Japan...

Hi! 7 days...yes 7 days til we are back in the GOOD Ol'  USA!! Can't wait...I know we have only been a little over a month, but believe me..it's long enough! Not that we don't really enjoy Hiroshima, but we are ready for our own beds,(the ones here are seriously harder than the tile floor at home) and pillows and food and car, oh I could go on and on and on.. lol! We have been here for this crazy amount of time, it's not long enough to really settle in, but too long to feel like vacation! Brian has been here for 3 months and has changed quite a bit! If you don't recognzie him when we get home, it may be because he has a new addiction to Pinterest and also aquired a murse (man purse for those not familiar with the term)! This is quite a different Brian than the {manly, "I hate computers"} Brian of the past!!
His team is not in the play offs...can you believe they don't start here for another 2 weeks?! Crazy!! And we aren't sure if we are coming back next year! The team has to extend the offer-sometime in the next month or so!
I took Averie on my first bike ride today...a little wobbly at first, but great after that! She had ridden with Lauren on a few rides, but I hadn't saddled up til today! It was so fun and such a nice change from walking everywhere (I felt that breeze in my hair and i never looked back)! Don't think Jagger is quite ready to ride (and I am def not brave enough to drive with him in the infant seat) but if we come back next year, he will be perfect size!
Anyways, we are sooo ready to be home..I keep going over all the millions of things that need done once we drop the suitcases on the floor! Mom is coming to see us and help for a week, so that will be soo nice to have an extra set of arms to snuggle my babies while i un pack, grocery shop, get ready for Halloween etc!! This year, Averie is going to be a unicorn....not sure if she will be the animal itself or be riding one! Her auntie Alyssa has a costume that Nana is bringing, so once we get it, we will accessorize as needed! Not sure what Baby Jagger is going to be...hope there are some costumes left when we get home! If not, we can get creative!
Here's to a great week/weekend! Lots of Love from our last week in Japan!

Sweet sister!! Talking to Jag after noticing he was watching her play
