My Birthday Party

On Jan 4th, we had my Birthday Party at home.
My Birthday Banner

The kitchen received 'star treatment'..

Daddy holding me, while Yuan Yuan was busy vacuuming the carpet. You can see Emma on the background, she and Yuan Yuan were born just one day apart from each other(Dec 19 and Dec 20). They are my only 2 friends who can already walk.

Yuan Yuan, Emma and me. In the background you can see Naoki's daddy.

This is Ailin. She is half Japanese and half American.

Here are Momiji lying on the carpet (she cant crawl yet), Genki on the bamboo chair (he cant crawl yet either), Emma reading a book and Ailin.

Ailin and I.

Ailin, Me and Yuan Yuan looking at the same direction.

With Naoki and his mommy.

My Birthday

On my birthday, daddy and mommy took me for a walk around the block.


Before we went home, daddy bought me a small cake just for the 3 of us.

Christmas and New Year

I received some Christmas presents from Mommy, Uncle Shusuke & Aunty Satoko and Aunty Takae & family.
Here are my presents.

With daddy, watching some very colourful light decoration in Tokyo, just few days before New Year.

With Mommy.

Ready to do some New Year shopping. Why do I look grumpy?? Because I am well ready to go and Mommy and Daddy are still getting ready!

Yokohama Zoo

We went to Yokohama Zoo(Zoorasia) on Dec 17 with Jiji. I loved the penguins

I am more fascinated by how much daddy looks like Jiji than the polar bear!

Can you see the big polar bear right behind us?

I got tired after a while and fell asleep

No, this is not one of the animals in the zoo...this is me sleeping!

11 months old

Sometimes, I like to make faces while I take my bath.

And I like playing with my tougue too..

Autumn Leaves
