TV

There is this rectangular object in our living room that has a lot of pictures and makes a lot of sounds. Apparently it is called “TV”. Mommy and Daddy play my nursery rhymes and songs on it as they sing to me. And they turn it on for the kids shows in the afternoon. I’m […]

Day time naps

Most of my daytime naps start off like this. I’m so big and heavy, that Mommy needs to use a baby carrier to carry me for long periods of time. Her poor back is suffering a lot because of my size. Just carrying and rocking me is quite a workout for her, so she needs

Tummy breaks

Once I rolled over the first time, it was easy to do it a second time…and a third, and fourth…let’s just say I’m rolling over all the time now. And I mean all the time. Mommy and Daddy turn away for a second and the next thing they know, I’m on my tummy. I still

Relaxing is a group effort

Mommy put me down for awhile to let me relax and have some quiet time. And then she lay down beside me to take a break as well. Daddy saw us taking a break and decided to jump in on the activity (or lack thereof). I guess relaxing is a group effort in this family.

Crying

Yep, I’m crying. Why? I don’t know…I’m a baby. I just cry sometimes. I know it is hard for Mommy and Daddy who try to figure out what’s wrong and try to help me calm down, but sometimes I just have to cry for no reason. It’s like baby law or something.

Found my feet

Well, I found my feet. I always knew they were down there, and I’ve seen them time to time, but I finally got a hold of them. I still haven’t figured out what they’re for, though. I kick them around and thump them on the floor, but they don’t seem to be very useful. I

Wake up, sleep, wake up

Sometimes it takes me a couple of tries to wake up. I wake up, stir and stretch a bit, and then fall back asleep. Only to wake up again a few minutes (or moments) later in a worse mood than before. Waking up is not my strong point. Come to think of it, neither is

Midnight feeding

I am proud to say that it has been a long time since I cried throughout the night. For the past couple months I’ve slept quite well, waking only for feeding or burping. I easily sleep for 4 hours at a time, but sometimes I can sleep 6 hours before I wake up hungry. When

Mommy’s Birthday

Daddy and I threw a surprise birthday party for Mommy today! She was very surprised and happy! We had to rush it because we did it during Daddy’s lunch break. We couldn’t do it at night because of my bedtime and my mood is not always great in the evening. Still, a noon party worked

Excited

I can confidently say that I’m a happy boy. I have a great life and a great family. Just realizing that makes me smile and I get really excited. When I get excited I have flail my arms and legs because I have no better way to express that happiness. I rarely see grown ups

Growing hair

My hair is still growing thick and long. Look at it now! Wow! It might be time for a haircut soon.

Fight with sea otter

My sea otter friend and I are usually on good terms. We play together, keep each other company, and listen to each other (I listen to his music and he listens to my coos). But sometimes we fight as friends sometimes do. I think we’re playing and then it turns into a fight. As usual,

More things to put in my mouth

My gums are so itchy recently. I was told that this is called “teething”. I don’t like it. I’m drooling all the time all over the place and I have to, and I mean have to, put everything I get my hands on into my mouth to chew on. Aaaaahhh. So itchy!

Getting use to rolling over

I don’t get why it took me so long to roll over. It is so easy now. I can’t believe I wasted so much time on my back and side when I could have easily just rolled over. It is so simple now. I just shift my weight and there I am on my belly.

Sushi

Mommy and Daddy treated themselves to some good sushi tonight. Usually they order Uber Eats sushi from a 100 yen sushi place. You know those conveyor belt sushi places. But the decided to splurge and get sushi from a higher end place. I must admit that the spread looked really good. I even made a

Spoon practice

As I get bigger, I have to start preparing to eat solid foods. But before I do that, I have to practice using a spoon. So we started that practice today. My first spoonful ended up running down my chin, but I got the hang of eating with a spoon very quickly. We were practicing

Holoholo observation

I used to fall asleep during holoholo. The vibrations of the stroller used to put me to sleep but recently I stay up to look out at the world. There are so many things to look at!

Being eaten alive

My whole body is covered with softness. My arms, legs and cheeks are like daifuku mochi. I can’t blame Mommy and Daddy for always chewing on my arms and legs. Being eaten alive is just a part of being this cute!

I don’t know

As a baby there are a lot of things that are just decided for me. What I eat, what I where, when I sleep, where I go, etc.. There was a time when I thought I wanted to be a little more independent and have a say in my life. But it turns out that
