New BUMBO!

Grammie bought Sadie a purple Bumbo seat, which she seems to love already!  It gives her a new view on the world!  These two pics were taken on the same day....don't they look like 2 different babies!?

Peek a Boo

Sporting a new 'do

The wild woman haircut seemed to bother Grammie and Gramps a lot, so I finally gave in and let them trim the top.   Now, Sadie has the same 'do as Gramps!  :)

BEFORE

AFTER

Look what I found!

Sadie has officially found her thumb! :)  She now is able to somewhat pacify herself by sucking her thumb....but the funny thing is, that while she is sucking her thumb, her long fingers are poking her eyes---which causes her to cry!  She'll soon figure out that she needs to bend those long fingers to avoid those eye pokes!

Fun at the Oceanarium

Dinner at the Oceanarium Restaurant for Chase's 1 year party.  Happy birthday Cousin Chase!

Happy NEW YEAR!

We celebrated the arrival of 2011 at our house this year and had a fun-filled night, but poor daddy had was busy at work.  As of next year, fireworks will be banned by the state, so this year people in Hawaii went crazy (except our family...since no one really likes playing them)...and there were double the amount of emergency calls to the fire department as compared to last year!

The evening went by sooooo fast as we enjoyed the 2 tables full of food, the games hosted by Aunty Jenn, and of course the craps game!  We were all so engrossed in the craps game that we missed the countdown to midnight, and we didn't even want to pause to celebrate!  Sadie was sooo tired, but refused to miss any action so she fought and fought to stay awake, but ended up crashing on Aunty Sharon, Obachan, and Grammie throughout the night.  Cousin Chase, however, made good use of Sadie's bed!  :)

Me & GREAT Grandpa

Me & Grandpa

I'm 3 months old and...

- My favorite toy is my activity gym, where I like to grab the rings and hit my giraffe
- I go to bed pretty regularly at 9 pm and usually wake up hungry between 3:30 and 4:00 am, then sleep again until 7 or 8 am.
- I can sometimes sleep for 10 hours straight!  BUT.....I hate going to sleep.  I fight it as much as I can by kicking, screaming, and crying for at least 30 minutes every night!
- My favorite place to go is Kahala Mall, where I take nice, long naps in my stroller
- I know my mommy and daddy's voices well
- I recently discovered that my hands are quite useful for grabbing
- I like to smile a lot, giggle a bit, and squeal in delight occasionally
- I can change the tone of my voice to many different pitches
- My favorite books are "I Love you Through and Through" and "Little Quack's Opposites"
- I love to take a bocha, usually around 5 pm
- I sometimes go through 2 or 3 outfits a day due to spit-ups or leaky doodoos, and I go through about 10 diapers a day
- I have very clammy hands and feet  :)
- My hair seems to be falling out still
- I usually let people carry me without fussing (if I'm fed, burped, and have on a clean diaper)
- I like to use my left hand more than my right hand when playing with my toys
- I smile in anticipation of Grammie's "pretty-pretty" and "hugables-kissables" routines
- I enjoy observing my crazy cousins Paisley and Chase, especially Chase since he always gives me "love-love"
- I'm starting to DROOL!....mommy thinks it's just a phase, HA!
