Daddy's home / ダディ帰ってきた Jul. 26

Last night, daddy came home finally from his 10-day trip!

Kids got so excited!

昨日ダディが１０日ぶりに旅行から帰ってきたよぉ〜！

キッズ大興奮。

Today in the afternoon we all went to the beach together!

Mato was again forced to swim.  He didn't wanna go even neat the water.

今日はみーんなでビーチ行ってきた〜！

またも泳がされて　断固として水に近づかないMatoくん。

But no one can resist the temptation of treats. lol

食べ物には負けるけどね（笑）

Mato (left)                   Kaiya (right)

Kaiya acted better.  Even though she was forced to swim, she was still by the water playing digging the sand and so on.

Kaiyaの方が泳がされても　水から離れなくて 砂掘ったりして遊んでた。だんだん水が大丈夫になったかもな。

This is the "thanks-mommy-for-making-me-swim-it-was-real-fun" face.  lol

チーーーン。　また泳がされた〜の顔ww

Kaiya

Mato

We had so much fun! ...well, I don't know about Kaiya and Mato but mommy had a real good time!

楽しかった〜！KaiyaとMatoはどうか分からないけど　マミーは大満足〜。

Kaiya

Big brother? / 兄貴？ Jul. 22

We met Taro in the morning!!!

朝から　タロ〜〜〜〜〜〜！！！

He played with Kaiya a bit.

Kaiyaとちょっと遊んだタロ。

Then he was curious about what Mato was doing and started to follow and do the same as Mato. lol

そのあとは　どうやらMatoがすることが気になるらしくMatoの真似っこw

I wonder if Taro thinks Mato as his big brother of some sort.

But the truth is...this guy takes a nap beside mommy like this letting all his guard down. lol

なんだかタロに兄貴的存在に思われてるのかなぁ？

だけど昼間はマミーの横で隙ありありで寝てますw

Mato

We made a new friend at night, a castrated 4 year old boy named Nalson.

夜は新しい友達ができたよ。

４歳の男の子ナルソン君 (去勢済み)。

Kaiya

It seems like Mato has no problem with castrated boys :)

やっぱMatoは去勢されてる男の子とは平気だな。

Mato

Thank you rain / ありがとう雨 Jul. 21

Early in the morning, I realized the sound.  It was raining!  It didn't seem that it lasted long but we'd waited for this.

It didn't get hot as much as usual during the day, and also at night it gotten much cooler.  I can probably just go to sleep without using the fan.  It's enough with the cool breeze coming from the window!

明け方なんか音がすると思ったら　雨降った〜！恵みの雨。そう長くは続かなかったみたいだけど。

日中いつもより暑くならなくて　夜も窓を開けると涼しい風が入って来るから　扇風機もかけないですぐに寝れそうな予感！！

These two somehow getting along very much lately.  Someone is in love. lol

この２人は毎日ラブラブ。最近どうしちゃったんだろw

Walking one by one / １人ずつ散歩 Jul. 20

We simply took many walks today.

今日は散歩ばっかりして終わった〜。

After the morning walk, it's time for a nap.

My arm was hanging from the sofa and this boy used my arm as a pillow. lol

あさんぽ 終わって　お昼寝タイム。

ソファの上から手を垂らしたら　勝手に枕にされてしまった（笑）

Mato

Today we took a walk one by one for a change.

Each got a short walk in the afternoon since it was really hot.

About 40 minutes walk each in the evening.

I noticed both of them focused on me better and were able to walk by me most of the time.

It'd be nice if they could do it when they both walked together.

Well, I'll work more on my leadership💪

By the way, I actually walked double than they did...I was thinking to chill out today but I guess nice to do some extra exercise.

今日は趣向を変えて　１人づつお散歩。

暑いから午後は短い散歩。

夜は４０分くらいずつ。

１人ずつの方が私に集中できてしっかり横に付いて歩けるのぉ。

２人一緒に歩くときもできるようになればいいなぁ。

マミーもっとリーダーシップ頑張る💪

ってかマミーにとっては２人より２倍歩いて　ゆったりしようと思ってたけどよく歩いた日になったぞ。

Kaiya

Mato

Anyways, I want to sleep in tomorrow so we gonna take a midnight walk now!

ってことで　明日お寝坊したいから　夜中だけどもう一回散歩行ってきまぁ〜す！

The usual pack +1 / いつものメンバーとプラス１ Jul. 19

Morning walk with Chili again😆

今朝もシリィとお散歩！！😆

We bumped into little Raiya, a miniature schnauzer girl.

途中でミニチュアシュナウザーのライアに会ったよ〜。

Kaiya

Raiya joined and we all walked together.  It was a fun morning walk!

途中までライアも一緒にお散歩〜。楽しい朝の散歩だった！

During the day... found two dogs on the floor...

日中。犬が落ちてた・・・。

I was about to sunbathe on the balcony while reading a book...someone took my place😕

バルコニーに寝転がって本読みながら日焼けでもしようと思ったら　陣取られたぞ😕

Mato

He gave me the spot on the balcony eventually and moved inside but decided to take a nap by the door to the balcony.  This boy always wants to be close to mommy💙

バルコニーは最終的に譲ってくれて　バルコニーへの入り口のところで昼寝することにしたらしい。 いつでもマミーの近くにいたい甘えん坊男子💙

Mato

In the evening, something triggered Kaiya....poking Mato again. lol

夕方　またKaiyaがちょっかい出し始めたwww

Hot day again.

This country needs no air conditioners usually... the life is so hard without an air conditioner when it's this hot everyday....

All the windows are open 24hr and using all the fans to circulate the air 24hr now👍

いや〜　今日も暑かった〜。

ってかエアコンが必要ない国で毎日こんなに暑いと家の中が大分暑いぞ〜。

窓全開＆ありったけの扇風機をずーっと回して　空気の循環してま〜す👍

The early bird... / 早起きは... Jul. 18

You get lucky when you take a walk early in the morning.

Guess who we bumped into.  Chilli!!!!

早起きは三文の徳〜。

今朝はシリィに偶然会って。

Chilli and Kaiya

Then Simba, too😆

シンバにも会った〜😆

Kaiya (left)                             Mato (middle)                    Simba (right)

Since we took early morning walk, it'll be too long to wait until evening when it's not too hot for the next walk.  Although it's really hot, we decided to go out around 3 pm just for a quick walk...at least I was thinking that...

Here we are...walked this far to the woods.

朝の散歩が早かったから　次の散歩を涼しくなる夕方まで待つと長いから　暑くても１５時くらいにちょこっと回ってくるはずが・・・

森まで来さされた。

Kaiya (left)                             Mato (right)

Then farther to the cliff.

森通り越して　崖のとこまで来ちゃった〜。

Kaiya

So many people!

でも　人がいっぱい。

Mato

Our spot is taken anyways...we're not going down today, guys.

いつもの私たちのスポットは取られちゃってるし　今日は下まで降りないで行こう〜。

Kaiya

"NO!!"  This girl sat tight and didn't seem like moving at all unless we went down..stubborn kid...

ヤダ！！　で〜んと座り込むヒト・・・Kaiyaのわがまま始まった〜。

Kaiya

"I know you want to go down but there are too many people around and I can't let you off the leash and you can't run around.  It's no fun, Kaiya."

どうしても降りたいようですが　あんなに人がいっぱいいたら　君たちリード取ってあげられないし　走り回れないし　無理ですよぉ〜。

Kaiya (left)                             Mato (right)

Finally, we could get out there and walked a little further ahead.

Found a spot where we can get in the water...of course, they didn't want to.

I carried them in anyways and wet their tummies so they were able to cool down.

やっとこさ　先に進んでちょっと水に入れるスポット発見。

だけど　２人とも入りたがらないから　抱えて入れてお腹を少し冷やしてクールダウン。

Mato (left)                             Kaiya (right)

Over 30°C again but they were energetic.  When we got home, it was already 6 pm.

こんなに暑いのに元気な２人だ。うち帰って来たら１８時になってた。

Kaiya (left)                             Mato (right)

Somehow Kaiya was still energetic or excited after the walk.

なんか帰って来ても　元気なKaiya。

Kaiya (left)                             Mato (right)

Poking Mato a lot.

Matoにちょっかいを出しまくり。

Mato just let Kaiya do whatever. lol

Matoもケッコーされるがままw

Kaiya (left)                             Mato (right)

It's about time!

反撃するのかと思えば

Kaiya (left)                             Mato (right)

Nope.  He doesn't even get up. 😂

やっぱり寝転がったまんまかい！

Kaiya (left)                             Mato (right)

Taking it easy / ゆったりな日 Jul. 17

Yep, of course. it's gotten over 30°C again. What in the hell is going on??

今日ももちろん気温は３０度越え。本当どうしちゃったんだろ😑

Mato

Mato's shedding a lot lately.

Matoくん　最近めっちゃ毛が抜けてます。

Mato

Kaiya's not shedding but she likes to get a lot of grass on her.

Kaiyaは毛は抜けてないけど　芝をつけるのが趣味。

We went out yesterday little farther than usual and spent a lot of time outside.  Today we took it easy.  Sat by the water in our neighborhood in the morning.  It felt good feeling the breeze.

昨日は朝から頑張ってちょっとした遠出を下から　今朝はゆったり近所の水辺で涼んできたよぉ〜。

Kaiya

Mato

It gets super hot in the afternoon.  We waited to take a walk until six in the evening.  The temperature dropped and it wasn't bad ;)

午後はマジ暑いから　お散歩は夕方６時くらいにしたら　大分暑さが引いて散歩しやすかった〜。

I guess everyone is taking his/her vacation right now.  Almost no one's around.  Kaiya got to walk by herself.

今みんな夏休みなんだろうね　誰も歩いてないから　Kaiyaさんには１人で散歩してもらったよ。

Kaiya

Kaiya

Kaiya really knows where she wants to go every walk.

This time she wanted to come to the woods so here it is😂

Kaiyaさんいつも行きたいとこがはっきりしてる子。

今日は森まで来たかったらしいので　はい　来ました😂
