What Happens After A Dream Comes True?

on 2018-11-122018-11-12Leave a Comment on What Happens After A Dream Comes True?

Normally I don’t write (deeply) personal things here on Baby Kaiju. The theme, tone, and focus of this blog has evolved since I started it last May. I want Baby Kaiju to be a resource, and not a journal where I collect my thoughts. However…

Earlier this week, I made pancakes for Miss M’s birthday, and I took a few photos to send to her dad. When I was scrolling back to choose the best ones to send, I noticed @thebirthposter in the background. This photo is basically the perfect “how it started versus how it’s going” snap, and it’s purely unintentional! 

My baby is now 4️⃣, and it’s surreal to believe that she was once that tiny!🥰 Those sentimental moments really do sneak up on you, don’t they!

朝食の様子を撮って、ベストショットを選択して夫に送ろうと思ったら、背景に 等身大イラストポスターが壁に飾ってあるのを気づいた!@thebirthposter
その「バースポスター (The Birth Poster)」とは、娘の生まれた時の身長で描いた赤ちゃんのイラスト。こう見ると、本当に成長しただね!とついに思ってしまいます😭

ドラッグストアの福袋を買ってみました 🛍 
コスメ商品・日用品・食料品などの詰め合わせにかなり満足しています🤩

Fukubukuro (福袋) are “lucky bags” filled with discounted merchandise sold during the first days of the new year. 

Normally, you wouldn’t know what’s inside your fukubukuro until you opened it, often resulting in buyer’s remorse. 

In recent years, shops have begun to disclose the contents in order to entice customers. Another trend for highly sought fukubukuro is pre-registration in order to stop third-party resellers.

This particular drugstore listed all the contents in a newspaper advert, so I knew exactly what to expect! 

Swipe to see what I got🛍 Not pictured are the contents of the ice cream fukubukuro😋😅

2021 is the Year of the Ox (丑年) making me a “toshi onna” (年女)! It simply means I was born under this year’s sign. This year is supposed to be a critical point in my life, and 2021 is already teaching me an important life lesson:

On Sunday, I took my junior paleontologist to “Dinosaur Park” near Nishi Kasai Station on the Tozai Line🦖 It’s officially called Kodomo no Hiroba, but it’s also known as “Monster Park.” We brought bentos (and yummy fruit sandwiches), but there’s a 7/11 right across the street from the park. Once temperatures warm up again, we’ll be back!👩‍👧

西葛西駅から徒歩2〜3分にある恐竜の遊具がある公園「子供の広場」に行ってみました🦖

お弁当を持って行ったけど、近くにコンビニや飲食店があるので、手軽で気軽に家族で出かけられるのが良いと思います👩‍👧

My daughter absolutely loves to see these Tokyo Olympic themed-buses around town. Shes gets super  ecstatic when she gets to ride them, too.

ICYMI, the upcoming (?) Tokyo Olympics are in the news again for all the wrong reasons. This time, the head of the Tokyo Olympic organizing committee (and former prime minister) made incredibly sexist remarks about women🤦🏽‍♀️ 

It’s not my place to feel offended for Japanese women or speak up on their behalf or lead all of Japan to some sort of enlightenment....At the same time, “equality” isn’t a western concept, it’s a human right. 

It’s been comforting to see on the news that some Olympic volunteers are quitting in protest and the Japanese Olympic Committee has received hundreds of call demanding that Chairman Mori resign. 

Now, I fully realize that I’m coming from a place of privilege, that if I don’t like the way things work here in Japan, I can always leave. (I mean, once the vaccine/COVID situation works out.)

However, as a long term resident and mother, I have an obligation to my fellow citizens and to my daughter to improve our society. And, that’s what I intend on doing, by staying informed and making choices that inspire those around me✌🏽

This was back when gathering in groups of 5 or more people was acceptable. I guess it still is for some, but I welcome any opportunity to be anti-social😅 Now, time stock up for the New Year’s edition of Stay Home🍷 Are you ready?

✨ Ur Glam Eyebrow Powder  Natural Brown

These are primarily gifted & beauty box items that have really helped me get out of my drugstore routine and expand my makeup options. 

However, if you’re looking for (affordable) makeup in Japan, definitely check out “UR GLAM,” a makeup line produced by Daiso, Japan’s largest chain of 100 yen stores!
