We were busy busy busy in the U.S. for the month we were there. We got to see a lot of things and Lilia experienced some big firsts. She had her first international flight - or any kind of flight for that matter, had her first dip in the ocean, sat in a high chair for the first time, and even had her first car accident! ( We were rear-ended by a lady on her cell phone... great.) All in all it was a wonderful trip and I already miss seeing my friends and family there. It's great to be back in Japan too, though. I don't know how often I will make it back there, but we really made the most of this trip and had some good times!

Here is Lilia in the ocean for the first time! Does she like it? Well she didn't cry anyway...

Beach babes!

Look at that junk in the trunk!

Here is my mom and my grandpa at the Coca Cola museum in Atlanta

Shout out to Japan, of course!

We went to the GA Aquarium too.

Lilia LOVED it. I think there is just something about fish and babies. She was fascinated.
