Fine Dining

Well, it sure took long enough, but we finally make it to Hawaii. I like it here! Who wouldn't though? Soon after we checked into the hotel it was time to go out and grab a bite to eat. Travelings makes a little boy so hungry.
I like this restaurant! It comes with a table-side waterfall. Pretty neat!
I'm always happy to nosh on some watermelon. Cheese and crackers don't hurt much either.
The neatest thing about this place is the entertainment. Koi fish that swim right up to your table. Sorry fishy, I'm keeping the watermelon to myself.
And best of all? A big, warm brownie for dessert. Yum!! Like I said, who wouldn't love this place?

Aloha!

We're having a great time here in Kauai! There is so much to do that we'll try to post photos later.

On the Mend

I'm definitely not 100% yet, but I have way more energy than I have had the past few days.

What are you lookin' at?

Style tips

Today my outfit is saying two things. One, I'm an individual who has a sense of style all his own - this is demonstrated by my unique, handmade hat from Coochooloo. I'm an independent thinker.
However, I do not reject all that toddler pop culture has to offer...
These new Thomas sneakers are definitely going to be a new favorite.

Trains Galore

Among many other cool things, Santa brought me some more wooden train track to add to my collection. Sure I have my train table, but those pieces are glued down and that inhibits my creativity. Now I can make bigger and better tracks all over the living room!

Afternoon snack

Robby and his mom are sharing a fresh papaya for an afternoon snack.

Robby: Pa-pa-pie-ya.
Nikki: Yes, this is a PAPAYA. Say it again.
Robby: Papaya
Nikki: You know where they have lots of payapa? In Hawaii!
Robby: Ha-why?
Nikki: Yes, in Hawaii.
Robby: And ice cream?
Nikki: Well, we'll see about that.

All day sucker

I guess getting my haircut isn't so bad if I get to have a lollipop to keep me preoccupied.

(Note from Robby's parents - we tried this distraction before but he was always too hysterical to show any interest. The first lollipop got covered in hair so it was pitched. Two hours later he's still working on eating the second lollipop.)

The coolest!

ABC pancakes were pretty neat. But this is a whole different level of coolness!

A fresh start to a fresh year

On New Year's Day we took a nice little walk nearby our house. The sun and cool air were refreshing - and I liked to pretend that this long piece of wood was a railroad track.
Ah, this old tree looks interesting. Here's a big piece of wood that looks like a perfect thing to throw.
Whew, this has been a long walk. Just give me a moment to catch my breath and rest my little toddler legs.
Okay, off we go again... I need to collect some more rocks.

Christmas craziness

Yesterday was so much fun, but I admit that in the end it was a little overwhelming. Here are some photos from our day. You can see all the packages that Santa left under our little Christmas tree. I had tons of fun unwrapping gifts - I couldn't open them fast enough! I even did a little shoveling at Nana and Pop's house again. After a long day I was pretty tired, but I still held on to my new favorite helicopter toy.

I hope you all had a great Christmas too!

Helping out

I've been dying to shovel some snow and yesterday my dad gave me a little lesson at Nana and Pop's house.
I see. You scoop and then lift...
I think this snow would look really good right over here by the car. What do you think dad? I'm a pretty big help aren't I!

Go Bruins!

The Bruins lost, but my friend Paul and I sure had a lot of fun! Pizza, popcorn, fights on the ice. What a great afternoon.

Hey Cuz!

The other night I had a great visit with my cousin Jack (we'll skip the tricky genealogy terms and stick with "cousin"). He's pretty cool for a little kid his age. I was most impressed by the Lego train that ran around the base of the Christmas tree. And I was trying to show Jack the right way to play with his other toy train, but he mainly wanted to chew on it. Crazy kid!

Getting some fresh air

Well, isn't this something...

Christmas in the Park

Here are some photos from yesterday afternoon in San Jose. I was having a ton of fun and wanted another ride on the carousel but timing was running out on the parking meter. Do you think I cared about that? Of course not, but my parents wouldn't listen no matter how hard I cried. I'm so deprived.

More preschool fun

Here are more pictures taken by my fantastic teachers at preschool. Check out some of the fun that I get to have on a weekly basis.

The Humiliation Resumes

I've been sick for a couple of days, but now that I'm feeling better my mom thought it was time to resume posing me for silly photos.
She even made me say "Ho Ho Ho! Merry Christmas."
But actually, considering how much I dig Santa Claus this isn't terrible. I guess my smile kind of betrays how I really feel about being put in costume. But I only cooperated for a few minutes.

I'm having more fun

Grandma and my parents were off doing tours of some big castle, but this was way more fun. Wild animals beat fancy art and old furniture in my book any day!
