impulse buy 衝動買い

週末にTargetによったらこんな可愛いものを発見！思わず衝動買いしてしまう。…いや、自分用じゃなってば。気が早いけれど、もちろんラビット（卯年なので現在のニックネーム）用。

予定日まで８週間切った〜。やっとワシントンDCも暖かくなってきたし、胎動も頻繁になってきたので最近ルンルン気分。楽しみになってきました。チョコチョコと必要な物も揃ってきたよ〜　友達や親戚から頂いたりとすでに甘やかされているウサギさん。みんなに感謝♫感謝♪

This was our impulse buy from Target this past weekend! We had to get it since it was so cute!! ...No, it's not for me. I know it's a little early but it's for Rabbit (her nickname for now since 2011 is the year of Rabbit).

Now I have less than 8 more weeks to go!! Since finally it's getting warmer in Washington DC, and he movement has been more frequent and stronger, it's getting exciting! Also we have been getting ready for Rabbit's arrival, and our thoughtful and kind family and friends are sending us presents for Rabbit. Thank you so much everyone!! Surely she will love them. :)

可愛いイラストのCDと絵本はK＆Jから。さすがデザイナー友達。センスがいい♪
These CD and books with lovely illustrations are from K&J. Being a designer, she has good eyes for great illustration work!!

アメリカでの名字が Elefante（スペイン語で象さん）になるので、D&Jが象さんのぬいぐるみをプレゼントしてくたよ。手作りなんで世界で一個のウサちゃんの大切な物になるね〜★

Since Rabbit's last name will be Elefante (Elephant in Spanish), D&J got this elephant plush that is probably only one in this whole world since it looks like handmade! She will love it!!

ビージェイ側の叔母から。いろいろ考えて選んでくれたっぽい。象さんがビージェイでサルが私。結婚式とゾウとサルのテーマだったからしっかり覚えていてくれたみたい! しかも、ピンクが苦手な私たちの事を配慮してくれているし〜　お尻のフリフリとか女の子っぽいけど、全体的に甘すぎず気に入ってます。

Auntie Linda got these awesome outfits for Rabbit. She must put a lot of thoughts selecting them since they are not pink and overly girly, but very cute with Elephant (Beejay) and Monkey (me) on them! (We used the Elephant and Monkey theme for the wedding three years ago as well. )

義姉と甥っ子が私にくれたヨッシーのコインケース。Targetで見かけて衝動買いしたらしい（笑）アメリカではYoshiと呼ばれているヨッシーは私のこっちでのニックネームと一緒なのです〜 きっとウサちゃんに取られてしまうんだろうなぁ…

My sister-in-law and nephew got me this coin purse from Target. It was cute to learn that Brandon thought about me when he saw this at the store! ... I have feeling that Rabbit eventually will take this away from me... hehe
