Noa’s first haircut!

Thank you Rumi-chan!! Noa’s ghey quotient is down by 10points.

It took a little longer than I thought (that and my main computer is broken!! arg!! :x) but it looks like we are slowly coming back on line here. I hope to be online by November 9th at the latest (perhaps you are reading this then??) We don’t have a computer to get our photos and videos on to, so give me a few more days on that one. Over the next few days I will be updating the site with new Noa pictures….

So what have you missed?

A new tooth (I call it misty)
8 steps sometimes more!
A move to Tokyo!
A new apartment!
His use of the word “Dada” which he calls anyone he likes
Lots of food excitement
Crazy little games which only he understands

Seriously… Noa is getting cuter by the minute. By why wouldn’t he? He comes from good stock.

davidandkiko.com is celebrating it’s 2 year anniversary this year (expect some surprises!9. I am not about to stop it now. Sorry for the downtime, but as this is one of the few ways we can keep in touch with everyone, I hope you continue to visit and watch Noa grow with us.

Love,

David & Kiko

Brian and Dada time

Brian gets to meet Noa as we go shopping for 5hps without Mom. Dada is Noas current word of choice, but this was his longest trip without Kiko.

Celebrating the ghey since 2006

In honour of one of my best friends getting married, I present Noa in his very fabulous Thomas and James jacket. (we may or may not own that jacket, and this picture may or may not have been taken in the store while I dressed him up, took a picture, and ran away from the angry Japanese store clerks.)

I wish I had my camera!

I have been extremely fourtunate to be part of the University of Toronto’s delegation to Japan this year. Apart from having a fabulous opportunity to meet some very nice people in the U of T’s administration, I have also been fortunate enough to meet with some of Japan’s top academics at some of the best universities in Japan.

Other memorable events have included an alumni event at the Canadian Embassy which saw alumns like Agnes Chan and Tak there. Nice.

It has also given me the opportunity to live like some of my consultant friends do, and experience the nomad lifestyle in some wonderful hotels throughout Japan (Osaka, Kyoto and Tokyo to be exact!)

What’s next? How about the website being back up, and pictures of Noa! (He can now take about 8 steps… yeah!)
Look! It’s Agnes Chan (neat…) but wait… she’s upside down! (weird)

On the train in Tokyo

Apparently Noa has developed the Japanese ability to sleep on trains!
ps. We found a house! Its swell!

Baby Awesome is still Awesome

Sorry, this picture is so good it deserves a repeat.

(This may or may not have something to do with the fact that I still don’t have my computer and therefore cannot get to the pictures on my camera. maybe.)

Baby Awesome

Somewhere in Tokyo

and you complain that you have no pictures on my site!

Canada Round-up

See below for what happens when you don’t visit davidandkiko.com

Why do you make the baby Noa cry? Does Baby Awesome (click that for some awesomeness) deserve this?

(No… I’m just joking. he’s crying because I beat him for being too cute.)

Although we still haven’t found a place to settle in yet here in Tokyo, that doesn’t mean we have a whole lot of excitement to share from our trip back to Canada. (ie. I still haven’t been able to get our photos off the camera yet. So these are a bit older…)

How about some Niagara Falls action? (one picture by me, one by Kiko)
