Gramma's girl

I couldn't help notice the resemblance between Kaley and Gramma. I think you'll agree with me that both are lovely ladies, one being much littler than the other.

Kool Kapla

Sootzee Ayi gave me a box of wooden rectangular planks a few Christmases ago. We had discovered them at LHS back when I had membership. Nowadays we love to play with them morning and night. For now, we build a lot of streets and towers.




Maybe I'll be able to build a nice mansion for my mouse friends.

Hero man

Mamma hosted an inauguration brunch. Friends came over to bask in awesomeness happening in this country, but Kaley's favorite guest was this little cute dude Mikey.

Little Hand

Kaley: Small hand, big voice


Me: Small scratch on my face

Weekend visitors

Our little cousin Kekoa and the people that bore him.




Our buddy Jerm from Singapore. He's a scientist living in New York. His wife hand-stitched mine and Kaley's bears, but this dude could probably clone one.

Bad hair day

Kaley has lovely fine hair. This morning it was ornery.

Good Night December 12th.

Tonight I only got 1 story because I was not listening. I did, however, help clean up some of the tiny papers that I cut up tonight.

Thanksgiving '08

It was a holiday festoon with bubbles.




And bubbular bread.

NTV Cribs

This used to be my crib. And before that, Ryan and Lia. Whose will it be next?

Everyday is hard work

Kainoa & Kaley love Kekoa

We're all in the sunny-side up club so we'll be good friends for life.
Can't wait to meet you during Thanksgiving buddy.

C is for Made in China

Uncle Matthew brought us some fun-looking cookies. They are made in China, imported by a company in NY. I didn't feel very good after this treat. Maybe I got tricked by the Yellow #5 and Red #40.

Kickin' in Kool Kicks

Auntie Tracy got Kaley the Chucks a while ago. Kaley's tiny feet grew a tiny-bit so they fit now. We bad.

Meanwhile, Dad's got me in this crazy Japanese contraption that catches hair so he can trim my buzz.

A very big birthday for a girl with big presence.

Happy Birthday Kaley. I love you sooooooo much.



These extra sprinkles are for wealth, health, & longevity.

Swing out sister

I can't believe that I have been a big brother for almost one year. Where does the time go? We''ll surely be tearing down the house on Monday with a birthday bomb.



With mom working, our weekdays are a crazy obstacle course, but our weekend days are idyllic. I am passing time learning to become a construction tycoon. Here, you can see I am building a tower. It will house peacocks. Peacocks have big feathers and fly slowly, in case you didn't know.

Good ole Red, White & Blue

Another interruption for a bizarre conversational interlude (again at the kitchen table).

Mom: (Picking up a small flag that Noa had left laying around) What's this for?
Noa: It's for eating watermelons.
Mom: Hm... wow. What happens if you don't have a flag with your watermelon?
Noa: Watermelon's gonna be dead.

: : : * * Funny Quote ALERT * * : : :

We interrupt this semi-regular blog to bring you this dialog:

Open on bucolic kitchen scene.

Mom: "Noa, what do you like better.... Home or Ashley's House [daycare]?"

Noa (chomping down breakfast): "Home."

Mom: "Why?"

Noa: "Food's better..."

Ready to go AWOL

If there's a draft, I'm ready to save some damsels in distress.

In the meantime, I hobnob with royalty. This is Princess Jordan.

Summer Lovin' Had Me a Blast

San Diego, Santa Barbara (Solimar Beach), Santa Monica (Playa Vista, rather). We covered a lot of tracks in a week.
