Iao Valley Walk

Maui Built t-shirt for a Maui Built baby...


Breakfast at Five Palms

Ready to hike the Iao Valley

After a long day playing it does a body good to have someone give you a bath and wrap you up like a sausuage.

Revisiting South Maluaka Beach. Anyone know the significance there?

Jacob's first ocean swim at Wailea beach.

At Ho'okipa watching Ted sail.

Rice cereal: Breakfast of Champions!

This is push-up #100 for those of you wondering..

Before a hard day's work...

Sitting in the shade at Maui Sunset while Ted stand-up paddles

Heading out to ride the waves (or trying!)

Play time with Dada, a favorite!

Jacob' grammies will be here in 5 hours! YEA! We can't wait. Off for a quick swim, then to buy them flower leis, and pick up the rental car.

Lesson of the day... Just because you have already been peed on does not mean you will not be immediately peed on again! LOL

New Beach Outfit

Kawaii Jacob got a new beach outfit from Yoshiko and Shigeo. Domo arigato! He wore it in the pool this morning. It fit perfectly and looked so "kawaii!"

Tubby time!

North Shore

Jacob and his dada put their toes in at Ho'okipa. Children have great fun playing in this tidal pool. I hope Jacob will enjoy it in the future!

"HARD"

Why must I learn things the "HARD" way? Last night I knew Jacob had eaten enough, was not hungry, did not need any more, but he was willing to take it, and I was hoping it would make him sleep longer... now I have to bring the comforter to the laundromat. The poor baby spit up every bit of it when I sat him up to burp. I feel so bad for doing that to him. Why when we know something, can we not act accordingly on it? If adults can't make good decisions and do what they know they should do, how can we expect children to?

And taking care of a baby is "HARD" work. I've always know that, now I really know it! I'm not complaining but it is hard to not sleep night after night for a little over 4 months. I keep thinking of my brother saying he hasn't slept in almost 7 years! When I go to bed at night I pray Jacob will sleep. Then I feel guilty, what a thing to pray! Last night wasn't too bad, after the big spit up and all. He was asleep a little after 9, got up 2:30-3:00 and then 6:00.

Toes in the pacific!

On the beach for a stroll, south shore, Kihei

Jacob's first time with his toes in the ocean! Soon we will take him for a swim in the ocean.

Now a dip in the pool...

all done. Time for a nap!

July 9, 2009
Happy Anniversary to us! We started the day with mimosas and then went to breakfast at the Seawatch... the restaurant we went to after our wedding last year. Jacob was a very good boy!


Yummy rice cereal!
