Walking around the shopping center

After such an exciting day I couldn’t settle down, so Mommy and Daddy took me to the shopping center to walk around and burn some energy. It worked because I got too tired to walk and wanted to be carried. And when Daddy carried me I stole his glasses again. That’s just what I do […]

The NerdHerd

Daddy’s high school friends (the NerdHerd) and their families stopped by today. They try to get together whenever Daddy is back on the island. I had fun when they came over last summer and when I met everyone for the first time. But I wasn’t very social then. I just kind of did my own

Good morning Lauren

When I woke up this morning I wasted no time and started to play with Lauren right away. I didn’t even bother changing my clothes or eating breakfast. I wanted to play first. Even after I was fed and got ready I still wanted to play with her so I kind of always found away

Glasses

I stole Daddy’s glasses again. I don’t need them to see, and they actually may be making my eyesight worse. It is a fashion statement for me. I know they are Daddy’s but I look so much better in them!

Daddy entertaining me from the truck bed

We were running some errands and one stop was pretty short so I just waited in the car. I was being a very good boy but I started to get bored. Luckily Daddy got back to the truck just in time and started to entertain me from the truck bed.

Matching cards and moving on

I did some card matching again today. I often start off very strong and then slowly lose interest and wander off to do something else. That’s what happened today. I moved on to grabbing jackets and such and dragging them around the house. I wasn’t putting them away or anything. This was not tidying up.

More poi please

I surprised everyone when I didn’t want to eat poi the first few days of this visit. I ate so much during my summer visit that they thought I would be thrilled to have the chance to eat it again. But I kept refusing it. But then I remember what it was and once I

Climbing equals making people nervous

I’m a pretty good climber and people don’t realize that I don’t fall very often and when I do, I fall in a safe way. But I don’t blame them for being nervous when I climb things like the back of Grandpa’s chair. I may not fall, but I didn’t really think it through because

Dining table communication

Even from my first visit to Hawaii, I enjoyed sitting with everyone at the big dining table and joining in the mealtime conversation. I’ve been sitting at the dining table a lot more this trip. Pretty much for every meal. I love it when I can communicate with my cousins there. They talk to me,

In the pool fully clothed

Grandma and Grandpa’s house has a huge backyard and it is so easy just to step out and enjoy the outdoors. Back in Japan we actually have walk a bit to get to parks in order to run around or just bask in the sun. Now all that fun is just outside the door. I

Airing out clean laundry

I’ve heard the phrase “airing out dirty laundry”, but why would anyone want to do that? Wouldn’t that make the air dirty? I much prefer airing out clean laundry. It is much more sanitary and it smells fresh!

Putting family to work

One of the benefits of having so much family in the house is that I can ask a lot of people to read to me or to entertain me. All I have to do is walk up to them with a book and they’ll offer to read to me. All I have to do is

Back to the heliport

I just can’t get enough of the helicopters. At my request, Grandpa took me to the heliport again. Now that I know it is there, I know what to ask for.

Step stool become climb stool

I started to climb the step stool today and found that I can do it pretty easily. I get the feeling that not everyone is happy that I can do this. I sense a lot of nervousness.

Choo-choo train

I got to see a huge choo-choo train today. I was taking a nap and Mommy and Daddy took the opportunity to go out for a bit. Grandma and Grandpa were babysitting and took care of me when I woke up. I was in a pretty good mood and well behaved. As a treat they

Seeing a lot of cars on a walk

We went for a short walk to the store and I got so excited when we entered the parking lot because there were so many cars. I still got excited when leaving the store and seeing the parking lot of cars for the second time. What can I say? I just really like cars.

Standing on a chair

I’m very good at climbing up on things so I tried to show off to everybody by climbing up onto one of the dining room chairs. Instead of impressing them I just made everyone nervous.

Checkin in on cousins

I’m constantly checking in on my cousins. I’ll be having a lot of fun playing or exploring and then all of a sudden I’ll go and check in on them and see what they are doing. Usually I barge into their room and interrupt whatever they were up to. They are so sweet and pretty
