Waiting for the train after a loooong day
                                                 

Loves his MiMi already
                                              
                                                       Mom, why do you do this to me???

All bundled up and ready to roll!
                                                             


I'm growing so much and getting fat rolls!

Loves to nap with Mommy at the coffee shop

Our precious boy

This is how we get around town... Mommy's shoulder is starting to hurt!

Our new friends :)

Trip to Harajuku

Stop at Shinjuku on the way

Shinjuku Station (Tokyo's busiest train station) during an off hour... you can image how this looks during rush hour!

Walkway entrance to the Meiji Jingu Shrine in Harajuku

Quick photo along the way.

Togo Shrine in Yoyogi Park

Angels Heart crepes...
Similar to a waffle cone, the crepes are rolled into a cone shape and filled with ice cream and fresh fruits - very tasty!

Another sign for a dental clinic
(Spotted this one at Nerima station)

Our neighborhood in Tokyo, Higashi-kurume

One of the many local gardens
Another crossing...
Children crosswalk sign


"ONO" dental clinic... lol

Mister Donut

Side street near Higashi-kurume

Our favorite local lunch spot...

...and of course there's a McDonald's

Another side street near Higashi-kurume

Doesn't seem like this clinic is too busy judging from the look of the local dentition
