So this weekend we made a mad trip to Osaka (about 250 miles south) with infant in hand. Yes, the American Embassy thinks traveling with a two week old is hassle free! Fortunately, Zion did great and we were able to successfully apply for his passport, social security number, and American birth certificate (it turns out if you don't apply for the birth certificate while in the foreign country your child was born in, you cannot do it from the US which would eventually mean another trip to Japan just for a paper!).
We also were able to see the famous aquarium down there. That was a lot of fun. They have this huge tank filled with all sorts of fish and then the rest of the building spirals around it with other attractions on the sides. Interesting. We also went on a HUGE Ferris wheel. Heath has a thing about going on them and gets all excited when we see one.
July 22nd is the day we fly home! Mark in on the calendar! We are heading home soon! So excited about that. Now we are cleaning out our apartment, which is a large task.
Life with Zion is great. I love staying home with him. We are tired a lot of the time, but he is so worth it! We cannot wait to introduce him to all our people back home!

Thanks for the update! We can't wait to meet Zion! Now that you have a date you can start the countdown!
Yay, it's so fun to see new pictures! Can't wait to see you guys!
That's a good-lookin' mama with a couple of cute guys in tow. : )
I'm glad you're all doing well. C and I won't be here when you get back. That means even if you have a big party with everyone else while we're gone, you have to have ANOTHER one with us. : )
