Even though it was less than a ten minute drive home, I took a nice quick car nap. That allowed Mommy and Daddy a chance to admire my long lashes.

Mommy and Daddy like going to a certain coffee shop that has a “morning set” where you get a free piece of toast and hard boiled egg with a drink order. They really seem to enjoy it. I had my breakfast before we left so I didn’t get anything to eat. Still I was wellContinue reading “Breakfast “morning set””

So many things in the bath interest me. One recent discovery was the bath door. It slides back and forth, back and forth. I tested it out a lot. And that is all it does. It slides back and forth, back and forth. And still I found it to be very interesting.

These are just a few pictures from parts of my morning.

I don’t know if you can see it, but I have some teeth getting ready to break through my gums. You would expect the top two center to come in next, but actually the one to the side of it (to my left) looks like it might make an appearance first.

I like playing with Obachan, but sometimes I am very clingy and want to stay with Daddy. I try to play with Obachan while not wandering too far away from Daddy. Daddy has started to do his work at the dining table so that I can accomplish this.

Every since I’ve been born, Daddy has been neglecting his garden. He attempts to keep it maintained but has a hard time finding the time. Raising me is a full time job without much time to raise vegetables. Despite the lack of maintenance, vegetables and herbs still grow regularly in our tiny little garden. IContinue reading “No green thumb, just a red one”

I little bit too happy that I don’t have to go to school today.

I really like brushing my teeth. I’m teething so it feels good against my teeth and gums. But also the toothpaste tastes really good! It’s a kids’ toothpaste and very mild, but I still think it is delicious!

Obachan came over to watch me this afternoon while Daddy worked. Since I had such a nice morning with Daddy and no traumatic experience at school, I played very nicely with her. I didn’t even bother Daddy while he was working. I just played hide-and-seek with Obachan, played with my toys, went for walks, andContinue reading “Afternoon with Obachan”

The park we visited today doesn’t have any swings, but it does have rocking bugs. They are like rocking horses, but they are bugs instead of horses. It did not move as far or fast as a swing, but it was still pretty fun! My feet were just able to reach the stirrups so IContinue reading “Rocking Bug”

We’ve tried several times to see the cherry blossoms this spring, but all without luck. We have either been too early or too late. It seems that the sakura trees bloom in different areas in different times. When Daddy and I went to the park today we were able to see a few cherry blossomsContinue reading “Checking out the cherry blossoms”

When Daddy takes care of me, he invites me to follow him wherever he is going. So when he went to change his clothes, he told me to follow him into the bedroom. I did and then went straight to my favorite play place in the bedroom: the bed. More accurately, I climbed on theContinue reading “Bedroom AC remote control”

No school today! I’m feeling pretty good! Let’s get this day started!

I quite like bath time now. I usually will come to the bathroom when called once the bath is ready. The hard thing is to stop me from going into the bath before I am undressed.

We visited the park for a bit today and I had a ball on the swings! I love it! I like the thrill of the swing, but it seems I’m not the only one. While I was riding the swings some other kids came to the park and a little girl got on the swingContinue reading “Happy on the swings”

On the way to the park Daddy got a phone call from my nursery school saying that they would be closed for the next couple of days. Something about someone testing positive. Daddy sounded concerned. I don’t know why. Doesn’t “positive” mean good? Anyway, I was told that I would be staying home for theContinue reading “No school for a couple of days”
