Nana and Papa came over first thing in the morning and I was so happy to see them. I had so many things to show them. It had been a year since they were last here so I had to catch them up. Sure, we FaceTime every week, but it is different in person. I spent a lot of the morning showing them all my new toys and my different things from school.


We didn’t have any particular plans today, but it was just nice to be in the same room together. We played together, talked together, read books together, and just were together. At was sitting on the couch watching Papa use his iPad and asking what he was doing. He said he was watching baseball and explained the game to me. I listened and watched for a bit. Then I wanted to show him that I had more interesting things on my iPad.


We decided to go to YouMe town for some shopping and lunch. I insisted on sitting next to Nana in the car and walking with her. But when it came for shopping, instead of walking, I wanted to ride. So Daddy and I went in search of a cart and luckily found one.




While shopping we came past some capsule machines. I asked if I could get one and Mommy and Daddy said yes. I got chose a miniature gas station which everyone thought was a strange choice, but I was quite happy with it.

For lunch we had omurice, which was my choice. Everyone really enjoyed their meals. We were surprised that Nana and Papa finished their whole meals! Usually they can’t. I guess Japan’s portions were the right size for them compared to American portions.

When heading back to the car I had to show Nana and Papa the bicycle pump outside YouMe Town. I like it because it goes pssssshhhhh.

We didn’t do anything special, but we had a lot of fun this morning. Nice!
