24 November 2009

Emily woke again around 2am and was inconsolable, so we brought her in to sleep on the futons with us.

It was back to normal with Nick at work and Emily in nursery. Pam and I took the boat to Odaiba. We indulged in lots of retail therapy, then walked along the bayside path before taking the Yurikamome back to Shimbashi. We took Emily for a walk through Ginza to look at the Christmas lights, though she seemed more interested in taxis and buses than the pretty lights. We had tea at Muji, but she played up a lot and barely ate a thing; Pam had to remove her from the restaurant, yelling, while I ate her meal. She calmed down as soon as she saw the Yamanote, but it seems that the 'terrible twos' have set in.

Emily brought home her first piece of nursery artwork: a Thanksgiving turkey that she had decorated with scribble, and whose wings were made of cutouts of her handprints.
