Update 3/11/09

Starting last week Junior and Hiroe joined a baby tumbling class in Edina. Here are a few shots from the first class...

































































Not sure... but below might be Junior's first love interest. I guess she only knows how to crawl backwards, which left Junior asking, "Wait, where are you going???"












The second class. He was a little less sure of the swing this time.



























Here we are at the Chirashizushi meal prepared by Hiroe. It was excellent!


















And a quick photo of us with Hiroe's girl's day dolls.













Now it's on to St. Patrick's day decorations. Maybe I should have included a Guiness in the photo.












Last weekend Hiroe signed up for skiing lessons. Initially she wasn't too excited about it.


















Picking up the paperwork.













Renting the skis.












Trying them on.













And her instructor. It was a two day class with a personal instructor.


















Staying cautiously in control.













Getting better.













Riding up the lift.


















Starting to enjoy it.













Having a great time!













Oh, and the ski chalet had corn dogs too. Hiroe felt they were of quite high quality.












Meanwhile, out on the snowboard hill, some of the kids were catching air.



























Back at home, Junior was checking out the outside activities. I think he, like his father, is sooo ready for spring. I hear it's coming in the next day or two.
