I applaud you! I went one week cold turkey in Japan and it was really, really hard! My god, the white bread is EVERYWHERE. And the white rice. And SO many sweets? How are these people living to be like 2,000!?

She's pretty cute, I bet she is a celebrity no matter where you end up next! :) I was NOT prepared for all the kawaii going on here though, and since Vesper has blue eyes there are many days where suddenly a bunch of little kids are pointing at her eyes, pointing at their eyes, asking me questions that I can't understand, probably something like 'WTF is wrong with your baby's eyes?' Enjoy your time left in Japan!

I've been there! In Germany, in the Netherlands, in Norway...even in, dare I say it, CANADA! And now in Japan. Sorry you're having one of those days! Just so you know, you win the mothering award on this one. Something similar happened to me recently, but I wasn't polite. V was crawling around in the airport at our gate flying to somewhere I can't remember. And a woman with some kind of accent that I couldn't decipher came and told me how VERY dirty the floor of the airport was (like I don't know) and how I should really really please hurry pick the baby up. I said 'She's fine, don't worry.' And smiled. And she went on, about how very VERY dirty and the germs and the sickness and I said, still smiling 'it's good for her immune system.' And she offered to hold her for me, as though the reason I had my child on the dirty terrible floor si because I'm too lazy to just hold her. So I snapped and said 'If you're the person sitting next to us on the flight, you'll be glad she has used up some energy here. She's fine. DO NOT touch her. And for the record, she's never been sick and I let her touch filth all the time.' She walked away, judging I'm sure. Hang in there! But seriously, wtf is up with cauliflower prices?! Of all the veggies? And that's a staple in our menu!

We really have so much in common vegeater! I truly feel that sprining for the newborn insert for my Ergo was a really good purchase. I love the my wrap, but when I take more athletic walks I feel like she is more secure and I am more comfortable in the lower back department with the Ergo. I plan to rock all the earring until she realizes her hand is attached to her arm! :) And babywearing TOTALLY burns cals...because if you're sweating, you're working out, right? RIGHT!?

I've been devoted to Yogamazing for a while! So convenient! Let me know how this goes, I don't have the resolve to make this resolution yet and I only have ONE! :)

Looks great Shana! I'm loving plaid, but I don't have those little tiny legs to make those tiny shorts and leggings look good! I'm on the hunt for some pooch friendly jeans today to pair with some plaid!
