BABY NAMES

Aaron and I have chosen three names that we agree on for a boy! I am only like 10 weeks along I don't really know what the gender is, however, Aaron is set on having a boy. So here are the names we have chosen: (drum roll please)

Kale
Krew
Kaden

We are kind of partial to Kale since it is a Hawaiian name and then Kali and Kale would be our Hawaiian babies, but we really have not decided yet. So go ahead and let me know which name you like the best.

Discovery Center

We took Kali and Drew to the discovery center and they had so much fun. They could of been in their all day. They got to go shopping and be cashiers, news reporters, doctors, bus drivers, play in a mouth, play as pro basketball players and much, much more.

Spleeps!

Kali loves doing the spleeps (splits) right now. Everyone gives her a big reaction so she thinks it is so entertaining. She loves to be the center of attention and have everyone tell how funny she is and how good she can do things. Even when we are home alone she will say over and over moma moma spleeps, moma moma spleeps as she performs her splits.

Moks Island

We took Kali on her first Kayaking adventure to the Mokulua Island (the locals call it the Moks). She did really well, we saw a turtle on the way over and she was all excited. Aaron and the boys went spear fishing. Aaron caught an octopus and a trumpet fish. Kali and Bella played hard and then eventually crashed. Kali enjoyed Uncles James burying her in the sand over and over again.

IPU making

For Kali's school we made IPU's. They are Hawaiian instruments, usually used for rhythm during Hula dances both modern hula (Auana) and ancient hula (Kahiko). Kali picked our her own gourd and took it to the ocean to clean it, after a little scrubbing she decided it was more fun to play in the sand then sit and scrub the gourd, so the moms was left to finish the job, and it was hard work! After it is all polished looking then up cut off the top and scrape out the seeds from the inside, Kali loved that part. Then you sand the inside and polish the outside and WAH LAH you have an Ipu!

Hawaiian Waters adventure park




For Drew's 2nd birthday we went to a water park. This was Kali's first water park experience and she was so brave. She loved going down the slides and running around in the water. It was an awesome day!

Taro Planting

Kali is in a Parent Child Interaction School right now. It is like pre-pre school, it is for ages 18 months to 3 years old. She goes every Monday and Wednesday for two hours. Today we went to the Discovery Gardens and planted Taro. Taro is similar to potatoes. It is the staple food in Hawaii. They mash is and make Poi out of it. I thought Kali would love getting dirty, but oh contrer, she hated it. I kept trying to put her feet in and she would lift them up as high as she could. She was getting an ab work out. I finally got her a little muddy and as you can see she was real happy about that. I think I have kind of a prissy girl on my hands. She doesn't like to get dirty. She loves to get wet, but NOT DIRTY! I had fun!
