Back in Japan and the Last flight home

I was very excited for our last flight home. I don’t mind flying at all and I don’t even mind waiting for flights. That just gives me time to look at a lot of airplanes! While waiting, Daddy took me to the gift shop and let me pick out a little toy because I was […]

Flight back to Japan

We were ready to take off and I wanted to make sure that everyone was here. Mommy and Daddy were on the flight, but where were Maimai and Tata? I misunderstood when they said they were going home on the same day as us. They were taking a different flight to their home, not the

Snack at next gate

We were lucky that our next flight’s gate was very close to our departure gate. So we were able to make it there on time. Actually, we had just enough time for all of us to have a snack. I had my Anpanman biscuits and Mommy and Daddy had a sandwich that they were going

Inter-island flight

We safely got on our first flight and I was very excited to be on an airplane again! I love flying and was having a fun time pointing out all the airplanes at the airport. Then we got some of my vehicle stickers out so I could enjoy other vehicles instead of just airplanes. This

Leaving Kauai

We had a bit of a hiccup when leaving Kauai. We arrived at the airport to find that our flight had been cancelled. We had to stand in a long line to get a new fight. It was a long wait and I ended up falling asleep in my baby carrier. I think all of

Playing with Lauren to the very last minute before we have to leave.

What? We’re leaving?

I found out that we are heading back to Japan today. I heard that we were going home but I thought that meant Grandma and Grandpa’s house. Oh. I’m not sure I’m ready to head back.

New Year’s Day Party

We had a New Year’s Day party at Grandma and Grandpa’s house and I was happy to see a lot of familiar faces from last night’s New Year’s Eve party. They are family friends and get together every year. It has been a tradition for years, more than a dozen years at least. I’m glad

Last chance at backyard fun

We leave tomorrow, so I wanted to play in the backyard one last time. We had a ball just being silly!

Playing with Aunty Chris

After I woke up from my nap Mommy and Daddy were getting my snack ready. I took the opportunity to have some one-on-one play time with Aunty Chris! It seems like she loves cars just as much as I am! Or maybe she just loves me so much that she can make seem like she

Waking from nap

I woke up from a very good nap in a very good mood. So instead of crying out for Mommy and Daddy I decided to just go and find them on my own. So after sitting up in bed for a while to fully wake up, I slid out of bed and headed straight to

New Year’s Day pictures

I’ve been having such a great holiday here in Hawaii. So much so that I get very excited about Christmas trees. Look at how big this tree is and look at all the pretty ornaments. I was in such a good mood that we figured that it was a good chance to take a few

New Year’s Day breakfast with everyone

We decided to all go out for a New Year’s Day breakfast with everyone. Sure, I already had breakfast, but I can go for another breakfast. I waited kind of patiently as everyone ordered, but then I got restless. Mommy and Daddy took turns taking me for walks to keep me busy. I had fun

Happy New Year!

Happy new year everyone! I’m starting the new year off with a hearty breakfast! I have a feeling it is going to be a great year! Yay 2023!

Sleeping through New Year’s fireworks

Apparently there was a final big fireworks show at midnight to ring in the new year. I didn’t even notice. I slept through everything. I slept like a baby…because I am one.

New Year’s Eve Party

We went to a friend’s house for a New Year’s Eve party! I’ve never been to a New Year’s Eve party before. I was very excited! There were a lot of people that I didn’t know, but that was okay. First of all, there was food, and I’m always down for good food. Another thing

Piano with Grandpa

Grandpa was showing me how to play the piano and I was watching and listening intently. I hung on every word and tried to mimic his hands perfectly. I thought I was doing pretty good. Then I find out that Grandpa doesn’t play piano at all! Oh well. I guess I’ll fake it until I
