Snack in our “yard”

I like to be outside but I didn’t want to bother with the walk to the park again so we had our snack picnic outside in our “yard”. When I say “yard” I mean the 90 x 90cm plot of fake grass that Daddy put together. It was just the right size for us and […]

At the park

Daddy and I went to the park today and had a great time! There was nobody there so we had the whole park to ourselves. That was good news because that meant that I got to use the swing as much as I liked! After a lot of swinging, Daddy and I sat down in

Spoon key, chair lock

I’ve watched Mommy and Daddy use keys and locks before, so I figured that I should try to use my own keys on my own locks. It just so happens that the handle of my spoon fits perfectly into the slot in my chair. Nothing opened or unlocked, but it was worth a shot. More

Helping around the house

I like to be helpful when I can. Mommy had to work today so it was just me and Daddy at home. I thought it was the perfect time to help around the house.

Bowing

Greetings are very important in Japanese culture, so Mommy and Daddy have been teaching me to say “Good morning”, “Good afternoon”, and “Good evening”. Since I’m still not speaking they are also teaching me to bow. Today I finally picked it up. For some reason I chose to do my first greeting bow with a

Mommy taking me home from school

Even though I’m always very expressionless when being picked up from school by Mommy, of course I am very happy. I like school a lot, but there is no place like home! I can’t wait to get there!

Buggy ride

When we go for our walks at nursery school, the older kids get to walk, but us little ones ride in the buggy. I can’t wait until I can walk on my own. It looks like a lot of fun! Imagine all the new things I’ll be able to see!

Hippo slide

I’m getting much better and putting shapes in the holes of my activity toys. But after a while that can get a little boring. So I came up with a new way to play with my hippo slide by putting my Lego Duplo people into the shaped holes and letting them slide out. I discovered

Brushing my teeth before bed

I really like brushing my teeth! The toothpaste tastes really good! So I eagerly brush my teeth right before bed. The hard thing is getting me to let go of my toothbrush when I’m done. Like I said, the toothpaste tastes really good.

Putting my chair away

I try to be a good boy and put away my things when I’m done with it, but I just can’t seem to get around to it when it comes to my books and toys. Because you never know when I might revisit them. But I use my chair on a schedule, so I know

Nap to bubbles

I fell asleep during our walk today at school. But I popped awake when I realized everyone was playing with bubbles!

Rattle on the way to school

I didn’t want to let go of my rattle this morning, so I brought it with me on the way to school, rattling all the way. I obediently handed it over to Daddy when we got to school so that he could take it back home for safe keeping. Mommy made it for me and

Brushing and sweeping

I like to help Daddy brush his teeth. It only seems fair since he helps me brush my teeth. But I think I have more fun helping him. I like it so much that some mornings I remind him that it is time to brush his teeth. I’ll make urgent noises and point to the
