In Japan when you answer something correct you hear a “pin-pon” bell to signify that you got it right. When you get it wrong there is a buzzer that sounds like “bu-bu”. I learned from my kids’ shows how to say “bu-bu” and kind of make the X sign with my hands.

Like I mentioned before, I’ve been waking up around 7 lately. I don’t even cry when I wake up, I just roll around and wait for Daddy to notice that I’m up. Then we begin our morning routine on a tighter schedule. Even when I wake up at 7, we try to be out theContinue reading “Past seven”

I usually eat dinner before Mommy and Daddy. But sometimes they start getting their dinner ready as I eat. When I saw a bowlful of tomatoes on the table I just had to have some. So I asked nicely and got a few servings. I’m afraid I did not leave much for Mommy or Daddy,Continue reading “Tomatoes please”

Before I used to like our school walks because I got to go outside. But now that I’m toddling around a lot I feel that our walks are lacking of walking. Sometimes the rides in the stroller or buggy to our destination where we can walk around and explore is too long. Are we thereContinue reading “Not enough walking on our walks”

I’ve been sleeping quite well lately. I don’t wake up in the middle of the night that much anymore. And I wake up later than I used to. Before I’d be up before or around 6, but nowadays it is closer to 7 or even past. I must be having a growth spurt if IContinue reading “Good sleeper”

Ooh that looks nice. Maybe a splash more blue and a streak of red. A little more detail here, just a dab there. Must concentrate to get it just right.

Just doing some tunneling at school. I wonder where this comes out?

We are always so busy, that it is nice to have some relaxing family TV time.

When we go shopping these days, I am allowed to walk around on my own. Actually, I usually start off in a cart but I kind of escape and end up walking around. And I automatically seek out anything Anpanman. I don’t try to buy the things, I just like finding them and pointing themContinue reading “Shopping”

Just me growling. Why? Not really sure. I just felt like growling.

Mommy needed some pokey chestnuts for school, so she bought some fake ones from the 100 yen shop (dollar store). They were probably not as pokey as the real thing, but still pretty pokey. Interesting…now I’m done touching them.

I tried on the Halloween costume that Grandma made for me, and while I think it is super cute, I was a bit uncomfortable. Not only was it hot today to begin with, but I just wasn’t used to wearing a body suit. I think it will take some practice. Either that or an understandingContinue reading “Uncomfortable dinosaur”

I was trying to show off to Grandma and Grandpa by showing them how I can throw a ball really well, which I usually can, but today I ended up dropping it behind my head. Weird. I must have the yips or something.

While walking around the shopping center I saw that they had a train for kids going around and around. I just had to ride it! I made my wish known by pointing at the train and whining a lot! When we got into line we realized that I was not the only one who feltContinue reading “Shopping center train”

After breakfast I wandered around and started playing on the rocking bug and the slide that they had at the shopping center. Daddy had a hard time following me around because I was very fast and indecisive. I couldn’t stick to one activity for very long. I kept changing my mind and playing in aContinue reading “Playing outside at a shopping center”

While waiting for Mommy and Daddy’s breakfast to arrive, I already ate at home, I had fun watching traffic and pointing out all the buses. Every so often I also spotted a train go by on the track. So much to watch! When Mommy and Daddy’s breakfast arrived I forgot that I had already eatenContinue reading “Traffic watching at breakfast”

I’m finally okay with wearing a backpack. You may remember that my first experience with a backpack was not very pleasant. But when Daddy suggested that I try it today I happily agreed and I was off!

Just a tiny appetizer before dinner. Yum!

I had such a great time at Umi no Nakamichi that I was absolutely exhausted and ended up taking a nap on the ride home.

Practicing to use web shooters just in case I get bitten by a spider and turned into Spider-man.
