Because I was packing until the last minute,
we got to the gate 3 minutes before the plane took off.
here is the picture of Ren going to Japan for 4th time,
and Aila's first time on the airplane.
It was LONG, LONG, LOOOOOOONG trip to there.
after nearly 24 hours of total trip, we finally got to my parents' house safely.
Ren was good boy as usual, but this time,
he was so exhausted that he didn't want to get on a air plane anymore,
he didn't want to walk any more.....
he kept saying "that's too many airplanes...." and "papa says no more airplane"
but we made it!!
Aila was little cranky, but flight attendant ladies in the airplane were very very nice to us.
They helped every little thing that I needed to do.
I couldnt even reach the bar on the storage thing
(the thing you put backpackand stuff above your head)
so ladies opened and grabed my bags and put it back again so many times.
they served drink and snack at very good timing,
so we were never too thirsty or hungry.
the food.....wasn't very good, but we can't do much about it.....
and at dinner time at home, I gave them my surpise present to my parents.
the 4th grandbaby (^^)
they were surprised, but seemed very happy.
For last couple of days, my mom still have job, so we haven't done much
We went little shopping, got (expensive) prepaid cell etc.

2nd pic.
on Saturday my aunt, uncle, cousin and her kids came to visit us.
we had fund time and we went to Sushi restaurant with them.
Yummmmm!!!! yeah, this is THE fish I need!
by the way, Ren is eating noodle in this picture.

3rd pic.
Aila was asleep whole time, which was good because there is not much that she can eat here.
Japan is very very cold everyday, so she is wearing the overall even in the restaurant.

The night we got here, both kids were very very sleepy and just fell sleep at home.
they woke up around 3 and started playing around.
Both ate late dinner, and aila was showing off what she could do.
and she just did a new trik
she stood up holding the couch!!
I was telling Jason that she might be walking holding stuff by the time we go back.
yeah....it's already starting.
Look what she can do now!

"I am so happy now I can reach more stuff!!
but I dont know why mama doesn't let me touch them??"
like in this picture, Ren is eating Japanese pudding (it's more like flan).
EVERY SINGLE TIME we come to Japan,
Ren's main food becomes this pudding.
He eats at least 2 in a day.
So, I forgot to grab the charger for camera and the cord to download picture from camera
so these are the only pictures I took with my cell.
Jason will be here in 2 days, and we are very excited!!
I hope he will have enough time to pack everything.
I will try to update more stuff maybe after Christmas.
We love you and miss you, Jase!
see you in couple of days!
