UNexpected

Yesterday Kekoa and I were talking and

playing with Nalu, when Koa said something

like "You know Nalu has a tooth, right?"

Um, no?!! What a lame mom am I???

So I took and peek and sure enough...

(I tried and tried to get a picture of it,

but was not very successful).

After doing some researching about the

other kids and when they got their

first tooth, I realized why I was

so shocked that Nalu already had one.

Unfortunately I never documented

when Ame got her first tooth (weird I know),

but Kaipo wasn't until 10 months

and Ash was at 7 1/2 mo.

So I was not even expecting one of those

little things to pop through already.

Now that I know it explains some

slight changes in his behavior, but for

the most Nalu he has taken this first

one like a champ!!
And here's just some other shots
just because he so darn cute!!

Extended Family

Last week Great Grandma Asplund, my Uncle Jim (my dad's brother) and my Aunt Debbie came for a quick visit. So my parents had some of us over for dinner and to provide a little entertainment, of which all the grandkids do plenty of. Grandma made a fabulous dinner (of course) and yummy ice cream dessert. Ame shared a bit of her talent, and then the boys had to try to share theirs.












We had such a pleasant time hangin' out, catching up and just chatting. I just get such a kick out of our CANADIAN relatives. They are so fun to be around. I am soo looking forward to our trip to Canada in the Fall.








Little Tay Tay was so taken by great-grandma, and I think the feeling was mutual!
