zizzle

Immi is DJ-ing sounds with zizzle (a musical toy that is so 3-years-ago! …but it’s still really fun.).

…and she is totally in to it.

Immi is wearing her dad’s beanie and wrist cuff.

And she really really wants to play my sparkly pink bass!

How can I say ‘no’ when she looks at me like that? …so I got it off the rack for her to play.

Immi is rummaging through and playing with MY box of musical noise making things. Her favorite in the box is the Chinese chiming balls (those are my favorite too!). The two balls makes slightly different sound and immi is listening in intently…

Immi and her Not-So-Big-Giraffe. I’m quite sure it was a lot bigger just yesterday…

Here is immi studying Virginia Driver’s Manual. Well, I was studying it and immi was reading her ABC book but she decided mine looked more fun.

Today is immi’s Obaachan (my mom in Japan!)’s birthday! We are wishing you happy birthday from across the ocean!!

And Todd is in Detroit again. We miss you!!

Immi Dancing to “Viva La Vida” by Coldplay Video

August 17th, 2008 | By Todd

Immi loves to dance to all kinds of different music but she really loves this Coldplay song called “Viva La Vida” in particular. Perhaps her display of rhythm is a little more on the side of performance art or slam dancing!

louder!

August 4th, 2008 | By Kyoko

Immi definitely knows how to turn on the radio. She can now reach the power button which was out of reach until now, she knows which switch make it play radio, and she figured out about the volume knob. Immi likes her music loud it seems — Immi might look more like me (we even have exactly the same bellybutton!), but she definitely got lots of her personality from her dad. I kept turning down the volume just a tad and Immi kept turning it up just a bit (I think it’s a milestone of sorts that she can do something “just a bit”!).

Immi is turning on the radio wearing my skirt (we were reorganizing my skirt drawer and immi wanted to wear it) which for her is a mermaid dress!

Immi stole my cookie and took it to her hiding place! If immi were an animal, she would be a cat. Except sometimes she reminds me of a hamster (dexterous, beady eyes, fluffy).

Immi’s daddy is in Detroit with business this week until late at night on Thursday. He will probably traveling there every other week (mon–thurs). We miss you!!
