Waitress

On Saturday, Hinata and Mizuho visited us. After playing with trains, we went to a department store to buy Hinata and Simon's new shoes.

Just after getting shoes, Simon started to walk! 

He got excited a lot and showed his happyness, walking around in the baby shoe shop like a baby model.

Even when he hit his head against the corner of a shelf, he didn't cry as he was so happy.

Does this mean, he didn't feel like walking without good shoes in the past?

土曜日はみーちゃんとひなちゃんが遊びにきてくれて、しばらく遊んだ後、靴を買ってもらいににデパートへ。

靴を買ってもらったとたん、志門が歩き始めてびっくり。

今までは２，３歩歩いてもすぐにハイハイしていたのに、急に自信がついたらしく、大興奮で靴売り場を歩き回っていました。よろけて棚の角で思いっきりおでこをぶつけた時でさえも、歩けたうれしさが勝ったらしく泣きませんでした（笑）

まさか、今まではいい靴を買ってあげなかったから歩かなかったとか？？

We found only Bjørn and Meiko was playing with the train rails in the end, discussing how to make it better.

プラレール。

気付けば最後はビョァンとお母さんだけが夢中になって遊んでいました。

Simon fell in love with a waitress in a restaurant.

He didn't feel like eating anything, he just wanted to look at the girl!

帰りに立ち寄った石焼きの居酒屋で、志門が店員さんに恋をしてしまいました。

おなかはすいているはずなのに何も食べず、ひたすらその女性に愛想を振りまいていました。。(^^;)



When we left the restaurant, Simon got angry and looked back her many times and felt asleep on the way home.

お店を出ると志門は不機嫌になり、見送りをしてくれる店員さんを名残惜しそうに何度も振り返って見ていました。その後はすぐにふて寝。

Osaka for funeral

Meiko's aunt's husband  passed away due to decrepitude at 86 years old.
He lived 5 min. walk from our parents house and our relationship was close so  three of us went back to Osaka to participate his funeral on Thursday and Friday (We usually conduct 2 days ceremonies in Japan) even though it's not easy to take 3 hours train with a small boy.
By the way Simon got angry in Shinkansen (train) when he couldn't move the door at all because it was automatic one!


お世話になったおじさん（母方の祖母の妹の夫）が老衰のため86歳で他界したので、大阪へ帰りお葬式に参列してきました。
新幹線の中では、力いっぱい引っ張ってもドアが動かせないことに怒っていました。
まぁ自動ドアですので・・・


水筒を買ってもらってご機嫌にお茶を飲み続ける志門
Keep drinking tea with his favorite new bottle

We slept at my grandparents' house which is next to my parents house in Osaka.

Simon enjoyed 'doors' for long time as there were many size/type of doors at the house.

Solar eclipse 金環日食

Today, we were able to see solar eclipse at around 7.30 in Tokyo.　

It was a big surprize for me but Bjørn got up 6.30 this morning for that!

珍しくビョァンも早起きし、雲の切れ間からの金環日食を楽しみました（＾＾）

Even though I look strange, I enjoyed it.

怪しいですが・・・

Gemmeleg？

 かくれんぼ？

New works

On Sunday, I made Simon's T-shrt and my skirt.

Surprisingly, Bjørn started to make his shirt without using a sewing machine.

I know I cannot win by accuracy with him so I am going to win by speed, although we don't need to compete with each other.

日曜日は志門のTシャツと自分のスカートを作りました★

なんと、ビョァンは最近、手縫いでワイシャツを作り始めたのですが（なんとなく競争されているような・・・）丁寧さでは勝てないので、スピードで勝負することにしました（笑）



Trumpet

Simon learned how to use a trumpet!

今までは吸ったりなめたりしていただけだったけど、昨日ついに音を出すことを覚えました♪

Nurse?

It was a open day at the nursery on Tursday.

I visited the nursery to see how is Simon's dayly life pretending a new nurse. (That's the way in this nursery)

Bjørn did not join because he was sure that Simon would realize Bjørn.

Instead of Bjørn, Asako joined, pretending Simon's granma to the director of the nursery and pretending a new nurse to Simon.

Simon just gazed at us and it seemed he was wondering who we were.

As we imagined, Simon was active and playing around, without being shy nor nervous.

Simon looked very sleepy around 17.00, so Asako took him home earlier than planned and Simon took a nap until 19:30 after eating banana.

I stayed there to attend parents meeting after their leaving home.

昨日は志門の保育参観に行きました（＾＾）

朝子おばちゃんも志門の祖母ということで参加♪

日常の様子を見るというコンセプトで、新しい保育士のふりをして、他の子とも遊びながらこっそり志門の様子を観察しました★

Skål

乾杯！
Skål!

楽しい～～!(＠＠)!

乾杯！

Skål igen!

やっぱり楽しい~~!!

ヨーグルト、まだ食べたいなぁ～
Poor Simon, it's already emply.
Just imagination?

New job

Pizza

On Sunday, three of us visited Asako and Toshio.

Asako made pizza for us and we ate a lot.

日曜日は3人で鞍掛家にお邪魔して、自家製ピザをおなかいっぱい頂きました。

食べるのに夢中で、ピザの写真がなくてごめんなさい。

Guests

On Saturday morning, a friend from Uni visited us shortly.
土曜日の朝、出張の帰りに知子が遊びに来てくれました(^^)

And other old friend visited us with 2 years & 4 years boys in the afternoon and had dinner together.
夕方には、かや家族が遊びにきてくれて、一緒に夕食を♪

Bjørn's Mouse show!  White mouse became gray all of sudden??
ビョァンのねずみショー。白いねずみが急にグレーのねずみになった？
