Rikuto Playing with his Pooh

November 9th, 2007 by Nick Ramsay

Our three and a half month-old son, Rikuto, went for his BCG jab today and cried louder than he ever has. When he got home though, he found one of his favorite toys, the Pooh Carousel, recharged with new batteries. He went crazy trying to grasp the dangling Pooh, and had more luck off-camera, but [...]

Rikuto on His Belly

November 5th, 2007 by Nick Ramsay

Maybe it’s just because I’m his dad, but Rikuto is getting more adorable each day. Take a look at these photos of him on his front. He used to cry after just a few seconds on his belly, but now he seems to enjoy it.

After looking at the last picture I posted of Rikuto, my Net [...]

Rikuto On His Front

October 27th, 2007 by Nick Ramsay

At three months old, Rikuto’s neck is getting stronger and stronger. His head still wobbles occasionally, but now I can put him on my chest while I lay back on the sofa, and watch him move his head around like a tortoise.
Since I’m just posting a photo, Rikuto would like to take this opportunity to say a big [...]

Rikuto Gets Vocal

September 30th, 2007 by Nick Ramsay

Rikuto is still a long way off speaking yet, but that doesn’t stop him trying to communicate. In this video, he gets quite vocal on a number of important issues. I don’t know what he’s trying to say, but it’s fun imagining. Maybe he’s giving his thoughts on Japan’s new prime minister, or perhaps he’s [...]

Rikuto - Is That My Hand?

September 24th, 2007 by Nick Ramsay

The other day Rikuto turned 2-months old, and I posted about some of the things we can expect from him this month. One of those things is the realization that he has his own hands. With that in mind, and considering how these videos of the baby seem to be pretty popular with my family [...]

Baby in Progress - Rikuto at 35 weeks

June 29th, 2007 by Nick Ramsay

Today was the first day I was able to join Mami at the maternity clinic. Usually when she goes, I’m at work, and it has been very difficult to find a time that suits us both. So, with just over four weeks to go until the baby is due, I was quite excited about our [...]

Baby in Progress - Rikuto at 34 weeks

June 24th, 2007 by Nick Ramsay

I’m writing this post using Windows Speech Recognition so I don’t have to touch the keyboard to write what I want to say. Isn’t that great? Anyway, today I have a great photo of Rikuto from outside his mother’s tummy.
Mami is now 34 weeks pregnant and looks it! Since she finished working at [...]
