Today I spent a bunch of time hanging out with the boy while the wife was packing up a good deal of the kitchen but when we headed out of the house I purposefully wanted to get some pictures of things that were not my son.  I had nothing in particular in mind but figured I might be able to get a couple of shots because it was a beautiful day and we were gonna grab some stuff at Lawson and have lunch in the park. Here’s a shot of some shoes I bought for the wife when she was pregnant because she couldn’t wear heels, just liked the colors (but the “baby car” wasn’t supposed to be in the shot…) :

wifey airs

With the next few pictures I did something I don’t think I’ve done on here before really and that is edit the pictures.  I pretty much just tweaked the colors or contrast because all of them felt a little off for some reason or another.  Normally I don’t like doing anything outside of the camera but I’m fairly pleased with the results anyway.

First, some flower:

After we finished up lunch we headed over to Unoki to get some stuff for dinner and there were a couple of interesting wall/plant combos that I came across:

That was pretty much it for me today, just played with MJ and did some packing.  We got word this evening that we’ve been approved for the apartment up in Saitama so it seems that everything is still on track for us to be out of here on the 7th.  Still have a bunch of packing to do but most of my personal stuff is boxed except my PC and 360 and other necessities but that can wait until much closer to the deadline. Dang, last week of September, can’t believe how fast this year has gone by.

Baby watch day 6: (pt.1) labor induction…

March 14, 2010

They say that it’s good to walk around, it can help in kick-starting labor and so the wife’s been walking around a lot lately.  We’ve been trying a couple other things like last night I gave her a little pressure point massage action that is supposed to help as well… nothing.  Today we took a big walk from 多摩川 to 自由が丘 in order to hopefully facilitate labor and to get some raspberry leaf tea that is supposed to do the same thing… nothing so far.  We’re gonna go out for another walk probably after I finish this post…

It was a beautiful day and I took some pictures along the way, today’s theme was “color!”:

set phaser to fun!

not really coy koi...

more pictures of flowers...

more flowers pt. 2

it's spring, can you blame me?

Streets of Jiyudelphia

When we stopped in Denenchofu, so that the wife could take a breather, we sat down on the benches next to the little pond here on the west side of the station.  I pulled out the mini-tripod and my little remote and busted off a couple shots.  This one was a keeper! I have no idea what I was looking at but, the wife’s expression is awesome!  It looks totally fake but I promise you, it was not.  She saw a fish attack another fish and this is the face she made, priceless!

what the?!

So, I think it’s time for another walk, I’ll do the next post about white day when we get back, unless the walk works…
