Breakfast Time

Mia's eating with her own hands sometimes. Sometimes not. The super-messy begins. Oh! And if she drops anything she'll go after that floor food well over the good germ free food from the table any day. Actually, anything on the floor now is "floor food."

Things I've pulled out of Mia's mouth:

• Hair
• Fingernail clippings
• Paper
• More paper
• Duct tape
• Hardened old rice

An Evening Trip to Yupika in Ono 小野市のスーパー銭湯：ゆぴか

Where's my FOOD! In the Yupika restaurant.

On Thursday evening we were able to sneak out and take a bath together. I talked Yuko into going to Yupika in Ono, about an hours drive from Nishinoimya on the Sanyo highway. I really wanted to go here because of it's rural location and the magnificent design of the building... not to mention the great water in the baths. Mia made friends with four ladies who went in at the same time as Yuko and Mia did. We all ended up chatting for a while in the resting room after exiting the baths. Letting Mia crawl around the big room was fun and she got some exercise knocking her out for the car ride home. Everyone smiles when seeing little Mia and we've met some really nice people because of her.

IT'S TOO HOT DADA!

In front of Yupika, like many super-sento there's a free footbath (足湯) that we all enjoyed. Well it was a bit hot for Mia as you can tell by her reaction!

Chubby footies and hot, hot mineral water.

Oh, and thanks for tea! :D

Odd sleeping habits.

Mia now travels in her sleep. Last night she crisscrossed the room a few times. Every time I woke up she was in a different position even once right on top of me! Nap time is the same as this photo from yesterday proves.
