I’ve had fish before, but never deep-fried fish before. Actually, I’ve never had deep-fried anything before. I liked it! Next I want to try the French fries that I often see Mommy and Daddy enjoying! Those look good!

This is what it looks like when our lunch is being prepared. No pressure. We are all good eaters and can’t wait for lunch time. After we eagerly eat all of our food, it is nap time. And on a full stomach we usually go to sleep quite easily and for quite long.

I was playing with Daddy this morning and at one point leaned back onto the couch with my arms extended. Daddy luckily had his phone out and took the above picture. After he did, he saw an uncanny resemblance between my pose and the famous Glico man located in Osaka. Do you see the resemblance?

I woke up early in the morning and then went back to sleep on the couch with Mommy. I slept so well that I even slept past my usual wake up time.

On our walk today we stopped by the prefectural office and they had a train exhibit that we went to take a look at. We liked the model train that they had and we had fun taking a picture in a train interior mockup that they had set up.

Yep, I’m still helping with the laundry whenever I can!

Breakfast is usually quite tame since we are all just waking up. There is some casual conversation, but that’s about it. But every so often we are in a playful mood even in the first thing in the morning. Daddy put my bread in his hand and when I grabbed it the trap was activated

I go to sleep quite well which shows my sleep training paid off. But I still sometimes wake up way before it is time to get up. I can wake up any time between 2 a.m. and 6 a.m.. Either Mommy or Daddy has to wake up, take me out of the bedroom so that

As I mentioned before, I no longer to go bed peacefully. I cry when it is time to go to bed and cry when I’m put to bed. After a few minutes of crying in my crib I am able to wind myself down and go to sleep, usually within 10 to 15 minutes. This

Even when I’m finished eating up all of my food, I’m not quite done with dinner. I try to get every bit, drop, and morsel of food. And then I just end up playing with my bowl.

After our walk today we all came back and read some books at nursery school. I take reading very seriously and was very into my book. I turned the pages myself and made sure to point out things that I was excited about, saying, “Ah, ah, ah!”

Sometimes I wake up so early in the morning that I need a rest right after I eat breakfast. Maybe I should sleep a little longer. But I like to start my day off early. Hmmm…I should try to find the perfect time to wake up.

I don’t mind brushing my teeth. In fact, I like it! But I’m aware that once I finish brushing my teeth it is time for me to go to bed so I try to avoid brushing my teeth or try to ignore all the steps leading up to bedtime. I try to get in as

I’m not a big fan of clothes. Especially when it is hot like during summer. So sometimes I runaway right after my bath before Mommy can even put my diaper on. I make a mad dash out of the bathroom and am about to make my escape when I’m stopped by Daddy in the other

Because of the rain we played indoors at nursery school today. It was a lot of fun! We played with balls and I did pretty good pushing them through some holes cut out of a partition. Then we got to play with these cool little push pop toys. They are a lot of fun for

It was really rainy today! So rainy that I had to wear a rain jacket on the way to school because the umbrella wasn’t enough since it was windy and the rain was coming in from the side. We got to school safely and I was pretty dry.
