I have so much back blogging to do!! Since getting to OKC our time is going by so quickly. We have done so much and been on the go from the first day getting here. Hopefully I will be able to put some time aside everyday this week to get caught up on all the things we have done, that way when grandparents get here I will be able to post about that. I can't wait for them to get here! Hoping Rylan and I will be able to go on a real date!
So here is the randomness happening in no particular order....
Every Sunday Mr. Mike greats us at the door! Alohi always gets her hug from him and he normally has a cup of donut holes waiting for her. One Sunday Rylan and I volunteered to serve donuts, so Alohi volunteered to help great people with Mr. Mike. I love this picture!!!
Pepaw came over for dinner a couple of nights while Memaw was out of town for business. Alohi had him play dress up with her, but if you look closely at this picture... I think she took the dress Pepaw has around his neck! She loves Pepaw!!
Weekend sleepovers at B&T's (aka Pepaw & Memaw) are always so much fun!! They got bedtime stories every night!
Swinging at the park... this was Po'okela's first swing ride. He loved it! Giggled the whole time!
Zoo dates with the Davis' girls! It was a perfect weather and day at the zoo! We saw so many animals!
Yep... more time with Memaw! This is from our sleepover weekend. Alohi is helping make mac&cheese.
One great thing about being at an apartment is having a pool! Po'okela loves the water. We have to watch him carefully because he tips forward to get his hands in the water to splash!
I love quiet mornings/days at the apartment. I get to watch the kids play together. We always have a tea party!
When we stay home, I try to get back into our "school time" routine while brother sleeps. I brought a few things when I knew we needed to relax and not be on the go. Here Alohi is doing letter finds with simple magnetic letters. I have a running check list of the alphabet and mark keep checks on the ones she is able to identify without any help. So far we has 12 out of the 26 master (I only did 12 letters the first day because it can take about 5 minutes). Here she is finding the letter P for Po'okela or Papa.
Play time together... Alohi can get into the smallest of places!
And I sometimes find her in bed with her brother... I try not to let this happen because then they don't sleep so well. He thinks it is funny... but I think in this picture she had dropped a doll behind packnplay, so was trying to get it.
Then we have dates with this little man... Mason Reeves. I got to watch Mason one day while his mommy and daddy got into a jam with work. Alohi and Mason get along so well!! I am sure his mommy and I wouldn't complain if in the future they got together... but I won't marry her off yet!
Yep... another date with Mason! Here they are being supervised by Po'okela! He is making sure nothing fishy happens!
A random Sam's trip! Man I miss Sam's... In Nebraska, we drive 1 1/2 hours to get to one and here in Oklahoma I can get to 3 within 20 minutes (and that is me driving to the farthest one!!). The little old ladies love feeding these two during sample time! Free lunch anyone?!?!
And to leave the randomness is.... Po'okela who has learned to "crawl" or better described as drag your legs behind you and pull with your arms. He find himself in unusual spaces now.
Sorry... I couldn't bring myself to leave the last picture of screaming Po'okela! Here is a more peaceful picture of the two kids. Sleeping in their carseats with all the crazy running around, fun things, random things we have been blessed to do during our time here in OKC!
And I just counted... We have about 3 weeks left before we head back to our home in Nebraska... Bittersweet times again!
