無言の競争 quiet competitions

年が明けたと思ったら、いつの間にか1月もあとわずかに。年末からずーっとドタバタしてました。先日、チビは9ヶ月(!)健診があり、身長も体重も平均値に近づいて来てしまったよ。ハイハイの距離とスピードがアップし、運動量が増えたのか、スリムダウン。これも、遊びに来ていた7ヶ月上の従兄弟くんの影響かな?

従兄弟のKくんは、15ヶ月なのに既に2−3歳児の大きさ。なのにアカリは自分より一回り以上大きい、Kくんを相手に張り合っていたし、オモチャの取り合いまで!子供の逞しさにビックリさせられたよ〜 何かにつけて、Kくんの真似をしたがり、ライバル意識全開だった… 二人ともまだ喋らないから、無言でのやり取りは見てて面白いものがあったよ。ゴジラとガメラの戦いを無声映画で見た気分… とにかくすごいかった!

Hasn't January just started not long time ago? This month is almost over?! Life hasn't slowed down since the holidays. Akari just turned 9 months old other day! Her next check up will be in three month, when she turns one yo!!! Unbelievable... Her height and weight are now in 60 percentile (used to be in 90s). It must be all those crawling she started to do, and it's probably her cousin's influence since he was 7 month older.

It was quite interesting and funny to see Akari trying to compete with her cousin who is much larger than she is. She also wanted to do whatever he was doing. Since both of them don't talk yet, they were fighting over toys without a word, but their body language explained what they might be saying... if they could have talked. It was if I was watching a silent movie of Godzilla vs. Gamera... (for some reasons, that's the movie it popped in my head when I saw them.)
