When I lean back against the couch, the mat slips forward and bunches up. There is nothing wrong with that. At least until I try to push the table around. Then I have a proper fit when it gets stuck. I’m a strange being sometimes.

During our walk today we stopped by the pond at the park and took a look at the ducks. I like ducks. They are cool to look at. But I was a bit distracted by my itchy gums. I must be teething again.

The other day Mommy and Daddy were trying to get me to go to the bathroom to take my bath, but I actively ignored them. I do that a lot. I devote all my energy and focus into not hearing them and doing what I want to do. The reason I try to ignore them

Obachan stopped by for a visit today. I was really happy to see her! I haven’t seen her in a few weeks. She needed some tech help so she came to see Mommy (but I think she really just missed me and I was the main reason for the visit.) In addition to helping her

We all got summer haircuts to help beat the heat! Looking pretty cool!

I find my self standing a lot nowadays. It usually happens when I’m not thinking about it. Sometimes I am holding something in both hands or I am focused on something else. Today I was at the park and saw a bus go by in the distance. I wanted to get a better view so

Hey look, we have similar haircuts! I wonder who cuts Daddy’s hair. Okay, I just found out from Daddy that he gets his hair cut by a professional. That’s not fair! Oh, he also said he goes to the cheapest place nearby which is 1200 yen (about $9). Okay, so nothing fancy, but it is

Just exploring a bit.

Today’s lunch was nice and tasty, and also easy to eat. I like finger foods because I like to feed myself at my own pace, which is really fast face stuffing.

Napping is so much better with a napping buddy.

One of my PandaCrates came with a pullback car. For the most part I play with it like a regular car, pushing it around on the floor. Mommy and Daddy try to help me play with it by pulling it back and letting it go and then zoom off across the room. I have fun

Today at school I was sitting on one of my teacher’s laps and just relaxing, then one of my classmates came over and tried to sit on her lap too. The instant he put his hand on her leg I pushed it away and scolded “Ahhh, ahhh!”, chasing him away from my teacher. Sure, she

I got some new shoes and tried them on today. They fit quite well and were nice and light. It wasn’t cumbersome or anything. Still, after some time breaking them in I couldn’t wait to get them off. Even though they are nice and comfortable shoes, I much rather be barefoot.
