I woke up pretty early today and announced that I wanted pancakes, so I helped Daddy make them. We FaceTimed with Nana and Papa and they watched me play a lot. But then I got upset because they were talking to Mommy and Daddy instead of focusing on me. After I made my feelings clear […]
When walking home with Daddy yesterday, we stopped by the convenience store for dinner and I ask Daddy to by me a Yakult drink as well. As it turns out, I was so full from dinner that I didn’t have room for Yakult, so I said “Mason drink tomorrow.” And sure enough, I drank it
Last night when lying in bed, trying to go to sleep, I had an interesting conversation with Mommy. I started calling her “Motchan”. Mommy asked why I was doing that and I said that her name was “Motchan”. When she asked what my name was, I told her that my name was “Penpen”. So now
It was another rainy day, so we stayed inside and did crafts instead of taking a walk. Today we played with clay. When playing with connecting blocks my friends and I got really excited when we made a passenger boarding bridge (jetway). We love vehicles so we can get really into building anything related to
Today I surprisingly ask Mommy to carry me on our walk to school. Somehow Mommy manage to carry me and see where she was going. It is getting harder and harder for her to carry me. Today was a little bit rainy so we couldn’t go on our walk. Instead we stayed inside and made
Just doing a model walk with with one hand casually in my pocket. Just because we are walking to school doesn’t mean we don’t have to me fashionable. We had gymnastics class today and I joined in on the fun. I finally came around to enjoying the class. We practiced the jump box and the
Look who is tall enough to wash his hands without using a step stool. This guy!
We had an evacuation drill at school today. I listened very intently because I’m always a bit nervous during these drills. I take them very seriously and am actually a little scared. I understand that we do this for a reason and that reason can be scary. Sometimes I shed a few tears as we
We all slept in this Sunday morning and it was great! We woke up refreshed and ready to face our last weekend day. I said I wanted to eat pancakes and then I said I wanted to make pancakes. So I did all the prep work and let Daddy work the range. I actually couldn’t
We visited the prefectural office at our request. We wanted to see the displays and train set. It was also way to hot to run around in the park.
Some mornings I wake up, ask to watch TV, sit down and eat my breakfast, all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. Today was not a bright-eyed and bushy-tailed day. Still, I (we) rallied and ate breakfast and got ready with enough time to play. The mini post-waking-up nap was enough to game me energized. I even had
Another fun day of activities and learning. We had some morning stretches to keep us young and limber. Then we had our English lesson. It was a lot of fun!
Today was pool day at school and I participated for the first time. I have been resistant to wearing a swimming cap so I haven’t participated in a school pool day these two years. But since we got a new swimming camp that I like, I was much more cooperative and had a great time
When Mommy and Daddy found out that I joined in on gymnastics, they both independently picked up desserts for me as a reward. Even though I didn’t join gymnastics for jelly dessert, I was very happy for the treat. It was yummy! Yummy enough to slurp off the table when I spilled. I was energized
We started off our day with a short walk and then came back to school to play inside. Today is our gymnastics day, and I started off on the sidelines like I usually do. But when asked if I wanted to join in, (as I am asked every time), this time I said yes. I
We did some crafts today. We used some flower petals that we collected on a walk to make our crafts. We put them in little baggies with water and watched the colors seep out of them.
The more my language skills the develop, the more interesting observations and comments I make. The other day while eating with my hands I was trying to touch Daddy’s face. Daddy said, “Don’t touch my face with your sticky hands,” to which I replied, “Don’t touch my sticky hands with your face.” Today, Daddy had
While shopping Daddy found this firefighter hose that was one sale and thought I would like it. He was right! I had so much fun shooting water on the car and the wall. We had so refills. I had very good aim and I was just strong enough to pump the water. It was a
While looking through some storage boxes outside for more Lego, Daddy found a Pop-up Pirate game. The object is to shove swords into a barrel and not be the one who makes the pirate Pop-up. I didn’t really understand the game but was really good at it. I beat Mommy three times in a row.
