Guess who...

PEEK A BOO,

GUESS WHO TURNED ONE??? As if this boy couldn't get any sweeter,

he got filled with much more sweetness.

*Donuts for Breakfast*

That seems to be the tradition

around out home for BIRTHDAYS!!!
Nalu Alena Hanamaikai

*IS a 1 YEAR OLD NOW*

and we have soo much to celebrate!

He has blessed our family more than

we could ever have imagined.

Each day he is soo happy, full of life

and just a joy to have around.

He had quite an eventful day.

Unfortunately he had a Dr's Appt.

and had to get 3 shots. What a way

to celebrate, huh?!
We did find out how much he has grown.

He now weighs: 23.4 lbs

and his height : 31 inches

Those are almost the exact same

stats as his brother kaipo had

at 12months. So we know Nalu

is going to be one tall boy!

Of coure he LOVES facing forward

in his carseat now.
------------
He is soo close to taking his first steps.

He pulls himself up everywhere, and

walks along the bench of the kitchen table.

I'm thinkin' give him a few weeks

and he will be walking!
LOOK OUT

It is really hard NOT to be happy

when I see this boy.

No matter how crummy of a day

I am having, all I have to do
is see my precious boy
and I can't help but smile!!

Can't have a birthday without

some of the GOOD stuff.

One of Nalu's most favorite things is to

Take a Bath
If anyone even mentions that word he is

squealing and squirming with excitment!

Now that he's all clean from

that yummy cake and ice cream,

it time for PRESENTS!
Of course there is no enjoying

opening them by himself...
gotta have those brothers

ripping into them too.

Speaking of siblings, Nalu

just LOVES his brothers and sister.

He is constantly crawling around the house

looking for them, or yelling up the

stairs when he hears them playing.

He giggles hysterically at the silly things

they do and is constantly entertained by them!

If he would only realize how much MORE

fun he could have with them if he would

JUST WALK!! Then he could follow them everywhere!

Nalu, you are the sweetest boy and we all

LOVE you to pieces!
You make our family complete.

You just EXUDE happiness and your smile is soo contagious!

You have brought nothing but Joy to our lives.

It's hard to believe it has already been one year

since you first blessed our family!

HaPy BiRtHdAy to you...

and the celebrating has just begun!!
