I was cleared for our walk at school today! I was so happy to go outside with my classmates and my teachers! My teachers found some dandelions and made them flutter away! It was really cool!

If you listen carefully at the beginning of the video, you can hear me singing to myself while playing. Not any particular song, just a tune I made up.

Just kidding! I didn’t do any cleaning. I make messes, not clean.

I had to put up this little partition to get some privacy while reading my books in the morning. Daddy is always watching me!

By the time Mommy picks me up from school and brings me home, I’m pretty thirst and hungry. And when I’m hungry I am not in the best of moods. I get a bit fussy and needy. Which is to my disadvantage because by needing to be carried I make it more difficult for MommyContinue reading “Arriving home thirsty and hungry”

I always wondered who picked up after me while I was at school. It wasn’t cleaning elves after all. It was Daddy! And I heard Mommy does the same after I go to bed! Thanks folks! It is just all the more fun to make new messes!

I woke up today feeling so much better than before. It was a pretty tough three days, but I was a trooper and made it through and was even able to have some fun too! I’m glad that my fever subsided before school today. I was back to normal and happy to be at school,Continue reading “Staying in school”

Even with a fever, I have a pretty good appetite. This is good because it gives Mommy and Daddy one less thing to worry about. But I was an especially good eater this morning since my fever broke. I’m feeling a lot better. I had a lot of energy and was excited to play inContinue reading “Feeling better”

Can you believe that I still have my fever? I can’t seem to shake it. It even got a little worse today, rising as high as 39°C (102.2°F). I slept a lot in the morning. Then I started to feel better in the afternoon. I could play a lot more and explore a lot. IContinue reading “Lingering fever”

Naturally, it is important to keep hydrated when you have a fever, so I make sure to drink my electrolytes. But come to think of it, the moisturizer is unnecessary. I don’t see how soft skin will help me deal with this fever. I guess skin care is a daily thing.

Today I managed to nap in my crib. It is not often that I take my nap there. I usually am put to sleep by Mommy or Daddy rocking me to sleep and then usually just nap on them. But somehow they got me to nap in my crib. I wonder if this is goingContinue reading “Nap time”

So like I said, I was feeling relatively good for having a pretty high fever. So even though I was supposed to be taking it easy, I still was pretty active. And it goes without saying that I had to read a lot of books today. Like I said, I was very busy. I readContinue reading “Busy with a fever”

I woke up quite early in the morning and my fever had gotten worse. I woke up crying at around 4 and Daddy picked me up and was shocked by how hot I was. He had a hard time getting me back to my sleep because I was so uncomfortable with my fever. He hadContinue reading “Sadly no excursion for me”

I had a restful day with a lot of naps. My fever is still lingering, but with any luck it will be gone by tomorrow. Obachan came over to take care of me in the afternoon, and I was quite happy to see her. But I didn’t really see much of her because I wasContinue reading “Fever-ful day”

Just because I have a fever doesn’t mean I’m going to give up on my books. I need to read my books every day.

I woke up with a fever this morning. It could be a reaction to my inoculations yesterday. Whatever the reason, I don’t feel very good. I’ve had fevers before and I was still in a pretty good mood, but today I am so tired, uncomfortable, and lethargic. Of course, I stayed home from nursery school.Continue reading “Fever”

After my bath I suddenly remembered that I had some filing to do. So instead of putting it off I got right to it. I didn’t even bother getting dressed.

I had to get more inoculations today. I was not happy about that. However, Mommy took a half day off to take me so it was nice that I got so see more of her. When we got to the hospital, I heard some other girl screaming and thought, “Oh yeah, this place, where babiesContinue reading “Innoculations”

I was feeling pretty drowsy during our morning walk today. You can see it my eyes. I was just staring off into the distance and eventually fell asleep. It is too bad, because I missed the chance to see Daddy. After he dropped me off at school he went grocery shopping and ran into ourContinue reading “Drowsy walk”

Just watching some TV before heading off to nursery school and giving the buckles on my carrier a safety inspection.
