Grandma!

Rock meets Grandma Wells!

And tells her all about his journey to Pittsburgh.

Mahalo

Thanks Granny and Grandad for a great first Hawaiian vacation!  On my next visit I hope to stay awake when we go to the beach, actually enjoy dipping my toes into Aunt Jane's pool, eat lots of the fresh tropical fruit everyone keeps raving about, sleep through the night, and not fear the sun.  Thanks for bouncing me when I was crying, letting my mom go on runs and swims,  and feeding her delicious kona coffee, smoothies, fish and fruit from Endeavour Orchard.  Now I'm off to meet all those crazy Wells people keep telling me about. 

I love you!!!

Xoxo (and a little bit of baby vomit),

Grandad got his fruit scale out yesterday.  My baby Rock is now 11.5 lbs - or approx the weight of 150 rambutans.

Beach time!  Rock was so busy sleeping and eating that he forgot to go swimming.  

Lots of rambutans on the trees 

Rock is getting good at relaxing 

Watching a rescue of a hiker off the captain cook monument trail.  It appeared to be a sprained ankle.

Aloooooooha!

Rock and I arrived in Hawaii 2 days ago and have been enjoying lots of time with Granny and Grandad!  Rock also got to meet some Greats: Aunt Beth, Aunt Jane and Uncle Nick- unfortunately we didn't get any photos with them.....

Short sleeves!

Board shorts and homemade baby gym.


Wide eyed after his bath.


Slowly adjusting to the time change- this photo was taken at approx 3 am....


DELICIOUS fresh fruit, smoothies and kona coffee for breakfast.  I'm in heaven!


Lots of quality time with Granny.  Relaxing on the lanai.

Tomorrow we introduce Rock to the beach!

2 month stats

Rock is now 10 lbs 5 oz and 22.5 inches (7%ile for weight 20%ile for height)!!  Up from 0%ile for both at his 2 week appointment.   We are very proud parents. 

Photo update

It has been a while since our last post so I thought I'd share a few photos from the past weeks.  Rock has become much more interactive.  He loves spending time with his "friends" (aka stuffed animals) in his gym, smiling, and going on daily walks to the coffee shop with his mom.

First bottle with dad.  

AM FaceTime.  Rock got up early last Saturday so dad got some quality time while mom slept.  FaceTime allowed us to chat when I woke up. :)

AM photo shoot with dad.
