Oscar & Me

I love Oscar and as you can see by these photos Oscar can barely contain his enthusiasm around me. It is hard to climb all over him when he gets so animated like this.


Teeth!

I have four of them now. Here is a good shot of the two on bottom.

Happy Father's Day!

Thanks, Dad, for all of your silly songs, smiles and reasons to giggle.

Here's one from the archives. Daddy sang this song to me everyday for the last few months before I was born. I still love this song, especially when Daddy sings it.

Here's another great example of Dad's silly songs, again from the archive. Somewhere around my third month, Mommy learned that she shouldn't hold the camera this direction.

Aloha - First out of State Trip - the Big Island of Hawai'i

I've been warned that mom and dad love to travel. For my first adventure we went to the Big Island of Hawai'i. Dad found a secluded cottage on a 20 acre Kona coffee plantation. There was no one around but birds, lizards, and bugs. We weren't at the plantation too much, we had to see all the sites. We were so happy that Grama could join us too! Good times were had by all, though I got a little tired of my car seat at times.Asaka Falls

I love bath time in any state.

Mom and dad went snorkeling with the Turtles, but at least they took me wading to see one.
I got wet up to my waist.

Travel is exhausting!

Did I mention that hiking is exhausting too?

Can you guess who the feet belong to?

Aloha for now Hawai'i, and just so you know, I was an absolutely perfect baby on the plane both ways, 5 1/2 hours each way!
