Some Randon Pictures of this week

Kids grow up so fast. They bring me and Hiro lots of happiness everyday. Sometimes, I just cannot help myself to take them pictures. I wish I could remember all the happy and upset moments of Mai and Haru. Being a stay-home mommy is a great blessing. Thanks Hiro for working so hard for the family so that I could be a stay-home mom and enjoy being with kids all the time.

小孩子真的長的很快. 總覺得才剛剛抱在懷裡餵奶, 一下子就會跑會跳, 會追給我們打. 每一天Mai and Haru都為我和Hiro帶還很多很棒的時光. 有時候我就是沒辦法控制我自己不去為他們拍照. 他們的情緒也時時刻刻都不同, 上一秒兩姊弟才在搶玩具而哭鬧, 下一秒兩個人又坐在一起玩得不亦樂乎. 能當一個全職媽咪其實很幸運. 每一刻都能陪他們一起成長. 真的很感謝為家庭付出和犧牲很多的daddy. 如果不是他的辛勤工作, 我大概就不會像現在一樣當個全職媽咪了. 養孩子說不累是不可能的,不過當負母的感覺和責任真的很棒.

Mai is so happy when she receives the package from Y-ma. 開心的姊姊.

Activity for Dec. from Mai's Pre-school

Mai's pre-school provides all the students-to-be a wonderful and spiritous activity for this month. The teachers teach us many cute children songs and Christmas songs. At the same time, they also teach us making a cute paper Christmas tree. In the end of the activity day, they also give all the kids a great story time. Although school is not yet ready until next year April. Mai cannot wait to be the part of this school family.

Mai明年4月開學的幼稚園,提供了一個很棒又很有靈性的活動日在這個很棒的12月份. 我們學習很多日本的兒歌和聖誕節的歌曲. 同時, 我們也一起動手製作了屬於我們的聖誕樹. 在活動日的尾聲, 老師們更提供了一個很棒的故事時間. 所有的新生們都好享受這個很特別的活動日. 同時我們都很期待下個月的活動呢!

Our Christmas Tree

We finally set up the Christmas tree for this year. Since we live in a small place, we got a small tree as well. Mai helps to decorate the tree a lot. She enjoys the tree so much. Haru is also trying to pull out all the decorations. When we light up, both of Mai and Haru sit quietly in front of the tree. Thank you for Y-ma's present. We really enjoy our Christmas tree. Santa, are you coming soon?!

我們終於裝飾好了聖誕樹. 由於我們在住的房子真的是太小了,所以我們有一顆小小的聖誕樹. Mai真的非常開心,一邊幫忙我裝飾樹,一邊告訴我一定要叫聖誕老公公來我們家參觀. 同時呢! Haru也很認真的在拆掉我們佈置好的裝飾品. 但當我們點燈時,兩個小的都好安靜地坐在聖誕樹前看著一閃一閃的燈. 看著她們眼中的期待, 我真的好開心. 聖誕老公公快來. Mai and Haru都在等你喔! 感謝阿嬤今年的禮物. 我們真的好喜歡我們的聖誕樹.

My B-Day!

My B-day finally comes in the end of this year. Time flies so fast that I'm 27 now and cannot believe that I'm actually 27 already. Somehow, I just feel I'm not mature enough to be the age of 27. But, I do really enjoy my B-day this year with my family. Thank you so much for all the friends and family that you take care of me until now.
Wish I'm not getting old. Wish I could be a better daughter when I'm home with my parents. Wish I could be a better wife and mommy. Wish I could be a better friend. Lots of wish.....:p
But, I really don't want to be older and older..........Time, please stop for a while.........

真的度過了很美好的一天..........生日真的很棒. 不過很希望自己不要再變老了.

Norovirus...not fun at all. 生病的一週.

這幾天孩子們和Hiro都相繼感染了Norovirus.
起先的兩天,他們上吐下瀉地.
吃什麼就立刻吐出來,
或是腹瀉地很厲害,
我真的都不知道該怎麼照顧這兩小一大的病人.
再過來的第3天開始出現感冒的症狀,
流鼻水,咳嚋如同一般的感冒.

對於我這個做媽咪的,真的是一大挑戰和考驗.
3個人都食慾不振外,
還多了點脾氣要應付.
到今天才能真的判斷該讓他們服用什麼藥品了.
外婆從台灣寄來的感冒藥也終於能派上用場了.
住在日本的我們,
吃不慣也吃不好日本醫院給的藥品,
想想還真的是台灣的感冒藥有效.

希望這兩小一大的病人們能漸漸恢復體力和復原.
這一個星期來,
我這個台灣媽咪真的好累.
Aloha Friday和週末都要來了,
媽咪也想休息一下下就好.

感謝台灣阿嬤不厭其煩地聽我這個不堅強的女兒的哭訴.
雖然她沒辦法跟我們住在一起照顧我們,
但是我真的很需要我自己媽媽的鼓勵和安慰.

A happy outdoor day

Last week had been a wonderful week for all of us. Although the weather was cold, the entire week had not rained. Each day we spent some time in the afternoon to enjoy some outdoor activities. Mai loved to ride her own pink bike and Haru also enjoyed his little Anpanman car. Mayu did not bring her own bike on that day we went out for fun. I let Mayu ride Mai's little Anpanman bike for fun. Three of them had a wonderful time.

上個星期真的很棒,雖然日本的天氣已經非常寒冷了,但只要不下雨,出太陽,對我這個台灣長大的孩子就是一個很大的祝福了. 當天氣很棒時(不下雨時),我就會維持我們在夏威夷的習慣,讓孩子們到外面去跑跑享受一下戶外的活動. Mai很喜歡騎她生日時得到的粉紅色的腳踏車. Haru也很愛他的麵包超人的小車子. Mayu那天並沒有帶她自己的Pooh的腳踏車,所以我讓她使用小號一點的麵包超人的腳踏車. 她們真的玩的很盡興.
