Nummy Yummy


I just had my first experience with corn on the cob. I must say, that is really really good! Makes me wish I lived somewhere you can buy it. Mommy and Daddy just found out that they sell it up on North Shore, but that is so far away. You can't just buy it in the store like you can with nannas and juice. Lucky for us, Dezzy brought some over last night.

Bouncing and Bugs


This is the slide that you have seen me ride before. It is the best part of the bounce house place. Hayley really loves to jump too, so we had a lot of fun together. There would be pictures of her, but she is a little camera shy.

I believe, my dear readers, that that is a giant rhinoceros beetle. Lucky for me, it is friendly.

YEEAW!

Sitting Tall in the Saddle
Daddy and Hayley finally finished their two hour yeeaw ride and we went to pick them up. It turns out I was the one who got picked up! I got to ride a yeeaw too! I had no idea that they were so tall. They are taller than Mommy! It is a little scary up there in the yeeaw seat, but I like it anyways.


The Temple of Fish

Riding on Hayley's Shoulders
I love to ride on shoulders. It is the best way to get around due to the view and the ergonomic seating position. Hayley's shoulders were a bit smaller than the ones that I'm used to riding on, but they were just as nice.


Mommy told me to ring the bell, I was a little nervous because this bell was 20 times bigger than she is. It sure does sound cool when you ring it though.

Hula Grill


I love breakfast. I love being outside. Imagine how happy I am doing both at the same time. You might also notice that small white pitcher in the front of the picture. That contained creamer for the coffee no one ordered. Since no one was using it... I drank it. Ok, so that was a really bad idea. One that made me embarrass myself that night with explosive results. This just served to remind everyone why I drink soy milk.

A Broken Fire Truck


I got into the fire truck, Daddy put in the quarters and I sat... and sat... Well, I guess it doesn't work. Too bad we can't get the quarters back for another one. The jet was broken too. I was really good in the store just so I could ride and they let me down.

Lap Sharing

Back in the day, when there was a lap, it was mine. These days I have to share with Bubby. That's ok most of the time, but when the lap is as small as Brandon's I end up on the couch and it's not called sharing. It's a good thing she's so cute.


Once again, pushed off on to the couch. I'm trying to be strong and smile, but I miss having laps to myself.

Shutter Shades in a Dark Room


I snagged these sunglasses from Brandon. I wanted to show him how goofy they look but ended up looking cute so of course out came the camera. Oh yeah, and in case you missed it, that's Nemo, my favourite and best friend.

Green Monsters!


I'm not sure what the significance of this is, but Daddy asked me to hold it to my head for "scale". He also asked me to tell you that this is an avocado.

Mud Running

To the trail!

We had just arrived at the trail in this picture. I was very excited to get hiking as soon as possible, but the big people were dragging their feet!

(Rain + Trail) + Aleric = Muddy Boy
We had barely begun the hike when I discovered large puddles of water... with mud at the bottom. At first Mommy fought my urges to run through them and tried to get me to around them. As the above image clearly shows... I won.

I'm Ready for my Closeup

I Have Poo!!
Lucky for me, there is a handy potty at the base of the trail!

Wait, You Want Me To Go In There?
So I noticed soon after walking up to the door, that it didn't smell very friendly. I wasn't so sure that I should go potty in there.


Here I am at the end of the hike. My legs are muddy and my eyes are gleaming from all of the fun I had running up and down the trail for an hour. Round trip is about 2 miles and I ran through each and every one of the 354 puddles on the way... twice.

Me and My Mommy!

Mommy and I are pineapples!


We had visitors last week and did a lot while they were here. My favorite thing we did was when we went to the Dole Pineapple factory. I liked it so much because I got to ride a train for 20 minutes and eat pineapple. I bet you can guess which part was my favorite. The picture with me smiling really big is when I'm on the train. I really love trains, or as they should be known "Woo Woos"
