2Y1M (JP) - Daily Walk with Yee
Daddy brought Yee to the kids department of a nearby shopping centre. There was a toy dog barking. Yee went up to it, put her finger to her lips and said, "shh...shh." to the dog.

2Y1M (JP) - Daily Walk with Yee
After seeing Daddy exercises, Yee exercises too...
Her toes touching her eyebrows!
Yee and her Elmo bag
Mummy eager to show off Yee's nice hair style
On our way to Japanese class on Saturday morning. This was the second time Yee joined.
Isn't this flower gorgeous?
Yee loves dogs and trying to get their attention.
Patting the dog
At dinnertime, Yee fell aslept.

2Y1M (JP) - Daily Walk with Yee
Kinder Nursery
Today, we went to 駅前公園 to play with water. Yee-chan wore diaper and played with the water. Yee-chan loves playing with the water. She poured water into the bucket and poured out many times. I think she will want to play with water again when the weather is good.
Combination of Languages
Yee started to combine Japanese and English. Her fave combination is any English words with ない (which means 'not').
Case 1:
When we came home from school. I told her to take off her shoes and socks. Yee removed her shoes but not her socks. I asked her again. And she said, "shoe ない".
Case 2:
I gave her apple for supper tonight, Yee did not eat it. When I asked her, she said, "appleない".
Change of Clothes
These two evenings, when Yee wetted her shirt, she would take it off and get a new piece from the wardrobe. Such 'quick' change would mean more laundry time for mum.

2Y1M (JP) - Daily Walk with Yee
Kinder Nursery
Today, we had physical exercise in the room. Yee-chan was shy and did not do it. After that, the children were running and Yee ran happily too. She ran for a long while by herself. She ran hard till the end.
Way Home
When we reached the bike park, Yee did not want to go home. So we took a stroll around the neighbourhood. Yee often squatted to look at the ants.
These are taken with self-view from the mobile. Yee was fascinated when she saw her own image on the mobile.
Supper Time
During supper (papaya), Yee dirtied her shirt a little. Yee took off her shirt, passed to me and said, "Dirty." Then she went to the wardrobe to get a new piece.

Milestones - Yee Dress Herself For School
Yee has been wearing pants on her own. Last night, she wore her shirt without any help. This morning, she put on her own shirt and then pants. While she was dressing herself, I hoped that she has the correct side as she refused any help. Her top was fine but her pants was wrong side (fortunately, it was not obvious). And she was watching nursery rhymes from youtube while dressing. This little girl can surely multi-task.
Kinder Nursery
Today, we went to 三町畑（さんちゅうはた）park. Yee-chan played happily on the swing. When we returned to the nursery, we bathed. Yee-chan did not cry at all and stood motionlessly. After shower, she was very happy.
Independence
After shower, I let Yee wore the diaper, shirt and pants on her own. She took her time to wear them. When she finished, this is her achievement ...
her top is reverse.

2Y1M (JP) - Daily Walk with Yee
Kinder Nursery
We went o 南根（みなみね）park. We have not been there for a while. Yee-chan sat on the swing. There were many pigeons. Yee-chan said, “Pigeons” and chased them. Yee-chan likes pigeons very much.
Drawing Time
We have not drawn for a while. This evening, I was glad that I did it with Yee. While I was drawing with her, Yee pushed her little green stool to me and asked me to sit on it. Then she sat in front of me and continued to draw. I realize that she did not want me to write. I was surprised at the tactic that she used. Later, she 'taught' dancing chick to draw.
