☆祝!!①歳半☆ / ☆Let's Celebrate!! A Year and a Half☆

Theme：blog

Everyone,





Good morning!













After I got home from work yesterday,





we had a little party to celebrate Noa-tan turning one-and-a-half!!







[note: it reads, "Noa -- congratulations on turning one-and-a-half years old"]





Her daddy bought this cheesecake





and we stuck in some candles, lit them,












and had our little celebration!!





Because I had to work yesterday, I wasn't able to really make a proper meal, but...





before going to work I did make a couple of really simple dishes:





gyuusuji nikomi (stewed beef tendon) and













chicken karaage (deep-fried chicken bits)!!












And Noa's daddy made mentaiko itame (spicy pollock roe stirfry) with carrot and shirataki (thin, translucent konjac noodles)













And we also had...





TA-DA!












Sushi!!





Oh, sushi is so tasty!
[note: the line is 'o-sushi wa umashi,' which has a fun sort of flow and almost rhyming feel to it; it also uses an antiquated adjective inflection ('umashi' instead of 'umai' -- "tasty"), which is why I put in "Oh" there at the beginning (and it doesn't hurt that this mirrors the sound of the original)]





And it'd been ages since I'd last had any~





And when we put everything all together,





our dinner looked like this~~












The three of us raised our glasses in a toast...





and enjoyed a delicious meal together as a family













Once again...Noa-tan,



you're now one and a half years old!




Congratulations!!





And I'm so grateful that you were born nice and healthy





And, and...





I want you to keep growing up really big and strong, okay~!





And I truly...




I truly thank you...for bringing me such happiness, always





I love you!!











............





Well then,





let's go out there and give it our bestest again today~!
