ONE STEP CLOSER TO THE BIG ISLAND

So we did it. We finally got the ball rolling and started the passport process. I hear they won't let us into Japan without them. Mom and Dad took me to the Post Office today and had my picture taken. There was a bit of paperwork to fill out and we were on our way. I thought it was pretty painless. I didn't want to sit in the chair the nice Mail Lady had for me, so Dad put me on his shoulders and kneeled on the ground. I guess it was a good way to keep me still without getting their hands in my picture. Smart cookies they are.

These are pictures of my Mommy. If you didn't know, she's in the Navy.

Check out some of these crazy outfits they make her wear!

This is her dress uniform. Doesn't she look like the GOOD HUMOR WOMAN?!

This is her working uniform. She wears this EVERYDAY. Can you say TIDE PEN?!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY POP POP!

Today is my Pop Pop's birthday! He turned 50 years old....I don't know how much older he is than me, but I'm willing to bet IT'S A LOT!Pop Pop likes to tickle me with his beard...it makes me laugh!
Pop Pop makes REALLY funny faces! Pop Pop smooches are the best!
Now lets talk PIZZA! We went to Roseland Pizza. It's a little hole in the wall place that you would NEVER find if you didn't know about it. The pizza is phenomenal! We ordered an
EXTRA LARGE BACON AND MEATBALL
pie. It's my Mommas favorite. Look at how big the pieces are compared to the fork!
YUMMY!

PLAYDATE WITH MY FAMILY

This week I was blessed enough to have a play date with a few of my cousins. I got together with Alex, Eric, Abby, Jackson and Miss Chloe....she is the newest addition to our growing family. I would love to be able to do this more often, I really enjoyed myself. This wasn't a very easy picture to take! Too many of us with our own agendas!
This is Alex, he's quite the ladies man!
He was passing around the kisses and well.....
I wasn't sure about them!
But that didn't stop us! We played on anyway!
Here is Mommy's cousin Amy and her brandy-new baby, Chloe Maria. Boy I hope she lets me hold her!
Here she is...isn't she a sweetie?!
Oh, please Auntie Amy....can I just hold her for sec? Just realllllly quick?!
She let me hold her! Can you believe it? I'm so lucky!
Alright, time to run! Thanks for stopping by!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHUSHA

Tonight was Shusha's birthday. She turned 39. Doesn't she look good for having a 25 year old daughter and a 1 year old grandbaby!? If you believe that, I've got a bridge to sell you. Smile Mommy! Smile Shusha!

MEXICAN PAJAMA NIGHT

Mommy went out last night and she had a girls night out. They all went to Auntie Vanessa's house and had Mexican Pajama night. The rules were 1. You HAVE to like Mexican food and 2. You weren't allowed in without PJ's on. Sounds like a perfect night, huh? Here is Mommy, Ashlee, Vanessa, Nikki and Amanda!
Here are the girls squeezed on the couch. They were all waiting SO patiently for Chocolate Lava Cake! Yummmers!

WHY CRIBS NEED BUMPERS

MY FIRST DAY AT THE POOL

Well, lets start this post by saying....I SLEPT 15 HOURS STRAIGHT! That's right, 15 hours in a row. I didn't wake up for a snack, a hug, or even a pat on the butt. Didn't see any point in getting up early, after all it was SUNDAY! Mom and Dad got up at 7 this morning waiting for me to wake up....but I didn't feel like getting up until almost 11. I let them sleep in and what do they do? Come in my room every 30 minutes to see if I was awake.

My parents are crazy. Today Mommy took me to the pool for the first time! Here I am in my suit....lets go!
Enough with the pictures already MA!
Uh. So this is a pool? What's the big deal?
OOOOOOOOO! This is WAY FUN!
I was marching in the water.
MARCH, MARCH, MARCH!

The lifeguard said we had to take a 10 minute break.

WHADDAYA kidding me?! I was really getting into this swimming thing.
Back to swimming! SPLISH, SPLASH!
OK, I've had enough. Let's get going Mom.
Thanks for stopping by!
