Four Friends

Maddie, Katie, Miya, Kayley - what a fun day we all had together!

Swimming Time!

It was a beautiful day for swimming so we went to Grandma and Grandpa's pool with our friends - Celina and Kayley and Mari and Miya - what fun we had! Thank you Grandma and Grandpa for the new float and for letting us have a little pool party!


Family fun in the sun

Busy, Busy, Busy - and Happy Father's Day!

What a busy week! I have lots of catching up to do on the blog (thanks for the reminder Uncle Gerry!) so here goes a long one!

We celebrated Toby's first Father's Day on Sunday with lunch at Mariposa, swimming, and dinner at Aunty Cynna's house...Maddie and Katie bought Toby a brand new (and very large) grill that barely fits on our lanai.

I started my new job at Maryknoll School this week - I am in charge of the annual giving program and the events - it is great so far and I am so happy with the change.

Toby is still coaching baseball and spending a lot of time with the girls in the day - he is pooped!

Miya is home for the summer so we went shopping with her on Saturday --- can't wait for more playdates and for her first birthday next month!

Lunch at Mariposa - they both wore "I love daddy" outfits

Playdate!

Kayley and Celina are in town for the summer - YAY! We had a playdate today --- how fun! The girls tried to share toys but ended up grabbing them from each other. Katie and Kayley had a spitting contest - that was fun and Kayley got to try the jumperoo. Can't wait for more playdates!

Fun-tastic Friday

Today is Kamehameha Day so I had the day off. We went to the aquarium and swimming in Grandma's pool. Maddie and Katie LOVED the fish and they really enjoyed splashing around in the water.

June has arrived!

Happy June! It has already been a busy month - LOTS going on. We are excited for a fun summer.

Mommy with 2 sleeping babies

Maddie sitting up on her own - what a big girl! She can't stay that way too long, but she is working on it.

Our second seat FINALLY arrived for our new stroller - Katie is bundled up on the bottom sleeping away - they girls loved it, it is easy to maneuver and has great storage! We highly recommend the Baby Jogger City Select!

Katie sitting in a high chair at Zenshu - wow! What a big girl!

Toby's cousin, Brian and his girlfriend Steph are here from DC for 2 weeks - here they are with Maddie at Zenshu

Happy 7 Months! And lots of catching up to do...

I am VERY behind in posting - so sorry! It has been a bit busy for us with visitors in town (more coming tomorrow), work, play, a couple of 1st birthday parties and other birthday parties and more! Maddie and Katie turned 7 months old on Friday, May 28th - time is still flying by faster than we could have imagined. Here are some photos to enjoy...
