Summer Can Start...

...now that Caleb is out of school!

We do not have a second grader anymore. I cannot believe how much Caleb has grown and learned over the past year. On his first day of summer, he has done typical Caleb things: pancakes for breakfast, played a video game, watched a movie. I asked if he wanted to go anywhere. "No, I just want to be lazy." Enjoy it while you can, Caleb! Right now, we are just waiting for Ma to get here.

"I'm a third grader now!"


Evan had his 6 month checkup yesterday. He is perfect! He weights about 17 pounds and is over 27 inches long. He is pretty much the biggest baby ever!

We are hoping to back in Virginia within the next couple of months. We are waiting on Randall's Medical Board results. After those get back, we are outta here! We are all looking forward to coming home. If only we didn't have to be on a plane for 16 hours (with a baby)!

A Fun and Sun Weekend!

What a busy weekend!

It all started on Friday at Caleb's school's Ho'ike Day. Ho'ike means "show." Each grade level did some kind of dance/performance. The 2nd graders did traditional Polynesian dances called "Utaina E" and "Toia Mai." It was very cool! Caleb's class had been practicing for several months. He was so excited for this day--he was up at 5:30 that morning!


On Saturday, we decided to go to the Hale Koa Hotel on Waikiki beach for more fun in the sun. It was Evan's first time in a pool and he loved it! He had so much fun splashing and laughing at Caleb. He even took a nap in his stroller then played some more. I was worried that he wouldn't like the water but now I know this summer is going to be fun after all!On Sunday, Caleb had a Semper Fi Wrestling Club pool party. He received another trophy, and two awards (most wins and fastest pin) for such an outstanding season!
