Nobody let’s me have any fun. All I wanted to do was peel off the top layer of the floor mat but Daddy wouldn’t let me. Sure, I tried to eat the pieces that I peeled off, but that’s where the fun is.

After I have my dinner, Mommy let’s me stay in my chair as she gets my bath ready. I usually spend my time brushing my teeth, playing with toys, or licking my table clean of any pieces of food. Another thing I like to do is find Daddy at work at his desk. I know

We’ve moved beyond simple peekaboo and are having a lot more fun! I’m very aware of my surroundings and where everyone is. When Mommy or Daddy leave the room I watch them go and keep looking in that direction until they come back. Or I go looking for them now that I can crawl. Out

I tried some fish today. It was pretty fishy. It wasn’t bad, but the fishy taste was very strong. The next time I have it, I’m sure it will be mixed with rice or vegetables.

Some mornings we just like to relax and ease into the day with breakfast and the news. Of course, to do that we have to be comfortable on the couch.

Like I mentioned, I’m sleeping quite well on my own, but end up sleeping on my tummy. But before I get to my tummy I’m on my back tossing and turning a bit. I think it is creating a bit of a bald spot on the back of my head. I think I should start

It doesn’t take much to make me smile. All I have to do is see Mommy or Daddy smiling at me. It also doesn’t take much to make me laugh. All I have to do is watch Mommy and Daddy doing silly things to entertain me. They play with me, talk to me, dance for

I was playing on the floor and then decided to sneak up on Mommy and Daddy who were on the couch. With my newfound ability to crawl, I thought I could get to them before they noticed. But they saw my hair standing up on my head like you would see a shark fin sticking

I had such a good sleep last night! It was the first time that I went to bed without any crying at all. We went through our usual bedtime routine and when Mommy and Daddy put me in my crib after kissing me goodnight I just looked up at them. They were shocked! Usually I

We went to see Ojiichan and Obaachan today. They were very happy to see me! It had been some time since I last visited, so I cried when I saw them. I didn’t recognize them and I latched on to Daddy. But after some time, I recognized them and calmed down. In order to get

My face can look so different at different angles. It’s all about how gravity pulls on it and what my mood is. Here it looks like I’m pooping but I’m just making raspberries.

Being a baby can be tough. There is so much to learn, so much to do, and so much to explore. We are always on the move, so sometimes we need to relax. Thank goodness for baby massages.

We got an advent calendar. So as I understand it, we open these doors up every day as we countdown to Christmas. Cool! The advent calendar we got has mini ornaments behind the doors. They are very cute ornaments. I will be looking forward to the new ornament everyday.

I like being held a lot, sometimes I like to be on my own. I don’t have anyway to tell anyone what I want to do, so I just do it. And sometimes that surprises Mommy and Daddy, but they have fast reflexes to catch me.

As winter sets in, it has been getting quite cold, and I needed a winter hat. We found this cool dinosaur hat! Isn’t it awesome! I like it a lot! I’m a Masonsaurus!
