This Video is Makes Me Say, kawaiiiiii!

Lately, everyone has been asking us when we're leaving Japan for good.  The plan still hasn't changed :), we're leaving before Baby K is school-aged... probably. Next stop, Hawaii or wherever the Lord leads us.

I realized I rarely share with you the things I love about Japan anymore.  Living here has become so regular and normal that I hardly ever feel motivated to share stuff with my folks back home anymore.  I'm going to change that by regularly sharing things with you that I like or find interesting here. 

On the flip side, when I am back in the US, I am more likely to snap a photo of something of something to share with others when I return to Japan.  Funny.

Anyway, I stumbled across a video that just tickles me for a few reasons. 

1.  It's so cute.  It's just makes me say 'kawaiiiii' in my most authentic high-pitched Japanese voice!

2.  It's so weird.  But, weird things kind of make sense here in a weird sorta way.

3.  It's so Japan.  I say that because it's one of those songs that you'll hear in a convenience store, on a shopping trip, or if you're lucky, at karaoke with friends.

4.  I want an ichigo (strawberry) hat for Baby K, she would look so cute in that!

Now that I've hyped it up, have a looksy :).

 

3 Years + 5 Months + 8 Random Things + Water Bottles = So Much to Be Thankful For!

 


(Don't you just love the the title of this post?) 

Yesterday we celebrated our 3-year anniversary and Baby K's 5 Month birthday!  Can't believe I've been a wife for three years, who would have thought?  Actually, I would have.  But, people often tell me they didn't think I was the marrying type because I was so career-driven.  Eh? ;) That just goes to show, just because a young woman is about her business doesn't mean she can't and won't settle down.  She's probably waiting patiently for someone who's all about HIS business to come along, so they can handle their business together.  Okay, that's enough sentences with 'business' in it, hehehe.  You get what I'm saying!

Anywho, our little angel is 5 months old and boy, is she a joy!!  Oh how we love her so much!  She's an active little something and so cuddly wuddly!  Always climbing trying to get somewhere.  She smiles and laughs all of the time.  She rolls over, and she knows how to use her voice to get anything she wants.  Yep, we love her to peices.
