haven't seen it already,
Next week we have our three month check and possibly more immunizations to look forward to. Also, my friend Chika had her baby so we'll have to get over to see her as well. Lots to do!! (pictures to follow when I get the time, baby's waking up now!!)
