Today we went to go see a puppet show and we got to ride the subway to get there! I was so excited! (About the subway, and maybe a little about the puppet show.) I kept repeating to my teachers, “We got to ride the subway!” I actually ended up liking the puppet show. It […]
In the afternoon, we went to visit a play area in a department store. After a few wrong turns we got there and first had some snacks. I gave Mommy’s lemon drink a taste and quite liked it! But I mainly stuck with my orange juice and snack crackers. The play area had this cool
Today was a holiday so we enjoyed a second three-day weekend in a row. We spent the morning at home playing with various things. I got a cool new water color book. It was like the brush and paper one that I played with before, but this one had a marker with water in it
Some days, you just gotta chill. We didn’t have any special plans today. Of course we played a lot, but for the most part we just chilled. Nothing wrong with that.
On our walk today we visited the prefectural office again to check out the train display. It was pretty awesome. No matter how many times we see it, we never get tired of it. At home I revisited an old puzzle that I hadn’t played with in a long time. It was way too easy.
We had another fun English class today. We sang the apple song and learned about fruits. Later we decorated squirrels with stickers. We all had the same base cutout but each of our squirrels were different because of where we put the stickers and it gave them each their own personality. On the way home
Today Daddy brought some finger-paints to the bath for me to play with. I usually do enjoy finger-painting because I don’t like getting my hands dirty, but I was in the bath and could wash my hands after every colorful stroke so this was the perfect art studio for me. I painted a lot on
It is not easy being sick. I had a day of a lot of ups and downs, but the downs were pretty rough. When you are sick you realize how much of your mood is affected by your health. I was good, smiling, and happy at parts during the day. But most of the time
I had an interesting hairstyle this morning thanks to wearing my hat on the way to school On our walk we visited a greengrocer and picked up some nashi for us to eat at snack time. Unfortunately, I developed a fever after lunch and Mommy had to come and pick me up early from school
Since we were in Kitakyushu, we visited a very popular kids’ play area, Genki no Mori. I immediately took to it and rushed around from place to place trying out all the fun and experience to be had. My first stop was the slides and train. Then I headed to the wood block toys. They
While we were in Kitakyushu City, we stopped by Mommy and Daddy’s friend’s house. They hadn’t seen him in four years, and he had actually never met me yet. I was a little clingy and hesitant at first, but I warmed up very quickly thanks to their hospitality and their little boy’s nice toy collection.
I woke up in Kitakyushu in a very good mood. I had had a very nice sleep in the hotel room and barely stirred at all through the night. Daddy zipped off to get us some breakfast (twice). First he went to McDonald’s to get me some pancakes and the Tomica car prize. Then I
We went to Kitakyushu for a mini-trip. Mommy had a wedding to attend so we decided to make it a family trip. Mommy went first and met up with friends before the wedding. Daddy and I left after lunch so that we could check into the hotel when we arrived. There were some delays with
Loving getting to share a Starbucks treat with Mommy. Funny faces may have been a result of the sugar high.
Mommy and I went to a nearby matsuri (festival) today. Daddy had to work late so we went jus the two of us. I got to wear my cool new jimbei! We were lucky to find one that had trains on them. There were a lot of people at the matsuri. But luckily we didn’t
We went to visit the subway station today. We all love the subway. It was too bad that we could only visit and not ride the subway. Still we got really excited when we heard the subway trains coming and going. We couldn’t really see them, but it was still very fun!
We had a birthday party for one of our younger classmates. It was a lot of fun and us older kids helped decorate and celebrate. We also played a new game where we held on to the mat with all our might while our teacher tried to pull us off of it. I know it
