Party Days!

Adam had his promotion ceremony this weekend and we celebrated with him. Scott and I were promoted to Major as of yesterday (Sunday), but we haven't officially "pinned" on so we aren't wearing the rank yet. Our ceremony will be 19 June. Here's a picture:

Thanks to Heather, Adam's mom, Nancy, Melissa, and Malia, Jake and I were able to throw a really fancy tea for our friend, Callie's, baby shower. It was a lot of fun and I think everyone really enjoyed themselves. I am going to miss living in this house with all the entertaining amenities. Jake is a great sport and enjoyed his first taste of sherbet punch, angel food cake, and brownies (at least that I know of!) He loved all of the attention. Here a couple of pictures:

Jake is saying a new word: tiger! In honor of his lunch box, which is in the shape of a tiger. Scott is traveling to Palau and we miss being there with him. We'll get a fun trip soon! We're looking forward to seeing everyone soon in order to continue the Party Days!

Happy Mothers day

Heather, Mandy jake and I went to the botanical gardens in Kaneohe today for lunch to celebrate mommy day. I grabbed some takeout from Boots and Kimo in Kailua to bring along. Kate and James can appreciate the macadamia nut pancakes that we all are so fond of. It was a really nice day with plenty of ducks for jake to terrorize and feed as well as many other new things to get into. Jake decided to start jumpimg off of things recently as you will see with one of the videos. The other pictures are of us in the park.

The first video is Jake jumping off the park bench (no I didn't push him)

This video is of Jake feeding the duck the leftover macadamia nut pancakes he seems to love all animals especially birds, dogs and cats.



Jake also now has a favorite activity in the pool. Sometimes he leisurely steps out off the edge and sometimes he is able to actually jump. The good thing is he does it over and over until he gets worn out which is good for us.
