hey, how come you got a present on MY birthday?!

 

BAIKIN MAN chocolate... my favorite...

 

thank you Maiguri mama!

M(No.2) turned 2!!!
I actually couldn't believe that he was barely 2 years old because he is such a mature little boy!! one of the reasons why we felt like he was big was because he started to talk early. By the time he was 18 months old, he was able to talk to us by sentences for anything already. (not like 2 words or 3 words) He also understood what we were telling him well, too. In addition, he was very good at copying everything his big brother did. they are only 15 months apart, so it seemed M(No.2) totally believed that he could always do as much as his brother could do. in fact, he quickly learns how to do things from his big brother. sometimes it seemed it's not fair for his big brother M(No.1). M(No.1) was finally was able to do things after his long efforts, but then his little brother started doing the same thing in a few days... anyway, we pretty much forgot that he wasn't even two!!!

we didn't throw a big party for him, but we just had a little party as a family. He still got many presents from his daddy, grandparents, and friends...! By the way, they knew that his big brother would steal everything M(No.2) would get, so they gave presents to M(No.1) as well!!! it was pretty funny. it really felt more like Christmas than a birthday;) M(daddy) even bought a little thing for M(No.3), who wouldn't care if she got anything or not... well it was a pretty interesting birthday, but for sure M(No.2) was so excited to get so many presents! M(No.1) was definitely excited as well...!!! they got Lightning McQueen, Thomas, Mickey Mouse, Tigger and pooh, and Baikin Man (Baikin means germ; Baikin Man is a bad guy from a Japanese cartoon that is very popular to toddlers in Japan). They pretty much got everything they liked!

M(No.2) also decorated his own birthday cake! he put cream and strawberried on the cake. I don' think I could do better than he... for real! M(No.2) was very happy that he got to blow the candles. He kept blowing the candles so hard that he made me worry that he would be out of breath. he was very cute though.
however, we opened presents before actually eating the birthday cake, so they even forgot to eat it because they were too excited about all the presents... well it's okay as long as kids are happy.

my husband and I are so grateful to have M(No.2). he's been such a peacemaker of our family. he truly has a sweet spirit. we love you M(No.2)!

家族のピースメーカー、Ｍ（次男）だよぉ～　ごぶさたしてたけどみんなお元気ですか~？
ぼくも先日無事に２歳になりました。
おかあさんは、「あんたまだ二歳になってなかったの！？！」ってびっくりしてたし。
おいおい、それくらいおぼえといてよっ

ぼくが１歳児にしてはあまりにもかしこい！せいらしい。お兄ちゃんを見てぼく要領よくいろんなことやっちゃうから。当然、おにいちゃんができることは、ぼくもできるはずっ！って思ってるから。

おしゃべりも、けっこうじょうずなんですよぼく、自分で言うのもなんだけど。

僕のお誕生日、家族だけでお祝いしたけど、楽しかったよ。
お昼間は、お兄ちゃんだけお昼寝してる間に、おかあさんとふたりでベランダでシャボン玉して。
お父さんが帰ってきたらみんなでご馳走食べたよ。
そのあと、お母さんが僕にケーキのデコレーションやれっていうから、不器用なお母さんの代わりにクリームぬって、苺をのせてあげました。いちごたっぷり、おいしそうでしょぅ。

ぼくがローソク消していいよって言われてうれしくって…一生懸命フーフーしまくって息が切れてもまだフーフーしまくってがんばったよ。おかあさん、僕が倒れるかと心配したらしいけど、ぼくもそこまでヤワじゃないぜい。

ぼくが主役ってあんまりないことだから、うれしかった。いつも、なんでもお兄ちゃんがとっちゃうんだもんね～　

お誕生日プレゼントも、ダッダや、ＭりちゃんＫじい、まいぐりママからいっぱいもらっちゃった。ありがとうね！
大好きなバイキンマンのチョコや、トーマスや、カーズ、ミッキーとかいろいろ、大好きなものいっぱい。
普段こんなにおもちゃ買ってもらったことなくってぼくもうケーキがのどをとおらなくなるくらい興奮しちゃったよ。でも、なぜかぼくのお誕生日なのにお兄ちゃんも同じくらいぷれぜんともらってたんですけど？！？！みんな、ぼくだけにあげたら結局お兄ちゃんにとられて僕が泣くはめになるってわかってたみたい。おにいちゃんったら、まったくも～…　おかあさんは、ぼくの誕生日っていうより、クリスマスみたいだって言ってた。みんながプレゼントもらってたし～　ちっちゃな妹にまで、お父さんおもちゃ買ってあげてた。ぼくとお兄ちゃんだけにあげたらかわいそうって思ったらしいよ。主役はぼくだよ、忘れるなぃ！

最近反抗期に突入してきた僕だけど、相変わらず癒し系で行こうと思ってるんで、よろしくね～！
