Pineapple sorbet at farmers’ market

We visited the farmers’ market today! It was a lot of fun! There were a lot of stands selling a lot of produce that all looked really good! Mommy and Grandma bought some groceries and Daddy bought some salts and spices, but I was more interested in the Sugarloaf pineapple sorbet that Mommy wanted. She […]

Exploring the kitchen

I started exploring the kitchen today. Mommy was cooking there so I thought it must be safe. So first I just tried to get the lay of the land. Next, who knows what I’ll do.

Cabinets

I started exploring the cabinets! Grandma and Grandpa had heard about how I open cabinet doors and drawers at home and decided that they should baby proof their house. But surprisingly, I hadn’t opened any cabinets yet until today. I’ve been slowly expanding my range of exploration and today opened the cabinets closest to me.

First Hawaii beach

As you can see from the pictures and videos, my first Hawaii beach was awesome! I had a slow hesitant start, but I warmed up to the water quite quickly and ended up loving it! I think I’m surprising everyone with how quickly I get used to things and end up liking things.

Brief showers

Just as we were getting ready to head down to the beach after our picnic, Grandma spotted some rain clouds coming in. We took shelter under a pavilion for a while and Grandpa went to get the car so that I could get complete coverage. I was surprised by all the rain and how quickly

Picnic at the beach

We headed to the beach today! But first things first: food! The grownups picked up some food and I brought my own from home and we had a nice picnic at the beach! Is it just me, or does food taste better when outdoors and with good company?

New car seat

I’m loving my new car seat! It is very comfortable and it even comes with handy cupholders for my drink. Neat!

Cars and trucks

Every day at home I play with my cars and trucks. Not much has changed here except of the cars and trucks that I play with.

Passing balls

Grandma and Grandpa have a lot of balls in the house. They gave me a bunch to play with, but I did not play with it the way everyone expected. I’m pretty good at throwing balls, but for some reason I didn’t feel like throwing today. I decided to pass them instead.

Waking up from my nap

I guess being here in Hawaii is more tiring than I thought because I took my nap in the morning again today. I can’t seem to make it to lunch without a nap. I’ll take it as a sign of all the fun I’m having. I woke up a bit groggy but soon had smiles

Grandma reading books

Grandma has been reading me books since I got here. She and Grandpa got a bunch of books for me, and I already have some favorites. I especially like this lift the flap book with a bunch of animals. It is so cool! Especially when Grandma reads it to me!

Grandma carrying me

Grandma carried me today! She actually carried me a bit yesterday too, but now we have photographic proof! I’m a big boy, but she carried me without problem. It just shows the strength of a grandmother’s love!

Grandma and Grandpa morning

Grandma and Grandpa took care of me this morning. They heard me crying and came in to check on me. I was happy to see them and let them take me out, feed me, and get me ready for the morning. They came in to check on me in the morning yesterday as well, and

Turkey

I also tried turkey for the first time today. It was in a baby food meal. It was my first American made baby food as well. It was pretty tasty! The turkey was not too different from chicken. Yum!

Poi

I had poi for the first time today! (Poi is a traditional Hawaiian staple made from mashing up taro and mixing it with some water). I was a bit suspicious at first because the color is not very appetizing and I heard that Mommy was not a big fan of it. But after trying it,

Laughing at Mommy in the pool

Mommy and Daddy are so silly! Mommy was in the pool dancing around and making me laugh, so Daddy decided to make up a song about it, which made me laugh even more. They are so silly!

Hammock

There is nothing like drying off and relaxing in the hammock after playing in the pool!
