I’m pretty good on my feet and want to walk to where we are going more and more. I rather walk that ride in the stroller or be carried in the carrier.

Good morning! I’m just playing here, with a different view. And eating up my food! Yum! That’s all!

Daddy and I were playing around and then he put my toy farmer on the music box merry-go-round. And around and around he went. I thought it was hilarious! Then he put the farmer in all these funny positions. I thought that was even funnier! Then he started to mimic the positions of the farmer

Recently when I play with my cars I like to line them up one after another until they look like a big long train. I have to admit that I’m do a pretty good job of lining them up. I did this all by myself. Cool yeah?

When you’re so hungry that one hand just won’t do, I recommend two-handed eating.

This music box is so cool. I wonder how it works. I’m sure if I take it apart I can figure it out. Hmmm, maybe later.

Obachan came over to visit again today and we had a ball playing together! As soon as I saw her I instantly grabbed books and toys to let her know what I had planned for us. She was on board and we had a great time!

I love all kinds of vehicles, but I am quite into trains these days. Some of my favorite videos to watch on YouTube are train videos. Everyone in Grandma and Grandpa’s house quickly learned my sign language for trains meant that I wanted to watch train videos, especially Shinkansen videos. I had seen them before

I’ve met Ojisan several times and I’m starting to get used to him and familiar with him. We went to visit Baaba and he joined us since he is visiting from Tokyo. I don’t cry with him anymore. We are starting to figure out how to interact with each other. It may take a little

I missed my toys while I was gone. I only had about a week with my Christmas gift from Mommy and Daddy before we left for Hawaii. It is nice to be able to play with it again. Also my cars from my Hot Wheels advent calendar. Now what do I play with next?

Well, we’re back in Japan. After such a long day traveling and going to bed so late you would think that I would sleep until noon, but no I didn’t. I woke up maybe just a little bit later than my usual wake up time. I was well rested and in a good mood, not
