When I’m not in the mood to do something, I’m very good at busying myself with other things and also actively ignoring people. You’d be amazed how good I am at avoiding things.

My nursery school had Sports Day today! It had been a long time since the school had one because of the pandemic, so everyone was very excited about it. I lucked out that my first year at the school and I could have a Sports Day! For the older kids this is their first and

We walked by this tiny pillars and Daddy made the mistake of having me jump from one to another. I kept making him do it again and again. It really tired out my 44-year-old father. He was happy to do it though. He’ll completely wear himself out playing with me if it brings a smile

I am so excited for bed! Like super excited! Hyper even! Why? I’m not really sure. I was just in a really good mood and really happy! I had a great day at school and I had fun with Mommy and Daddy after school. The result of this great day is being excited about bed!

One of the books that I’m really into right now is about different animals leaping into the air. The pictures are really cool and it is very exciting when Daddy reads it with such enthusiasm. I feel like the animals are practically leaping off the page at me!

Look! Daddy’s home! Yay! I have so much to tell him and we have so much playing to do!

I was going through my diaper box this morning. It has all my essentials, like diapers, wipes, lotions, handkerchiefs, and my morning routine set: brush/comb, sunscreen, and baby powder. I was trying to get my morning routine set because I knew that it was time to start heading off to school. Actually, we were running

I’m just lotioning up after my bath. I have to take care of my baby soft skin to make sure it stays baby soft. I want everything to be super soft but apparently Mommy and Daddy don’t want the inside of my mouth to be soft because they stopped me from trying to eat the

Just stepping up in the world. I can get a whole new view of my surroundings and I can reach more things that are above me. I like it up here, but this does not bode well for Mommy and Daddy.

I was so tired this morning that I just fell asleep while hanging out with Mommy. She wasn’t even trying to put me to sleep. We were just relaxing and I relaxed a little bit too much.

I tried mozuku today. It is a kind of seaweed. It wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t my favorite either. It was a bit on the stringy side. I wouldn’t mind having it again, but I also wouldn’t ask for it.

The typhoon came and went during the night. I didn’t even notice it at all. But it seems to have been big enough to cause some inconveniences since a lot of transportation was shut down. Daddy had to walk to work today because the subway wasn’t running. Mommy took me to school today and I

On our walk at school today we went to the park. It was very cloudy and overcast because of the approaching typhoon. But the nice thing is that it wasn’t that hot today. While at the park we had fun with our teachers, exchanging high fives and checking out the flowers around the park. Even

I’m really getting better at walking. Ever since Hawaii I’ve been a lot more confident on my feet and try to walk whenever I have the opportunity. I am able to walk longer, steadier, and with fewer spills nowadays. Before you know it I’m going to be running all over the place!

Daddy was feeling a bit under the weather, I spent most of the day with Mommy. With the approaching typhoon we decided to stay close to home just to be safe. But staying indoors all day can get old, so Mommy made a picnic outside for me. I had my snacks and toys and Mommy!

Mommy was cooking in the kitchen and I wanted to be near her, but she didn’t want me to get too close because it could be dangerous. So I kept my distance and kept myself busy. As you can see, I was quite busy.

Just messing around with my chair.

Did you know that when you only kind of knock a bottle over it doesn’t completely fall over and wobbles instead? I just discovered that today with Mommy’s bottle. Quite interesting. It is hard to knock it just right, but when you do, the wobble is pretty cool.
