06/21/08.. Mealtimes
Mealtimes for Kaisei are becoming more interesting these days. He has started to eat rice cereal and is trying out new veggies & fruits. So far he likes applesauce & sweet potatoes, but doesn't like peaches. He likes when I let him hold the spoon or when I put some cereal on his high chair to mash with his hands. He's all boy! Yesterday his first tooth poked through! We were excited!

Kaisei is now 6 months old. We cannot believe its already been half a year since he arrived! Kaisei is such a happy boy - he smiles and laughs a lot! He can sit up completely on his own unsupported, he is eating rice cereal with applesauce in the mornings, he likes to play with his feet and suck on his own toes, and I'm pretty sure I heard him say "Mama" the other day!

The company I work for, Enna had a film shoot in Vancouver, Canada. It was for the upcoming training video for motivating workers to boost their productivity. It was a lot of fun!

Kaisei is almost 6 months old. Time is flying by. Today he was practicing standing all by himself while hanging onto the side of the ottoman. His legs are so strong! He is starting to get used to eating a little bit of rice cereal for breakfast - although most of it just ends up on his face!

05/26/08.. Memorial Day
Hooray for three day weekends! This Memorial Day we spent the weekend together at home with Kaisei. He is such a sweetheart! Lately he has been getting lots of compliments about his hair-do which sticks straight up in front. Jun likes to spike it up with water! Its very cute!

05/05/08.. Kaisei almost 5 months old
Kaisei is almost 5 months old now and I am coming up on my very first Mother's Day! He is becoming quite vocal and has learned a few new tricks really recently. He can now roll all the way over by himself and sit up using his hands to support himself. He likes to stick his tongue out and to be tickled. He is now a world traveller having just gotten back from his very first trip to Japan where he got to spend time with his grandparents & aunts. We had a great time and got lots of amazing photos to share with him when he gets older. The most impressive part of the trip was how well Kaisei did on the long plane rides. He was such a good boy!
海星ももう少しで生後5ヶ月になります。2−3日前から自分で寝返りを打つこともできました。日本への初めての旅も無事に終わり、またアメリカでの生活に戻りました。飛行機のなかでは全然泣かなかったぞ!日本の親戚のみんな、おじいちゃん・おばあちゃんにも会えて良かったね!

04/04/08.. Kaisei 4 months old
Kaisei is already four months old now! He is becoming quite the "talker" and loves to smile and laugh - especially when he's with his daddy! He can almost roll all the way over - he should have it mastered in a few days. He is about to take his first trip to Japan this month - we hope he will enjoy the 11 hour plane ride!
海星、もう少しで4ヶ月、今日もう少しのところで自分で寝返りが打てるようになりました。後もう少しだね。来週の土曜日には日本に2週間の旅へと出発します。おばあちゃん、おじいちゃんと初めて会えるね。




03/17/08.. Kaisei 3 months old
Kaisei is now 3 months old. He is developing quite a personality. He is smiling, laughing and cooing often and is able to use his hands now to pick up toys. He is also working on learning to roll over. We think he will figure it out very soon.
もう3ヶ月ちょっと。首があがるようになりました。よく笑うようにもなったよ。

02/03/07.. Kaisei 7 weeks old
海星うまれて7週間目。しっかりしてきました。笑顔をみせるようになり、すくすく成長しています。体重も6キログラム。4月に日本に帰る予定をたてました。飛行機大丈夫かな?
Kaisei is now 7 weeks old and is growing so fast! He was 12.5 pounds at his last doctor's appointment last week. He is beginning to smile now and has started making all sorts of cute noises. We are planning a trip to Japan in April when he will get to meet the rest of his family. We are all very excited!




01/07/07.. Kaisei 4 weeks old.
Kaisei is already 4 weeks old! We cannot believe how quickly time is going by. He is growing so fast and his appearance seems to change almost everyday. He is looking more and more like his daddy - he is one handsome boy!! He still has his days and nights mixed up, but is improving slightly. He is such a sweet baby and is beginning to smile and make very cute noises.
海星うまれて早くも4週間です。おかさんの母乳も順調に出てきて、すくすく健康に育ってます。目もぱっちりと開けてキョロキョロとみるようになりました。でもちょっとまだ夜泣きが続くね。ときどき眉毛をかしめて真剣な顔を見せるよ。なにを考えてるのだろうかね?




12/30/07.. New Year’s Gift From Japan
今年ももうすぐ終わり。。今日は日本からの家族からプレゼントを受け取りました。海星は初めてのお年玉とおばちゃんから手作りのキルト毛布を受け取りました。ありがとう!



12/25/07.. Kaisei is 2 weeks old
We cannot believe how fast time is going by. Our son is already two weeks old! We just celebrated his first Christmas - he is the best gift we could have ever received. He was dressed in a very cute snowman outfit for the occasion and was quite handsome! He had his two week checkup at his pediatrician's office yesterday and is doing great! He has grown 1/2 inch in length and 8 oz in weight since he was born. His "look" seems to change everyday. He is beginning to acquire more and more of his mommy's facial traits, but we still think he looks most like his daddy. We are loving being parents!!
海星が生まれ、早くも2週間が経とうとしています。健康ですくすく、夜泣きには悩まされますが成長しています。今日は初めてのクリスマスを迎えました。海星へのプレゼントはヤギの縫いぐるみ。海の音や鳥の鳴き声が縫いぐるみなら鳴ります。
