I am proud to say that it has been a long time since I cried throughout the night. For the past couple months I’ve slept quite well, waking only for feeding or burping. I easily sleep for 4 hours at a time, but sometimes I can sleep 6 hours before I wake up hungry. WhenContinue reading “Midnight feeding”

I can confidently say that I’m a happy boy. I have a great life and a great family. Just realizing that makes me smile and I get really excited. When I get excited I have flail my arms and legs because I have no better way to express that happiness. I rarely see grown upsContinue reading “Excited”

My hair is still growing thick and long. Look at it now! Wow! It might be time for a haircut soon.

My sea otter friend and I are usually on good terms. We play together, keep each other company, and listen to each other (I listen to his music and he listens to my coos). But sometimes we fight as friends sometimes do. I think we’re playing and then it turns into a fight. As usual,Continue reading “Fight with sea otter”

My gums are so itchy recently. I was told that this is called “teething”. I don’t like it. I’m drooling all the time all over the place and I have to, and I mean have to, put everything I get my hands on into my mouth to chew on. Aaaaahhh. So itchy!

I don’t get why it took me so long to roll over. It is so easy now. I can’t believe I wasted so much time on my back and side when I could have easily just rolled over. It is so simple now. I just shift my weight and there I am on my belly.Continue reading “Getting use to rolling over”

Mommy and Daddy treated themselves to some good sushi tonight. Usually they order Uber Eats sushi from a 100 yen sushi place. You know those conveyor belt sushi places. But the decided to splurge and get sushi from a higher end place. I must admit that the spread looked really good. I even made aContinue reading “Sushi”

As I get bigger, I have to start preparing to eat solid foods. But before I do that, I have to practice using a spoon. So we started that practice today. My first spoonful ended up running down my chin, but I got the hang of eating with a spoon very quickly. We were practicingContinue reading “Spoon practice”

I used to fall asleep during holoholo. The vibrations of the stroller used to put me to sleep but recently I stay up to look out at the world. There are so many things to look at!

My whole body is covered with softness. My arms, legs and cheeks are like daifuku mochi. I can’t blame Mommy and Daddy for always chewing on my arms and legs. Being eaten alive is just a part of being this cute!

As a baby there are a lot of things that are just decided for me. What I eat, what I where, when I sleep, where I go, etc.. There was a time when I thought I wanted to be a little more independent and have a say in my life. But it turns out thatContinue reading “I don’t know”

This is not my favorite picture. Sure, I’m sleeping peacefully and it looks cute, but the picture is about 70% pudgy rolls. I looks like you can almost reach out and touch the soft pudginess.

Today is Daddy’s day off and he started it off by giving me a relaxing massage. I like the weekends. It is so relaxing to just stay home with family. Ahh, that’s nice.

Today is Daddy’s day off and he spent the morning giving me a relaxing massage. Yes, babies need to relax too. I’m sure it was relaxing and therapeutic for Daddy as well.

Not everything life is smiles and laughter. There are times for real tears. What time is this? I don’t really remember. I just remember the crying and the tears.

I have a quiz for you. Am I asleep or awake in this video? What do you think? The answer? I have no idea. At least I’m happy!

I mentioned before how different my face looks from different angles, right? Well, this is my pretty side. Look at those brilliant eyes!
