Here is my dancing partner Jamie

Luckily Jamie was in Japan when I went so I invited him to be my dancing partner, say hi to Jamie everyone!

My first business trip

The other reason why we have to be in Japan is that we have to visit our BABY LOVES DISCO friends in Tokyo,
Auntie Nana and Marina are great, they hosted a great party and we had fun too. I particularly liked Auntie Nana because we share the same name, great girl thinks alike!!

Best Tempura in the World!!!!

My family has been going there for at least 30 years, mum said she has been going there at my age, now is my turn to carry on the family tradition.

Daddy's favorite is Seryna in Raponggi, he said the beef melts in the month, I tried it and I love it lots.

Just cannot get enough of Japan

We have hit Japan by storm, AGAIN.
twice in 1 month, my favorite place so far, wait till I try England at the end of the year when my sis is here with me.



One of the reason why we were there is that I can treat my mum to the best tempura and stone grill before I see my sis Valentina

Swimming Class

Today, I started my first swimming class. We were splashing water around and the teacher kept pouring water down my face, whilst Daddy kept making me drink water. When Mummy was holding me, I decided to pour water down her face, but I was not successful as my hands are too small. I was really exhausted after the class!

20 weeks tummy

I am 20 weeks old, see me in the tummy? Mummy says I must take after Daddy as I am very heavy compared to my sister and her tummy is already as big as it was when my sister was born. I am going to be a big girl!

My Name

Hello aunties & uncles, welcome to my blog. I am still only around 20cm now so you cannot really see me. Mummy & Daddy has spent days trying to think of a name for me, these were their choices: Natasha, Maia, Florentina, Pippa, Abigail but they finally chose Valentina because of what it means. They were married on Valentine's Day so thought that it would be nice to use that as my name. Also, Mummy's 2 favourite festivals are Christmas and Valentine's so Natalia (meaning: child of X'mas) and Valentina (meaning: child of Valentine's) are very appropriate because we are her 2 favourite girls!
They are still trying to think of a chinese name and a christian name for me, so will let you know when they have decided! I think I also need a nickname, otherwise grandma will not be able to call me as my name is too long!!

Father's Day

We celebrated Father's Day this year by entering the Father-Baby crawling race organised by Baby Kingdom. I came second in one race but decided that I wanted to sleep during my second race and laid down in the middle of the track. My parents though it was very funny and Mummy said that I took after Daddy!
I Love you Daddy

What Daddy does with me at home...

Mummy says that I have a very good Daddy because he does a lot of things with me at home..... I love my Daddy very much

My new hobby

I have a new hobby, watch the video and see.

Baby Loves Disco

Mummy & daddy have been working very hard with Auntie Amanda on the launch of Baby Loves Disco. Mummy made me practise dancing with her every night. We all got dressed up in our disco gear to the best party ever!

Driving My Daddy!

Mummy says that I had better learn driving now since Daddy will never drive us as he says that he likes to be the passenger!

We are leaving today!

Even though we are leaving today, we still made the most of it. We danced around the pool and then grandma went on the real trapeze. it was 7m high, very scary looking! We also had to say good bye to all the GOs. We will be back though and I will be bringing someone with me next time.... heehee

Last day

Today is our last full day, and my parents wanted to go out again to try the famous Okinawa noodles even though it was pouring with rain! I don't know why mummy is wearing that T-shirt and holding me, she must be talking about someone else.
After lunch we went back to the bar and got a drink, Mummy & I ordered a rum & coke for Daddy (we lost count how many he had!), I got a drink too. Of course we danced the night away and got a group photo too!

Stage Fright?

Went to dance on the stage tonight and I think I am destined to be on stage and I felt right at home on it!

Beef Meal

Today, Mummy & Daddy decided that we should all go out to dinner, so they chose a yummy beef place (as ishikawa beef is very famous), ok, I didn't eat any beef, but I did taste the beef fried rice! I got a big chair and they gave me some toys and books to play with. I was very happy, see the big smile?

Activites

Everyday and every night, there are lots of things we can do here. We watch shows and can listen to the music at the bar. See how brave my daddy and my grandma is? They are taking the circus class and trying the trapeze! I can learn when I am 4.

Beach time

Our first day here was really fun, we went swimming in the pool in the morning and then after lunch, I had my first dip in the ocean. I also joined the mini club sandcastle competition, Daddy wanted to make me into a mermaid, but I prefer playing with sand rather than being buried in it, so they had to turn it into a big fish. At the end, I won a certificate for it! I love playing on the beach.
It was a hot day and grandma went snorkelling whilst both my parents got sun burnt on the beach!
