Bedtime conversations

At bedtime, it usually takes me a long time to go to sleep. I like to talk to Daddy about all kinds of things while winding down and getting sleepy. This is just a sample of some of the interesting conversations that we have. Talking about watches, tow trucks, bedtime socks, bare belly. Talking about […]

Just laughing

Just laughing for no real reason. Isn’t that just the best reason?

Umi no Nakamichi – Hanami

We headed to Umi no Nakamichi for our traditional hanami pictures. Every year since Mommy was pregnant with me, we’ve been going to Umi no Nakamichi for cherry blossom viewing. We got to test out our wagon and it worked great. What a smooth ride! According to Daddy it was pretty easy to pull and

Happy Easter

Happy Easter everybody! Easter is not a big holiday here in Japan, but Nana and Papa always send a card as a reminder. And, look, I even got some spending cash too! Thank you! Even though it is Easter Sunday I was told that the Easter Bunny is very busy and he is going to

Bus to dinner

As I usually do, I asked if we could ride a bus today. We didn’t really have specific plans to, but Mommy and Daddy managed to arrange dinner plans that required a bus ride, which was awesome. Dinner was great! But the star was dessert! The restaurant had an ice cream bar that we took

Park in the spring

While at the park we found a ladybug. Which was very lucky because I had been looking for one since we got to the park. We weren’t too hopeful to find one but then while playing we just saw one land nearby. Then I followed it intently. Later Daddy and I played not-catch.

FaceTime hide and seek with Nana and Papa

During our FaceTime chat with Nana and Papa I started to disappear and wander off. So Nana and Papa started to do the same. When I came back, they came back. Then it naturally developed into a game. I would run off and when I looked back at the iPad, Nana and Papa were nowhere

Rain gear shopping

We decided that it was time for me to have some proper rain gear for when it rains. I’m getting to big to carry when it rains. Not only am I bigger and heavier, but trying to manage an umbrella to keep me dry is really hard for Mommy and Daddy. So if I have

Breakfast or dessert

We went out for breakfast today. But I must have ordered wrong because while I ordered toast and a hard-boiled egg, Mommy ordered what looked like a dessert. It was a pastry with ice cream on top. But it was only a mini order and of course she shared with me. We enjoy our “breakfasts”

Morning wheels

There isn’t a day when I don’t play with some wheels. Or a morning for that matter. This morning was no different. Well, until a delivery arrived with a new set of wheels. We got a wagon! It is not actually supposed to be to carry me. It is supposed to be to carry bags

Vending machine treat

As a treat for my last day of school, Mommy got me a special treat from the vending machine on our way home. I was so happy and excited! I think all the sugar went to my head because I became quite silly for the rest of the night.

Last day of the school year

Today was the last day of the school year. A lot of the day was just like any other day. We went to the park, we had a lot of fun, it was a great day. But I found out that my teacher will not be coming back next year. I was quite sad to

Talking to Caitie on my imaginary phone

I like to pretend that I have a phone like Mommy and Daddy do. I sometimes pretend to check things on it or talk on it. This morning when I went to school I got a call from Caitie, who is on one of my shows, and she asked me to greet people when I

Carrots in nose…almost

For some reason I felt like putting carrots into my nose. I know I’m not supposed to, but because I was told not to, I felt like doing it more. Why? Because I’m 2 going on 3. That’s just what we do.

Doctor Yellow sighting

We couldn’t go to the park today, but we still went for a walk. We went up to the prefectural office observation floor and look out onto the city. Then we were lucky enough to catch a glimpse of a Doctor Yellow train zooming by. It is a rare sighting and we were all very

Cooking

Even after a long day of school, I still have to cook when I get home. Oh, so busy.

Running in the park, no gymnastics

The weather was really nice today and we had a great time running in the park. Boy, did we run a lot. At school we had gymnastics class, but I chose not to participate. I’m not really sure why, but I just didn’t want to. I decided to stand on the sidelines and just cheer

Goodbye Aaron-sensei

As always we had a lot of fun during our weekly English lesson. But it was bittersweet because it was our last lesson with Aaron-sensei. He is moving and will not be able to teach us anymore. We will definitely miss him. I think I came out of my shell the most during our English

Watering plants at school

Before we started our walk we made sure to water our green pepper plant. We don’t have much at our school, especially because we are on the fourth floor of a building, but we try to take care of the plants that we have. I asked my teacher about it and she told me that
