First Haircut courtesy of Studio DNA

Thanks Aubrey for trimming Kalea with her crazy mop of hair! Kalea got her locks chopped by a professional while hanging out at the salon with Mommy...what a treat for the two of us!.

Happy Girl's Day!

March 3 is Girl's Day in Japan (Hina matsuri). So I don't know too much about the holiday, but I'm all for celebrating girls. Here is Kalea with some traditional Hina matsuri dolls...



And speaking of celebrating Girls, here is Kalea hanging out with her grandma and great grandma. 4 generations of girls strong!!!




Other random shots of our little 8 month old...

Here's a post-workout shot...



Being silly at work, wearing Tio Jose's cap....

Hanging out with Mommy at the Grove's Thurday afternoon kid conert...




and after the concert, dinner with Daddy at Orris. Sheesh, what a busy social calendar Kalea has.

First Xmas and New Year

Naked Shots and Big Dogs

Now that Kalea's 5 months and moving around, she is finally aware of Cookie. Not sure the dog's too interested in her so much, though he loves trying to lick her...




Nice doggie, I wanna pat your booty...

Ok, enough with touching my booty, says Cookie


Being new parents, we must embarrass Kalea with bathtime shots. At Grandma's she gets washed like dishes in the sink....aaahh, comfy.


And then at home, Daddy is taking naked pictures of himself and Kalea in the bathroom...she's gonna love these when she's a teenager.


She also is extremely helpful on laundry day...



And finally, partying with mommy!

Halloween and other fun stuff

Since Kalea's only 4 months old, she's too young to go trick-or-treating (though Daddy and I would probably have eaten all her candy). Mommy decided to dress Kalea in an outfit Daddy brought from Japan, not really a costume, but a cute little tiger jumper thingy. Anyway, here she is on her first Halloween...


She can hold her own bottle too! Here she is zoning out and getting milk-drunk.




Here's some videos of Kalea...she is now laughing and becoming stronger and stronger by the second! Both grandmas say that she looks exactly like Daddy but acts just like Mommy...hope that's a good thing!





This one's a bit grainy, but it's so funny because she is just cracking up!




She is a roll-over pro. and it only took 4 months! I've been trying to get Kookie to roll over for 4 years...all he's mastered is shake hands and take a bow and I'm sure Kalea will learn those before we know it.




'Til next post!

Friends are Golden

Lucky Kalea has so many friends already in her short 3 1/2 months here on this planet. Here she is hanging with Russell at the Treehouse on Robertson. Such happy babies! They took turns eating each other's hands...






We also helped Tyson celebrate his 2nd birthday at Travel Town. Happy Birthday Tyson! Thanks for always tickling my feet!


Getting ready for the party...


Some cuties....Katie,

Alayna,

And Kalea! Pooped from a busy couple weeks of hanging with friends. What fun!

Sunday Afternoon with Great Grandma

Great Grandma broke her hip, so she's rehabbing at Keiro. We visit her on Sundays, and here we are hanging with cousin Eiji and Nikki! Get better soon, Great Grandma!




Here are some of Kalea's funny faces. She loves sticking her tongue out! Silly...
