Daddy and I dropped Mommy off for an appointment and when we got home he was very surprised, if not shocked, by what he saw. I had a severe bloody nose. The air has been very dry and I often pick my nose. I guess I went mining a little to deep. I didn’t sayContinue reading “Bloody nose”

I have my favorite videos on Super Simple Songs and I also like watch Tayo which is about a bus and Titipo which is about a train. However, recently, I started to like to watch Curious George as well. Since the shows are a bit longer, I usually only watch Curious George on the weekends.Continue reading “Curious George, school bus cleaning, making lunch”

We went for a nice walk today and saw a lot of pretty plum blossoms. We also visited the prefectural office top floor so that we could see out into the city. There were so many cars to see that I was very excited and happy. I was, however, a bit difficult when we gotContinue reading “Walk and prefectural office visit”

Today at the park I played construction site. I dug holes like and excavator and then covered them up like a bulldozer. I narrated what I was doing by saying, “Pouring sand” and “Hardening the cement”. My friends joined in and we had a very busy construction site.

When Mommy came to pick me up from school today, I did a cute little dance for her. She wanted to get in on camera so asked me to do it again, but I insisted on seeing the video even though she hadn’t taken it yet. I finally did a mini version of the original,Continue reading “Dancing in the elevator hall”

Mommy went through a lot of trouble making me a special healthy Valentine’s day dessert: Banana cocoa shake. I appreciate the effort, but if I’m being honest, I did not really like it. It was a bit bitter from the cocoa. Thank you for thought and effort, Mommy!

We played in the sand a lot today and “cooked” a lot of food. A lot of us made curry. We also ran around a lot and played chase. I asked my teacher to be “it” and chase us, but then when she chased me I told her “Stop! Don’t chase me!” She asked meContinue reading “Cooking and chasing at the park”

I got a really cool Valentine’s Day card from Nana and Papa. Somehow they always find greeting cards that have awesome cars in them. I don’t know how they do it. It always makes me happy to get cards from them. I can’t wait for the next one. Thank you, Nana and Papa! And happyContinue reading “Valentine’s Day card”

Telling Daddy that I love Mommy and then telling Mommy directly…again and again.

Today at the park we ran around a lot. At one point our teacher drew train tracks for us to follow and we happily walked the line. We also pretended to be dinosaurs. We roared and chased each other around. I had so much fun being a dinosaur that before our nap I told myContinue reading “Walking the line”

I think my face has changed a lot from when I was a newborn baby. But every so often you catch a glimpse of the baby face I once had.

At the park today, Daddy and I were arguing about who would go on the slide first. Daddy suggested we play janken (rock paper scissors), probably thinking that he would win easily. He was so wrong. I repeatedly beat him. It was actually quite amazing. Either I’m really good at janken or Daddy is reallyContinue reading “Park”

As usual, when I found out that Daddy was cooking, I volunteered to help out.

Singing “One little, two little, three little cars” while playing with my cars in my dump truck.

Every so often I rediscover my baby toys and start playing with them. There is a bit of reminiscent nostalgia that I enjoy. It makes it hard to get rid of old toys because Mommy and Daddy cannot claim that I don’t play with them anymore. Everything actually does get played with at some time.
