December 2023

Sunday mornings are awesome. We can relax and there is no rush to go anywhere. We just hang out on the couch, watch TV, and eat breakfast. All days should start off like this.

We got together with my friend again today and started off with a trip to Costco. We all needed some things and the grownups were picking up sushi for dinner. It was not as entertaining for us kids, but we were okay with the wait because of my Super Simple Songs app. My friend also

I’m getting to be quite independent. I like to do a lot of things on my own. Recently I noticed Daddy using the shoehorn in the morning so I wanted to copy him. I don’t quite get how to use it, but I plan to work on it. I am also quite good and zipping

We had a school recital today. We had been practicing for quite some time and I was getting pretty good at the singing and dancing. But I don’t really like these events. There are too many people and too much pressure. And there are costumes to wear. As you can see, I actually made a

It was rainy today so we couldn’t go out for our walk. We stayed in instead and had indoor activities, which were also a lot of fun. We did some coloring and played with stickers. We also did some puzzles. Of course I chose the puzzle with vehicles.

We got home from a weeknight dinner out and I was in a great mood despite it being past my bedtime. I’m very chatting during my baths and even after I kept talking and singing. Tonight I sang the potato song. I do a pretty good job of memorizing the words and even the dance that the potatoes

Mommy’s friend from when she lived in Perth was visiting Japan so we went out to dinner with her and her family. I was quite well behaved, mainly because there was so much good food. I had my first taste of really good (expensive) wagyu beef. It was so good it just melted in your mouth. I entered into

We had another nice walk to the park and once we got there we just kept on walking. But then, of course, walking was not enough so we started another game of chase. We even came up with variations like running backwards while still playing chase. It was a lot of fun!

We all had a lot of fun running around and playing chase at the park. As usual, there was confusion about who was “it” but we still enjoyed running away/after each other.

Usually I am very lazy and like to be carried to school. That kind of works out because we are usually cutting it close on time and can’t wait for my short legs to get us to school on time. But every so often I prefer walking. This morning I was in a very energetic mood and wanted

On our walk today we went to the 11th floor of the prefectural office building. It was really cool up there. We could see very far and everything look so tiny. While up there I asked my teacher a lot of questions. Recently I ask a lot of “why” questions. Today I asked her why trains go. She answered that they

It looks like we were not the only ones to set up our Christmas tree. There was a Christmas tree in the elevator hall of my nursery school. I still like mine better, but it was still quite pretty.

Today was a rainy day so we spend it indoors. We started off with some Christmas songs. It may not look it, but I did enjoy it. We also played with clay. It was quite sticky, but I had fun making different shapes with my clay. At school my teachers were complimenting my haircut and I told them

I’m not fond of haircuts. But I do know that it is necessary. I don’t like my long hair in my eyes. Mommy and Daddy give me treats and rewards when I get a haircut. I get to watch YouTube and eat sweets. It makes it a little more bearable.

One of my favorite weekend breakfasts is pancakes and sausages. I love eggs too, but pancakes seem to be my breakfast of choice recently.

When out at dinner tonight I was feeling really happy and in a really good mood. Of course, I ate a lot and enjoyed everything, but I also had fun playing. I was making Mommy sleep and wake up.

Today I helped Daddy set up our outdoor Christmas lights. It looks pretty good! We went for our usual Christmas tree design and added a little more.
