Despite my bad table manners, I would like to point out that my elbows are off the table.

While I was eating dinner I would perk up and straighten out my posture from time to time. I was trying to sit up straight but didn’t hold the position for long. So Daddy started to call for attention. I did it a little. I thought it was fun game! I guess I’m not yet

After all the excitement of finding Anpanman inari sushi at the supermarket, I am sad to say that I didn’t really like it. Maybe it was the texture, maybe it was the flavor, or maybe it was biting into the face of my favorite character, I don’t know, but I did not like it. I

We stopped by the park on the way home and I was so happy! Look at that smile!

I went grocery shopping with Daddy and was really excited! There was so much food! Sure, I couldn’t buy all of it or even eat all of it if we did, but one can dream. It was just exciting to see so much food in one place. I helped Daddy do his shopping, finding the

Chilling on the couch (with Mommy as a pillow). I’m actually bothering her as she tries to take a nap after waking up early in the morning with me. So Daddy set up my chair in front of the TV to give her some peace and quiet.

Daddy tried to set up a mat to be like the play mats I have at school. It is not the same. He used a yoga mat on cushions but we have gym mats at school. It was a nice try, but I wasn’t that into it. I was more into the curtain flapping in

I like to help Daddy water the plants outside and have recently noticed that there are a lot of red ripe mini tomatoes. I like to pick the ones that are near me. Daddy has to warn me not to put them in my mouth because I could choke on them. But he cuts them

I like my milk before bed. It is very tasty and quite filling, holding me over until the morning. But I’m aware that it is a sign that it is almost bedtime, so I try to squeeze in some more play time while I can.

I like to bounce along to music, even the short tunes that come from my toys. It must have looked like fun because Daddy decided to join me.

I have a cute little book all about animals jumping. It is called “Pyon!” I really REALLY get into it and join in on all the action. “Pyon!”

If I do it once I’m bound to repeat it. Lego box head returns.

Today we were having fun when Daddy was tossing me on the couch. I really enjoyed it until I wanted something else. What I wanted, I don’t quite know. I just wasn’t happy about something. I think I liked the tossing, but I wanted something more.

I was so happy to see that Mommy was home that I completely disregarded my safety and headed straight for her and fell of the table in the process. But Mommy, being my great mommy, caught me! Nice catch, Mommy!

I’m pretty good at getting up there on my own. But every so often I just can’t quite seem to manage it.

I like looking out the window to check the weather. Hmmm. It looks to be another hot summer day. I really didn’t need to look outside to figure that out.
