悟り Enlightenment

まだ２時間毎に授乳が必要なショーン君
私が行くところは何処でも連れていかなきゃいけません
この日はお母さんに付き合わされて、
お母さんの友達とお父さんと
初カフェデビュ～
しかし・・・
寝ていた　
というか　
悟り？を開いていました

お母さんの叔母さんにもらった熊が

ぴったりきてます　笑

Sean still has to get fed every two hours.

Therefore, I have to take him wherever I go.

Today, he had to come with his dad and mom

to meet mom's friends at a nice cafe' .

So that was supposed to be his first debut in a cafe'.

But..

He slept instead.

It was more like he was.. reaching enlightenment.

祝福 Blessing

今日は教会でショーン君の命名の儀式がありました

広島からは田中家、アメリカからはパパファーギ、また倉吉支部の教会の人々に温かく見守られる中、ショーン君はずっと静かにしてくれていました

そしてパパファーギはアメリカへ帰国

ありがとう、そして暫くの間、さようなら

Sean's baby blessing was held in the church today.

The Tanaka's from Hiroshima, Papa Fergie from America, and all the members from Kurayoshi perticipated.

Sean was being a good boy during the blessing.

Papa Fergie had to leave for America.

Thank you and good bye for a while.

中国China

我が家の近くに日本最大級の中国庭園があります
とはいっても　行った事がなかったので
今回は中国に長年住んでいたというイアンのお父さんがいるし、ということで
行ってみました

ショーン君
こうすれば中国人にも見えます　
まあ何でもアリです
The largest Chinese garden in Japan is located right in our neighborhood, called "En Cho En".
Since we had never been there, and Papa (who lived in China for so many years) was visiting us, we decided to go and check it out.

Sean looks like a chinese baby:)
He is flexible! haha

夜は明日の教会での祝福のために広島から来てくれた田中家と合流

中華料理をご馳走になりました！

The Tanaka's came over here from Hiroshima for tomorrow's blessing.

So we had Chinese dinner tonight!

クリスマス Christmas

　　

アメリカのおばあちゃんのナイスな計らいで

サンタになることができました
プレゼントも何がなんだか分からないまま？開けてみたようです（おじいちゃんが）笑

Sean was able to become a Santa

becaue of his Grandma's thoughtful gift.

He opened his present by not knowing what he was doing.(Maybe his Grandpa did it. haha)

３世代 3generations

初の３世代集合写真

The 1st picture of the 3generations.

　　

この日は回転すしを食べに行きました

ショーンさん、一人前に座っていらっしゃいました

We went out to have sushi.

Mr. Sean was sitting all by himself:)

パパファーギー来日 Papa Fergie

クリスマスを初孫と！　とアメリカ、ユタ州在住のイアンの父が来日

夜中の12時近くにやっと鳥取の我が家へ到着

長旅の末の我が子と孫との対面は喜びもひとしおのようでした

Ian's dad who lives in Utah traveled all the way down to Japan to spend Christmas with his first grandson!

He finally arrived at our little apartment in Tottori around midnight.

It seemed like it was rewarding for him to be able to see his own son and the grandson after such a long trip.

二人息子Two Sons

Check out Ton's totally annoied face. haha

広島のいいところ～ A Great Place to Be:Hiroshima

広島に帰るとショーン君をみてくれる人がたくさん

とても助かります

例えばうちのお母さん

私が赤ちゃんだったときのおぶりひも（←物持ちいいです）

で孫を寝かしつけてくれます
Whenever I go back and visit Hiroshima,
there are a lot of people to take care of Sean and it is really helpful.
For example, my mom
who puts him in to sleep by carrying him on her back
with using a little bag which I was in when I was a baby. (she is really good with keeping things!)



そしてうちのお父さん

ショーン君にとっては癒し系？らしい　なぜかいい子にしています
And.. my dad
who is a "healer?" for Sean. For some reasons, Sean becomes a good boy when he gets held by him.


そして叔母さん。

叔母さんの前ではいいこちゃんになってみたり・・
And..my sister,
whom Sean always put a nice face to.





かと思えば素もだしちゃったり・・ちなみにスタイにはI love my auntieとありますが。笑

However sometimes.. the real Sean comes out..oops!
By the way, the bib says "I love my auntie". haha
