HinaMatsuri

If you're following this blog (and Kizuna's) maybe you know by now that March 3rd is celebrated annually as the girl's day in Japan. This event which is called Hinamatsuri is special day where parents wish for their girls' happiness and good health all throughout the year. (read my last year's post, Ohinasama)

Ohinasama dolls are being displayed inside the house, usually in the living room. These dolls are not just an ordinary Japanese Dolls. They're especially made just for this time of the year and must be kept atleast a day after the event.

Day 62 of 2010's (mar 3, wednesday)

This year, we celebrated it in the simplest way so I don't have much to share about the foods, et al. But visit my friend's page HERE to know and see more about how we usually celebrate Hinamatsuri.

Joy Ride

I love driving, so as honeyb.. We used to go out of town atleast twice a month when we were still dating.. usually it was always unplanned. We still drive around though but we rarely go out of towns because of our lil girl.. We just drive around and go somewhere..

Sometimes out of blue, we go out and just drive around the city, have take out from different food chains such as mcdo, moss burger, foods from convenience store... well Starbucks drivethru is my/our favorite..

SHowing some photos of our Lil Anzu inside our car.. sitting in a Child Car Seat, which is a must here in Japan...

Lil Anzu's precious car, a birthday gift from her pretty Tita Clang

Latest photo inside the car.. sleepy baby

Speaking of driving, I'm really looking forward to finally get a Japanese License this year. IDL is not acceptable anymore.. They say it's not that easy to get it, the exam is so tricky and there are rules and processes to follow. NO PAIN NO GAIN.

Geesh, I have to start reviewing now (but the problem is, im soooo lazy heck!)

join us and share your kids' moments here at

First Day

Late post =( As much as I wanted to blog about Anzu's first day in pre-school (last week tuesday, mar 2), I would just like to make this post as simple and short as possible.. Let the photos do the further talking lol.

Day 61 of 2010's ( tuesday, mar 2)

This is Anzu's School Bag and learning supplies, provided by her school

How was our first day in school? It was fine. Although Anzu wasn'T that cooperative grrr... SHe was playful and didn't want to be held.. The one hour class consist of 4 programs, which includes "mom and child interaction" where we sing and dance together.. Anzu wanted to sing and dance beside the teacher instead lol. I'm just glad she wasn't really shy girl after all. 3 of her classmates cried and Anzu was friendly enough to give her toy to the little boy crying beside us..

No matter how I love taking Anzu's photos, especially her special moments and milestones, I know when is the right time to do it... kakahiya naman mamicture sa loob ng classroom so here is a shot taken right after saying goodbye to her dear classmates. Parang ayaw na umuwi lol

Treated ourselves with something sweet at Coldstone... Just a great day to have Ice cream
