Some Japan Memories

Yes, these are my feet on vacation!
Michelle and I enjoyed a few quiet hours on the beach. It was a beautiful 70 degrees, the beach was white and sandy; and the water was so clear and blue. All I wanted to do was jump in and swim, but the water was too cold. Michelle and I had so much fun just sitting and talking.
One day we went to the aquarium. I loved the jelly fish. Little Vincent loves all fish. Oh and I saw the neatest fish ever; it's called a Cuttle Fish. It changes colors and skin textures to attract prey. I think I must have spent at least 20 minutes taunting it and making it react.
Michelle is doing great. Her baby Vivianne will be born on January 26th; it's about time she shows up. Michelle looks great and her attitude has been amazing. I am so incredibly impressed with her abilities as a wife and mother. She is so happy, you can't believe it. I've really missed her.
This little dude has become my best buddy. Everyday we play at the playground. We also sign to communicate. It has been such a wonderful bonding experience. I'm really going to miss the little guy. Michelle has been training me; therefore, I've been on Mommy Duty for the last two weeks. I get full control of him when she and Rob are in the hospital having Vivianne.
Well, I think I am a bad influence on the kid. This is me at 9:30pm giving him Ben and Jerry's. What could I do...he said please.
I have had so much fun here in Japan so far. Getting to know Rob and Vincent has been an amazing joy. My sister has a truly blessed life. We are all looking forward to holding the new bundle; she could only bring more love into an already loving household.
This is Shannon signing out for the time being. I will post more in a week or so.
