Valentine's Day etc.
I've been getting into mischief lately, reminding everyone that they have to watch me constantly. Feb 14th was Valentines Day. Daddy went out by himself and I went with Mummy and Obaachan to Samitto (supermarket near the local station) and Obaachan bought more stuff for me, including a rain cover for the pushchair. When Daddy came home, he was given chocolate by Obaachan, Mummy, and Akemi-chan. Then yesterday, I went with Mummy and Daddy to Funabashi. I slept most of the time, just waking up to have lunch at a cafe under the Loft dept store. When we came home at the reasonable time of 7:30pm Obaachan was angry and said we should come home earlier. Mummy and Daddy did lots of eye-rolling later when she wasn't watching. Ojiichan was at home and played with me for a while. I've been practicing walking holding the wall for support, and I was doing this while leaning against the lounge door, and slipped and bumped my head on the door, which hurt a little and I cried a bit, and Mummy and Obaachan got angry with Ojiichan for not watching me "properly" (he was actually right behind me and took his eyes off me for just a few seconds). Anyway, I was alright and soon forgot about falling over when Daddy gave me a few plastic wrappers from his chocolates to play with. Then when he wasn't watching me for about 30 seconds, I managed to get one of them all the way into my mouth. I didn't choke on it, but I probably would've eventually if Akemi-chan hadn't noticed that I was chewing on something crunchy and Daddy stuck his finger into my mouth and fished it out. Despite me being ok, Mummy and Obaachan were angry at Daddy for not watching me "properly" but Daddy was surprised that I was able to get it all into my mouth while he wasn't watching just for that brief time. Anyway, I then took a bath with Daddy and then Daddy and I showed off the Yukata (summer kimono) that Daddy bought for us on the 14th. Mine is pink with pictures and motifs from the Heian period (c800AD?) and Daddy's is dark navy, with gold kanji (chinese letters). We'll take some photos when the camera battery is recharged. Today the plan was for Daddy & I to meet Chika and her family, but its raining and cold again, so I'm not allowed to go out. It doesn't make sense to Mummy and Daddy, especially since Obaachan bought a rain cover for the pushchair. What other purpose can it serve other than to be a cover for the pushchair so that we can go out even when its raining? This is just another thing that is perplexing for Mummy and Daddy. Daddy's fine because he can drink Ojiichan's whisky to relax (which he seems to be doing every day), but I hope Mummy can be patient until we go back to NZ. Anyway, since I'm not allowed out, but Mummy has to go the dentist, Daddy is staying at home with me today. I've been doing lots of walking using Ojiichan's train, so I'm tired and am going to sleep now.
