September 6th....Mika turns 4 years old today!
Mika turned 4 today!! We celebrated by going out for a quick lunch and a nice dinner. We went to Awase Grace to look for a new dresser for Max and we ate lunch at the yummy soup restaurant there. While we were eating lunch, Mika noticed the Baby Room video screen in the restaurant and could see all the toys. After we finished eating lunch, she begged us to go to the "baby room" and let her play while we shopped. The baby room is a play area for kids to stay in while their parents shop at the furniture store. They have child care employees that play with the kids and it's lots of fun. There are video screens around the store so you can see your child playing while you shop. We kept looking at the video screens VERY often, but everytime we checked, she was happy and playing. She stayed about 30 minutes and then we picked her up. Today was the first time for her to stay with a "babysitter" and it was on her 4th birthday!! We're very proud of her because she's normally very clingy and doesn't like to be away from me. Of course it helped that they were also playing the "My Neighbor Totoro" movie in there. She loves that movie.
Max gave her Disney Princess dresses for her birthday! She loves them.

Happy Birthday, Mika!! You are such a big girl. Can't believe she's 4. I would love having a store babysit for me while I shopped. What a unique concept!!
