I’m just being a helpful little boy and giving Mommy some tissues. A lot of tissues. She doesn’t need that many, but just in case.

When Mommy and Daddy tell me it is time to eat, I very eagerly make my way to my seat because I know that’s where I get fed. But I need some help to get into my seat. I still haven’t managed to climb into my chair on my own…yet.

I had tororo kombu today, which is a kind of seaweed. It was pretty good. Nice and salty! As you can see I couldn’t wait to be fed and just tried to grab the food on my own.

I had kombu. It was pretty good. I was very excited about eating more!

No, I’m not naked. I know it looks like I am, but it is just my belly hiding my diapers.

No, I’m not posing like Usain Bolt. I’m just pointing around the room and emphatically telling Mommy and Daddy about my day at school.

After a day and a half off from school because of my fever we were a little worried about how I would react to going to school again. You hear that some babies do fine until the first disruption to their routine and then they kind of have to start getting used to school allContinue reading “13th day of school”

You see that bump at the back of my pants. That’s not a tail. That’s a large hard poop. Now I feel much better. I’m ready to go to school now!

I was just playing in the morning like usual and then I found my comb and brush in my diaper box. So I took it out, then put it back in the box. Then I took it out again. Then I put it away again. And then…well, just watch and see.

I’m feeling a lot better! Absolutely no fever and just a bit of a runny nose. I’m ready for school. Is it weird that I’m excited? Just a while ago I was dreading school, now I’m looking forward to it. I want to look my best so I just have to do a quick mirrorContinue reading “Getting ready for school: Mirror check”

I find that now that I’m going to nursery school, I’m a lot thirstier than before. They give me a lot of tea at school too, but I drink a lot more tea at home as well. I wake up in the morning very thirsty.

I was playing peekaboo with the curtain today! I like playing peekaboo and I’m very interested in curtains, but I also needed to poop and wanted a bit of privacy.

Well, it looks like the fever is gone. My temperature is still a bit high, but I wouldn’t call it a fever. I’m feeling a lot better. Still a little tired, but I woke up in a very good mood and gearing to play! I still have to stay home from school because of howContinue reading “Fever is gone”

I had a bit of a rough night. Even though my fever came down, I still had a slight one and it made me wake up several times during the night. I went to bed alright but it was a restless sleep and I kept waking up. For the most part I would put myselfContinue reading “Rough night”

Daddy took me to the doctor’s office because I had a 38.5°C (101.3°F) fever, so he thought it would be best to try and get my fever down as soon as possible. I got some medicine and it started to work right away. It was weird that I was sick because I felt fine. IContinue reading “Fever”

Another no cry handoff today. I think I’m really getting used to school. In fact I think I might be liking it. I was a bit fussy at home this morning around 8:00. It was almost like I was antsy to get to school. I had fun playing with my teachers and friends and thenContinue reading “12th day of nursery school”

Even after a nearly full day of school, I still have a lot of energy when I get home. Obachan picked me up from school today at 17:00. When I got home it was almost time for dinner so after a little bit of playing I ate my meal. Then Mommy came home from workContinue reading “Still energetic”

I am such a good boy! I did not cry today! When we reached my nursery school I was a little wary but I didn’t cry. When Daddy handed me off to my teacher, I didn’t cry. I did whine a little when it was time to say goodbye, but I didn’t cry! Why cry?Continue reading “11th day of nursery school”

I had such a busy morning that I ended up taking a nap before I went to school. Also, my daily school schedule has been quite draining and I find myself more tired than usual. At 8:30 it was time to get ready for school, but I didn’t wake up. Daddy was able to changeContinue reading “Morning nap before school”
