Aloha!

We are back from our trip to the North Shore of Oahu (the historic town Haleiwa more specifically) , we had a fantastic time and could not have chosen a better location and company to say the least! The weather was almost perfect, the beach was beautiful, the wild life amazing, little Robbie had plenty of "firsts", and there was plenty of beer to go around, so there you have it in a nut shell.

Our beach camp in front of the house we stayed and the view from camp



family photo on the beach overlookig the beautiful Waimea Bay

Since our cottage was only a short work down the beach from where they filmed "LOST" we decided to take a hike to the "oceanic crash camp" up the beach and found Mr. Echo's church!

on our way back we saw this huge turtle on the beach

We started our days with pretty much pineapples, in the backyard where kev also gets to check out the waves first thing, and got to paddle out and catch a few a couple times...

We decided to give little robbie a chance at the sand and wave


and also lots of hikes/nap time



and usually we get to see turtles on our journey, sunning at the tide pools, or camouflaged amongst the rocks


and were even lucky enough to catch this shot of a whale breachig out of the ocean!!

and of course, playtime with mom!



and I am saving the best for last...

Robert's, I mean Kevin's New Toy

Watch Out, We have a Jumpster

and of course its not a real performance til you dance your shoe off

This is What Robert Would Look Like if He Were a Girl

I don't think he likes it... but then maybe if aunt Lisa had made the hat bigger he would have a better attitude.

When your eyes found your hands

you put them to work!





or, simply contemplate

Robbie digs the Bumbo!

And this one is being posted because it reminds me of kev's baby photos!!

Creative Tummy Time

Robbie, until you learn how to crawl, mom's not going to post anything other than Tummy Time...


Wake up ruby! Play with me! - your tiny tyrannic master

Naked Tummy Time

I think granma's quilt has the magic power to help with tummy time:



oh... and did my mom tell you I'm getting fat??


ok, have to show off more details of my beautiful quilt from grandma

We Made it to the Snow

And had a blast!

Robbie and Skye chilling out while the moms are getting ready to hit the slope, and the dads are heading back from the slopes...
According to the dads, people somehow think they are twins?? Robert's half Asian for heaven's sake!


Snow shoe advanture the next day



Apparently the boys are exhausted by the end of the hike...

4 Month Big Baby

Tummy Time is Not So Bad After All

Riding on dad's back however is a different story sometimes...

Kung Fu Lessons from Dad

p.s. Robbie weighed in at 15 lb day before valentines's day, so mom is back to being a happy camper!

He's a Champ after getting shots!

Today Robbie got two shots from the doc's, he literally cried for 2 seconds, and than back to his smiling pleasant guy to the nurse.
and at home it's play time like normal




ok... he still gets cranky... I have to admit it's not always peaches and cream.

Robbie LOVES Bath Time! And Dad

Loves to Groom!!



Monkey anyone??


ok... master of the burp
