Welcoming the Year of the Snake
2012 We're finishing these past 3 weeks in a fog of coughing kids, interrupted sleep all through the night, humidifiers, nebulizer for asthma, medicine, spit ups, and a tad of fever here and there. That's not including multiple doctor visits with one late night ER visit for Aila. Both T and ...
Poor little silver fishy! I hope the mechanic can make her well again.

Aila love love
I know I need to get back on track updating about Aila's progress. I treasure what I have recorded for Tesla, and want as much as I can for Aila. Must do, but overall, I am simply enjoying her every moment, every movement, every grin. She is very active now, constanty twisting out of my arms, o...

My favorite place in Helsinki? The waterfront walk near where the Coast Guard/Navy ships are docked, a row of 1920s art deco aparments, a dog park, and wild roses growing along the path. Lovely.

OH: Helsinki Style
Great to see Designers Timo, Aamu, Harri, Eero and others, Aalto's home and Ateljée Finne representing our fine city. My daily 1km swims in summer are at the uimastadion. Helsinki, I love you so.
I *love* how a box of tissues/kleenex is provided on the table next to the hot sauce/paste. ;o)

While I am at work...
Gran Marie, who cares for Aila while I am at work, sends me pretty much everyday a cute picture that makes my day. I see what they are up to, and know Aila is in such loving hands. I've been saving them on my desktop, viewing them from time to time. These pictures are so precious to me. Gran Mar...

I went through a serious Laura Ingles Wilder/Little House on the Prairie phase circa 1978-1982 and part of that was asking/begging my mom to sew me dresses *just like* the Gunne Sax dress with 1880s style sleeves. The local 6th grade Van Halen fans decided that I needed to be beat up in a ravine for being a freak.
Here I am 30 years later and I still LOVE that dress & style.
Mena, the dress is lovely.

Hi Mie,
I am glad that the catheter and bag are out/off safely and successfully, and that your bladder is on the road to recovery.

Ceeeeeeeelebration time good times!
For me, this is a huge milestone. Today, my catheter (pee bag contraption) was removed with success. Tadaaaaa! I can't believe I am putting this on my public blog, but after what I've been through, this is a memorable moment for me, so it's important. I tried not to complain too much, and focuse...
Hi Mie,
Congrats on the new littlest Yaginuma! I am so glad that you and the little one are both safe after a harrowing delivery.

Wow. They say each birth is different but I think we got quite the example of that. It took me several days to piece together what happened, as I emerged from somewhat of a twilight zone, recovering from surgery, but holding a healthy beautiful girl. It's been taking time to emotionally proces...
