Sweet Things: September 2010
http://mommyinjapan.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, September 07, 2010. Good news for fans of Old Navy. Even though it's still soooo hot outside, or maybe *especially* when it's hot outside, I like to start thinking about things I need to do before Fall comes. Apparently this year the Summer is going to last so long that Fall is going to get lost in the shuffle and we'll head right towards Winter but that doesn't really bother me. As long as it cools down, I'll be happy. It said that they will now be offering International Shipping! I also fixed ...

Sweet Things: all I want for Christmas...
http://mommyinjapan.blogspot.com/2009/12/all-i-want-for-christmas.html
Tuesday, December 01, 2009. All I want for Christmas. So I brought up the Wii conversation with Chikara. Is anybody else having a hard time deciding what to get their kids for Christmas? Maybe it's just me. Can I explain? Yes, because this is my blog (even though I haven't written for awhile). So my reasons for not buying a Wii are plentiful and my reasons for buying a Wii are that I don't have any other good ideas for Christmas presents and I think it'd be fun. Arghh. I love the Muppets! If you saw your...

Sweet Things: jumping the first hurdle...
http://mommyinjapan.blogspot.com/2010/08/jumping-next-hurdle.html
Thursday, August 19, 2010. Jumping the first hurdle. I guess if we had nowhere to go then it wouldn't be a problem but we had two camps coming up and we needed to be able to drive at least an hour away safely. I walked into the house and told Chikara what had happened. And Chikara got back home around 10:30. I was really relieved to have made that decision. With both cars we drove to Chikara's company to drop off our Odysey. It was a tedious drive with lots of lights and slow drivers (with an impromp...

Sweet Things: bullet points now and then
http://mommyinjapan.blogspot.com/2010/10/i-found-this-post-that-i-had-saved-as.html
Saturday, October 02, 2010. Bullet points now and then. I found this post from October 2009 that I had saved as a draft for some reason. It's so funny to look back and remember what we were going through and how far we've come. I never did the paperwork. It was too complicated (typical) for too little return. The weather turned out fabulous and I was able to go and cheer Sakura on and then hop on the plane the next day for a shopping trip with my mom and sister! Sat Oct 02, 04:40:00 PM. I would like to r...

Sweet Things: socializing
http://mommyinjapan.blogspot.com/2009/09/socializing.html
Saturday, September 12, 2009. I find that between Emi and Misaki, Misaki is definitely more social. She exchanges phone numbers and she makes plans to meet friends after school way more than Emi does. Emi does occasionally but I find that kids just show up at our house and ask Emi to play rather than make plans ahead of time. It's not a big deal. They have both made and kept friends in their own way. We had to go to the doctor after school yesterday (Emi's having a wart burned off - gross! Oh wow. I ...

Sweet Things: with the best of intentions
http://mommyinjapan.blogspot.com/2008/09/with-best-of-intentions.html
Thursday, September 04, 2008. With the best of intentions. For some reason all I can think of is redecorating Sakura and Natsuki's bedroom. I know in my brain somewhere that there is too much going this month and that I need to put it off until October if there is going to be any chance of actually completing the project in a reasonable amount of time. You know, so it doesn't drag on for months and months. BUT, Ikea came out with their 2009 catalogue. Drat. Isn't this too cute? These curtains look like a...

Sweet Things: October 2010
http://mommyinjapan.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 04, 2010. Sakura and Natsuki's room. Two years ago I posted about my ideas for redecorating Sakura and Natsuki's room. 65279;. They love to organize their princess shoes like this! 65279;. The boxes hold all of their toys. The bottom two are full of dolls! I think I've only bought two stuffed animals since Emi was born but as you can see there are enough to fill a whole basket! Where do they come from? These wall lamps are so adorable. Any help would be appreciated. Misaki slipped (...

Sweet Things: two steps forward...
http://mommyinjapan.blogspot.com/2010/09/two-steps-forward.html
Friday, September 03, 2010. On Monday I went to the doctor and took the radioactive iodine. I also fixed our bed yesterday. Earlier this year the slats on Chikara's side of the bed would occasionally fall out. I know he moves a lot at night but it was just ridiculous! So all of that is good, right! By the Chikara came home at 10pm he was pretty down. Seems like I'll need to write my to-do list over again. Good morning Sarah,. Im glad Chikaras leg is improving. Sat Sep 04, 06:18:00 AM. Yes, when people ha...

Sweet Things: what a cute daddy
http://mommyinjapan.blogspot.com/2010/01/what-cute-daddy.html
Friday, January 29, 2010. What a cute daddy. I was going through the pictures on our computer today and found a collection that I had put together for Chikara to celebrate Father's Day a few years ago. A few are so cute that I have to share. Asleep with Emi (1 month old). Asleep with Misaki (2 months old). Asleep with Natsuki (3 months old). No pictures asleep with Sakura but this is cute! An extra bonus pic asleep with Misaki (2 years old). Wed Feb 10, 05:30:00 PM. Mon Feb 22, 09:13:00 PM.
