Japanese Soul Food

A new Intern joined our team and for her welcome lunch we brought her to Daichan, a restaurant serving Japanese soul food/home-style Japanese comfort food located in Studio City.  This is one of my favorite lunch places and today was my first time back since I got pregnant.  Oh, how I missed this poki bowl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Napping Like a Champ


Like Mommy & Daddy, our Little Bundle of Joy sleeps and naps like a champ :-)  He sleeps 9 - 11 hours at night and takes 2 – 3 naps during the day.  So incredibly thankful that he could sleep anywhere at any time.
