It is important to do stretches. First of all, I don’t want to pull a muscle or anything. I’m very active and am moving almost all the time. Warmups and stretches are a very important part of my day. Another reason to do stretches is to increase my reach. If I stretch a little every […]
You know how I like peekaboo? Well, I like “inai inai ba” just as well. It’s pretty much the same thing. Unlike peekaboo, there is a bit more of a build up to the great reveal.
How do you like my imitation of a sphinx? Not bad, huh? Sorry, no riddles for you at this point. I’ll work on it.
I figured out why baby clothes all have buttons at the bottom. It’s to prevent babies from stripping down and going naked. I know clothes are cute on babies, but I think we were meant to be bare and free! I must rid myself of this cumbersome covering!
When I get hungry I am REALLY hungry! The only thing on my mind is nursing. It is sometimes frustrating when I get hungry before my feeding time. I know where to get my food, but I’m not allowed to eat yet. All I can do is scream, “I am HUNGRY!”
We went shopping and found a nice outfit for me. Mommy and Daddy were having trouble with the sizes because I’m not yet 3 months old, but I was obviously too big for the 3M size. Even the 6M size looked like it would be a little too small on me or only be good
Daddy and I discovered a new way to play hide-and-seek without having to get up and run around. He basically hides behind the mirror and arches of my play mat and I have to find him. It sounds simple, but it’s no. It sounds boring, but it’s not. I love it! It is so much
I’m a bit of a sportsman. I can’t stand staying still and like moving around a lot so I decided to pick up a few sports. Not only are they fun, but they help me keep fit. I’ve been doing boxing for quite some time now. I like to punch the toys hanging from my
I have a reputation for not liking to be put down for naps, opting to be held when I sleep. I can sleep in my crib at night, but during the day when I’m put down for my nap I snap awake in a bad mood. Grandma suggested that I try napping on my tummy,
You’ve seen how talkative I can be when chatting with Daddy. But that is not always the case. Sometimes I’m pretty relaxed and chill during our chats. I just like to sit in his lap and listen to his voice. Instead of giving him my attention, a lot of times I like to look at
Some mornings I’m just awake and happy from the get go. Other mornings it takes a while for me to wake up. I start my morning like this: Then I go through this: And then end up like this: If you ask me, it’s worth the slow process!
I met my uncle for the first time today! He is a teacher in Tokyo and came home for the summer break. He was very excited to meet me for the first time. He was very happy to see me and was instantly infatuated by me. At first he gave me my space, but kept
I’m usually in my best moods right after I eat. I either drift off into a deep peaceful sleep or I am very alert and responsive. This morning was the latter. I was alert, responsive, and happy, but also busy digesting my meal. What a good start to the day!
I really enjoy my mat time! I enjoy it so much that I get too excited and start kicking a lot. So much that I sometimes kick myself right off my play mat. I don’t get hurt, but I do get surprised. The floor is hard and cold, which can be quite a shock. But
Why so dramatic, you ask? We are forced to take refuge in our bedroom. Nah, it’s nothing like that. Every apartment in our building is getting new air conditioners installed so we are just hanging out in the bedroom until the installation is done. It is a different environment to spend the day in, hence
Even though I can’t hold my head up on my own yet, I’m starting to practice sitting on my own. I’m getting tired of just lying around all day and I want to be able to see more of the world. I practiced sitting on the couch and it wasn’t that bad. I much prefer
Yep, it is still really hot in the early morning, but it is nice to be outside. I was feeling a bit cooped up this morning and could not settle down, so Mommy took me for a walk and we went to the park. As you can see the walk was very calming and it
The more I do tummy time, the more eager I am to start crawling. I’m practicing my leg work so that when I finally figure out this crawling thing, then I’ll be able to attain max speed right away. Man, Mommy and Daddy will have their hands full watching me once I become mobile.
Summer in Japan is really hot! We’ve been experiencing 36°C (96.8°F) weather for the past week. But today didn’t feel as hot in the late afternoon, so Mommy and I took advantage of the cool(er) weather and headed to the park. It was still hot, but it is nice to be outside!
