		<title>Anna Sui Tote Winners</title>
		<description><![CDATA[WOW it's been awhile as usual. I apologize for the delay of the announcement of my giveaway winners. I have been very busy with my work, Azumi's school meetings, and family affairs. Yeah, Azumi will officially become a pre-schooler on October that's why I have to quit the job that I have come to love so much. I'm excited and a bit sad because I'm gonna miss my co-workers. I'll blog about it next time. Hopefully, next month, I can go back to my normal blogging routine. I really miss blogging.

		<title>Freezer Pop Treat</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Japan gets very hot in the summer. There is a lot of humidity so I think it's hotter than Philippines because there is barely a breeze to be felt.

		<title>First Movie Theatre Experience</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Finally, Azumi had her first movie experience last wednesday. Her Dad was kinda worried at first because she might just run around or get bored in the middle. BUT I'm glad she did well and seems to be enjoying the whole time. It was funny the moment we sat down in our chairs, she was amazed to see how big the screen was. She even said "look mama, HUMONGOUS tv" --- wow! HUMONGOUS?! I don't even use that word.

Well, thanks Sesame Street Podcast where Anzu learns some of her vocabularies. It's a little bargain that is downloadable through Itunes for free. It features Murray and other Sesame Street Muppets with Celebrity guests as they introduce kids to new vocabulary word at the beginning of each episode, focuses on building children's language and vocabulary skills. I must say it works perfectly for Anzu (and for me while I do the chores in the morning)

Anyway,

Because we want her "first movie" experience to be successful, we chose to watch the movie she'll surely love, ANPANMAN at Mycal Warner Cinemas inside the Aeon Mall. It's a 90 minute movie and the main character is the most popular here in Japan

Normally, children age 0-3 years old are free but since it's supposed to be a children's movie, kids are charged ￥900 while ￥1,800 for adults -- kinda expensive huh.

		<title>Caught In The Act</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It's funny that I don't even paint my nails and then I would catch Anzu doodling her nails with a red pen in the corner while I am busy with my chores at the kitchen.

It was the reason why there was a sudden unusual silence in our living room during her most Peak Hour. Good thing it was washable and non toxic. <a href="http://www.labambita.com/2011/07/caught-in-the-act/">Read more...</a>]]></description>

		<title>Let&#8217;s Count in Spanish</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just wanna a share this short clip of Anzu counting in Spanish (english and japanese) but kept on being destructed with the things she sees while we are driving our way home.
&#160;

Counting In English and Spanish part 1
I didn't mean to teach her spanish language but she learns it from TV, as she enjoys watching Dora The Explorer. I appreciate that Dora is trying to teach kids another language which is good since we want Azumi to be a multi-ligual child.

&#160;

As of now, we are consistent in raising her to be an English-Japanese bilingual child and eventually teach her Tagalog. My husband likes the idea of learning the english language right along with our little girl. I speak to her only English while Hubby talks to her in Japanese but sometimes switches between the two tongues lol (since he's also learning english).

Right now she is getting a good foundation for English which she will need in communicating with our (my) family who doesn't speak in Japanese. Some of my oldies here are worried that our daughter might have a language confusion.

Hmmm I heard people say that the best time to introduce another language to a child is while they are babies.

What do you think? Thoughts and opinions about raising a bilingual/multilingual child are very much welcome :)
Much
