I can go down!

Here's QP-chan turning herself onto her stomach so that she can slide down. She had fun. Pinga had to be on close watch though, of course. 

On the swing

While Coco-chan was taking a morning nap, QP-chan had fun at the park. She was on the swing. 

Leaving for Tokyo

After the good bye hugs, Momo-chan left with the ANA person and fifteen tear old girl who was using the same kids travel service as Momo-chan. Momo-chan didn't look back and just went for the security check. 

He must be half way to Tokyo now! 

Smoothie moment

All three of them had smoothie at the same time. 

Wait time

After checking in, Momo-chan was told to come back in an hour to be escorted to the gate. Twins had much energy so they let them our from the stroller and they were happily exploring the departure lobby. 

On the way to airport

Momo-chan was at school until lunch time and took flight to Tokyo this afternoon. They took a bus and a train and reached the airport. 

Suitcase!

While Coco-chan was taking a morning nap, QP-chan was checking the suitcase out. She took things out and sat on top of it like this. I totally understand you QP-chan. I like boxes, suitcases,and so on. 

Momo-chan's progress report

As it was last day for Momo-chan at school, he received progress report from his teachers. One of them was these pictures by Momo-chan. He indeed likes mango and did try yoga with Pinga. 

Twins meet baby Momo-chan

Pinga was casting baby Momo-chan videos on TV and twins were very curious about them. Momo-chan and Coco-chan have same kind of slim body but their faces are not so much alike. 

Momo-chan and QP-chan

They looked happy like this after dinner. 

Lime team

Momo-chan and Coco-chan were wearing same color today. Momo-chan called it "lime team."

The climbing twins

After the festival they went to play at a nearby playground. The twins both climbed up by themselves and almost rode the slider down too. It will be tough to keep an eye on them now. 

Strawberry festival

Today there was a festival in Vancouver's west end. Pingu went there with Momo-chan and the twins. It was great weather today and they enjoyed being outside. Momo-chan enjoyed the bouncing castle, popcorn and a horse carriage ride. 

Momo-chan lost his fourth tooth

Momo-chan used to complain that he hadn't lost any teeth. Well now it is going quickly and he lost two teeth this week. 

First place in running

Momo-chan came back with this ribbon and told Pingu and Pinga he became first with running competition. Good job Momo-chan! 

Pirates pitch

Them they go to each station with their classmates and their teacher. Momo-chan's first Station was this pirates pitch. They threw bean bags. 

Sports day

Momo-chan's school had a sports day. Kids wore red, blue, green or black to show support for their team. Momo-chan was assigned to blue team. First all the kids gathered at the gym like this. 

Stairs for the first time

Coco-chan was upset sitting in the stroller so Pinga picked him up and waa holding him in one hand and pushing the stroller with the other hand. She got tired and put him his shoes. So he went up the stairs a bit. 

Unhappy together

Twins are recovering from cold but they are still having runny nose and coughing. Pinga took a walk in the hope of them falling asleep. They were awake and unhappy but QP-chan fell asleep shortly after this. 

Summer dress QP-chan

QP-chan had a girl outfit today. It's a gift from Pinga's friend who is launching kids clothes shop. She is importing Korean kids fashion to Canada. So this dress is from Korea too. Very nice! 

By the pond

Finally twins are fever free. Coco-chan was close to normal and getting active again. QP-chan was not so well as Coco-chan with coughing and very runny nose. So they slept twice today. Pinga took them to Stanley Park. 

Super runny nose QP-chan

Coco-chan still has fever and QP-chan's nose was constantly running. She sneezed and there were nose bubbles like this. Poor twins... 

You clean, I cook!?

QP-chan was holding a cleaning tool while Coco-chan holding rice serving tool. I am looking forward to seeing them grow as they are so willing to help Pinga already. 

Sick Coco-chan

QP-chan is feeling better but of course now is Coco-chan's turn to have fever. Poor Coco-chan had high fever almost all day. Let's hope he can sleep ok during the night. 

What is in the oven?

Twins were curious why was the oven lit? What's inside? 

Face painting

After a long wait Momo-chan finally got his face painting, The lady was very skilled and Momo-chan selected a scorpion and a spider.

Midsummer food

The typical midsummer food in Sweden is herring, meatballs, salmon and potatoes. At this event there was not much of that but instead there was salmon BBQ which was very tasty.

Midsummer pole raising and dancing

A key part of midsummer festivities is the raising of the midsummer pole and the dancing around it. Momo-chan was not interested in dancing but instead stood in line for getting a face painting.

Vancouver midsummer festival

Pingu and Momo-chan went to attend the midsummer festival today. It is arranged by the Scandinavian Community Centre in Burnaby (east of Vancouver proper).

Sick QP-chan

QP-chan is having fever. She had huh fever and fell asleep like this after dinner. Poor QP-chan... 

West end no car day

They blocked off Denman street as it was no car day today. There were all kinds of stands there. Food, clothes, company ads, politician, banks, etc. 

Bath time

As Pingu is away on business trip, Momo-chan came to help out with bathing. 

Smoothie QP-chan

Pinga made smoothie. Twins know that it's tasty. QP-chan wanted to hold it herself and drink. 

Sweeping Coco-chan

Coco-chan stands on his tiptoes and getting things. This broom was one of those things. He enjoyed walking with it. 

Super rice QP-chan

Iron beads Momo-chan

When they came to pick Momo-chan up, he was working on iron beads. There seemed to be a choice between Wii and beads and he was into beads today. 

Drawing for the first time

While QP-chan is taking nap, Coco-chan tried drawing for the first time. He was looking at his five year old friend closely. 

Good to be twins

Pinga proposed to Coco-chan to push QP-chan and he did it like this. Then Pinga set it up so that QP-chan can push Coco-chan. 

Playtime at the church

They were at playtime at the church again. QP-chan and Momo-chan were observing a lot before they started playing. 

Active twins

Twins became more and more relaxed and they went closer to Momo-chan and others. Coco-chan liked hockey sticks a lot. 

Hockey time

Tuesday is a hockey day for Momo-chan. Twins have been not so happy taking a walk with Pinga so she decided to stay at the gym hall. Twins had fun watching and walking around. 

Twins don't sleep together so often so Pinga took this photo. QP-chan fell asleep at 1420 and QP-chan at 1440.

Dress QP-chan

QP-chan does not have many dresses but she was wearing one today. Coco-chan was curious and pulling up her skirt and she was doing that as well. 

Rolling down

Momo-chan wanted to roll down the hill and his friend followed him. Pinga wondered how come they don't get dizzy...
