Beach Dance

Champagne Brunch at the Hale Koa

Jenna enjoys her orchid.

Adam loved the trains, trees, and the giant Santa on display in the lobby. As long as he didn't have to get too close to Santa.

Adam has fun with Grandma.

Beach Day

Adam and Jenna had a great time at the beach. Adam had a better time when he wasn't posing for pictures.
The view from the beach to our vacation rental.

Grandma and Grandpa with the cousins.



Adam enjoyed getting buried in sand, then breaking free. He also loved to smash sand castles that Daddy and Uncle Andy would make for him.

Adam & Jenna at the airport

Meeting at the airport

Daddy helped Adam pick out a lei for Jenna at the lei stand. Since it was adult-sized, the saleswoman resized the lei and made a bracelet for Adam too.

Grandma holds both Adam and Jenna with her new lei. Adam was very excited to see his cousin again.

Aoki's Shave Ice

Here we are at our favorite shave ice place.



Just like Chris, Adam also loves to pose with face cutouts. This was just outside Aoki's.


Adam gets some shave ice from Grandpa.

Jenna eats her first shave ice - coconut. Yum.



Pool time at the Hale Koa

These steps are cool!

Uh oh!

Daddy saved me!

Up Please!

Adam at his Great Grandmother's house, asking for help in pulling up his pants. Saggy pants are very irritating!

Adam at Grandma Tanaka's house


Adam had fun with his Great Grandma Tanaka when we stayed with her for a few days. Here he's trying to help weed the rosebush, although he's really more interested in shoes and flinging dirt.

Kauai

Here's Adam after our redeye flight from Japan, looking remarkably chipper. We're waiting in the Honolulu terminal for our short hop to Kauai.

The last two times Adam went to the beach, he was really scared of the water. Now, he loves the water! Finally!
Adam also loved playing in the sand with Daddy.


Adam stayed in the water until his lips turned blue.



Playing in the water with Mommy.





The view from our cabin at Barking Sands (Navy base on the west coast of Kauai). You can see Niihau (the northernmost Hawaiian island) in the distance.

Boots


The best way to wear Daddy's boots....on your hands!

JAG Holiday Party



The whole office had fun at the office holiday party. There was a white elephant gift exchange, and a door decorating contest. COL Diliberti made some homemade lasagna, and Adam made some new baby friends.

Fried Chicken Christmas


COL Sanders...Christmas joy for you and me, but a nightmare for chickens.

Cookie Time




The whole family decided to try and get some cookies baked for the holidays. Adam was helpful, and Nani did a lot of begging.

Christmas Time!!



Adam did some posing for Christmas. Good fun...as always!

Ultrasound


We had our 20 week ultrasound this past week. The baby was very active, but cooperative. It's a GIRL!

Another Concert!

Adam and Daddy relax after the Messiah concert at church. Adam could only sit still for about half, but enjoyed eating dinner and making friends afterward.

Holiday Concert

Adam enjoyed listening to the music at the Holiday Concert. He danced the entire time. By the time the jazz band started playing, all the kids were in front, dancing.

Tree Lighting

Adam checks out the tree.
Adam does not want to sit on Santa's lap!


Hey, a candy cane! Adam was all better after that.
