Sakura / サクラ Apr. 23

I've heard that the cherry blossom bloomed so we went to Kungsträdgården, Stockholm's best sakura sights, this afternoon.

Yes, it's beautiful!!!

Nothing has bloomed in our neighborhood but it's early here in the middle of the town.

It was little chilly but the sun was out and I think it was the best day to come here and see the stunning sakura!

どうやらサクラが咲いたって風の噂で聞いたので ストックホルムのサクラの名所 Kungsträdgården(クングストレッドゴーデン)へ みんなで行ってきましたぁ!

咲いてたぁ〜!!!

うちの近所はまだ咲いてなかったけど 街の中心のここはこんなに咲いてた!

ちょっと肌寒かったけど 太陽が出ていい天気でちょうどいい日に来れた(o^^o)

        Kaiya                      Mommy                    Mato
I asked daddy to take photos and this happens...no sakura included. lol
ダディにカメラお願いしたら サクラ入ってねー(笑)



Kaiya and Mato were...

KaiyaとMatoはというと・・・。

      Kaiya        Mato



Kaiya, first of all, does not like crowds.  She was trembling whole the time.

She looks like smiling in the photos but that's because she was nervous, breathing hard and her tongue was sticking out.

人がたくさんいるところが苦手なKaiyaは 常にガクブル。

笑顔のように見えるけど 緊張で舌を出して息が荒いからです(^^;)

Kaiya

Kaiya



Mato, on the other hand, doesn't care about the crowds and he was being him. :)

Actually he wanted to chase after doves than look at the sakura. lol

Matoは人混みとか全然気にならない子。

花より鳩を追っかけたくてしかたなかったけど(笑)

Kaiya             Mato

Kaiya



Mato says "Mommy, this doesn't look like I can eat.  I don't want it."

Mato曰く "マミー これ食べれないから いらない" だそうです。

Mato



Too nervous to care about what she got on her head. lol

されるがままKaiya(笑)

Perfect morning walk / 森あさんぽ日和 Apr. 22

It seemed like a perfect sunny day to go and take a walk in the woods today when we woke up :)))

And it was a perfect place for them to run and have fun!!!

なかなか天気のいい朝だったので 朝の散歩は森へ!

今日は走るねぇ〜!



Mato

Kaiya              Mato



Today's best shot :)

絵になるねぇ〜( ^ω^ )

Mato   Kaiya

Kaiya



Somehow

どうしても

Mato            Kaiya



they don't wanna look at me at the same time.

2人一緒にこっち見てくれない。

Mato             Kaiya



But they do turn their heads to the side at the same time :p

横は向くのに。

Mato                   Kaiya

          Kaiya          Mato

   Kaiya        Mato


Mato                                 Kaiya                              

                  Kaiya                    Mato



Mato suddenly got excited.  He stimulated Kaiya into chasing.

急にMatoが誘って 追いかけっこ開始!

                   Mato           Kaiya

        Mato                  Kaiya




They ran too far away from me that I couldn't take good photos.

崖の下の方ばっかり走るから 遠くてなかなかいい写真が撮れないじゃ〜ん!!




After all the running, we went down to the lake.

よく運動した後は 水辺で穴掘り。

Kaiya



Once Kaiya starts digging here, she never stops.

ここで穴掘りを始めると止まらないKaiya。

Kaiya


Mato was busy doing different stuff, digging, chewing a stick, going into the water, etc.

Matoは穴掘りして見たり 棒をガリガリしたり 水の中にちょいと入って見たり。

 Kaiya also went into the water a little.

Kaiyaもちょっと水の中入ったよぉ〜。

Afternoon walk / 午後散歩 Apr. 21

The sun was out and it was such a nice weather.  

I took Kaiya and Mato to the park on the hill in the afternoon.

ヒャッホー!天気がいい〜!

午後の散歩はいつもの高台の公園へ!

Kaiya

Mato            Kaiya


Yep.  Kaiya started her thing right a way.

Kaiyaのいつものけっこー早くに始まりました。





Wow!  Do you know how you look like now?

すげーな。おいっ!




I got the best shot today :))))

今日は カメラ目線で舌まで出して バッチリ(^_-)




Meanwhile, this little boy was doing the usual thing as well.

Kaiyaがゴロゴロしている間 こっちの方もいつもの感じ。

Mato


ガリガリ。


ムシャムシャ。



Wait a minute.  Are you really eating it???

木 うっめぇ〜!( ̄+ー ̄)・・・って食ってるんかい!



Wrestling time.

今度はレスリングを始めたヒトタチ。

Kaiya                        Mato                   





Then a break.

そして休憩。

Mato                                                                                                 Kaiya                                   


I wasn't happy not seeing them running for very long time so I decided to run myself.

And you know what happen?  They started to run!!!  I run, they run ;p

なかなか走んなくてつまんないから 私が走ったら 2人も走った!(笑)


Mato                                 Kaiya


Mato                                                              Kaiya 


I love watching them run.  Sooo cool!  Keep going!!

やっぱ走ってる姿 いいよねぇ〜(≧∇≦) もっと走れ〜!



Hey hey hey!  Are you guys already done and taking a break?

I guess they were already out of breath since they haven't done this for a while.

It was good timing though.  The dark clouds hid the sun and it started to rain all the sudden.  We had to hurry home after this.

っておい! もう休憩かい!

最近走ってないから 運動不足で息上がったか?

まぁ ちょうどいいタイミングだったけどね。急に暗くなったと思ったら 黒い雲が太陽を隠しちゃって 雨降ってきた〜!

この後急いでお家に帰りましたぁ〜(*´Д`*)
