Prosperity to live life to the fullest
Serene Moments to bring peace and happiness
May each new day bring for a new joy and new hopes
Happy New Year to Everyone!
Its been a very long holiday for us and this year this will be my first post. This morning three of us went to the nearest Jinja and offered a pray to Kamisama hoping this new year will be good for us. We hope for Blessings and good health, and no accidents nor unwanted things to come.
Thank you for visiting my blog. I am becoming more mobile now and mom almost cannot take her eyes from me for the reason I may get hurt from falling. Everyday I am struggling to crawl and stand by myself in my playpen even I fall many times
When I’m on a good mood I can play alone
for long period of time while having some baby talks
Christmas is fast approaching and you can see Christmas trees and Christmas decorations on malls and supermarkets and any public establishments. I remember the first time I saw Christmas tree was inside the Okinawa mall it was huge in size with white sparkling balls as decorations that I wanted to touch. Since then whenever I see decorated Christmas tree it will always bring a big smile to my face.
I am a baby blessed with thick hair since I was a newborn and now at nine months it grows longer and thicker that always blocking my sight that is why I’m always rubbing my eyes. Sometimes mom uses a hair accesories such as clips and a tie but it easily fall from my slippery hair so she bought this headband with crab design few days ago.
You can tell that I liked it because I did not try to pull nor remove it from my head.
They (mom & dad) should have done this before when I was a newborn, even its a little late they done this last night, getting my hands and foot prints at me 9 months old.
Look at those tiny hands and foot prints … I wonder how it will grow bigger as I grow older.

NAME:Erika
AGE: 9 months old
WORK: crying and enjoying myself are my main job, but I was obliged to learn things they teaches me
LIKE/ LOVE: go on driving, I like bath time
DON’T LIKE/ HATE: I don’t like when mom or somebody told me “don’t” when I’m enjoying pulling the curtain or when I touch interesting things like newspaper that I’ll turn into pieces, cellphone and wires and other things I reached.
Tadaima is a Japanese word use when someone came back to his own house which means “I’m home” and the usual response to this is okaerinasai means “welcome back” or “welcome home”. So I’m home now after three days of staying in Okinawa with mom and dad. Although its a little late here is the summary and some photos of our trip.
Early in the morning of Saturday when mom woke me up, even I’m still sleepy I gave her a smile while she changed my dress to a white long sleeve shirt and a pink jumper style dress and because its cold she wrapped my body with white furry jacket. About seven when Dad drive us to the Ferry terminal and we ride a ship which brought us to International Airport for exactly 40 mins.
This coming Saturday November 8 Dad will go to his company’s travel to Okinawa and fortunately me and mom can go with him. This will be my first trip so mom although excited is a little bit worried for me and now busy preparing for our baggage and needs. The plan is early in the morning of Saturday we will drive to the port to ride a ship that will take us to the airport. They say it takes about three hours inside the plane to reach Okinawa.
