Pono & Mel's 15th Wedding Anniversary

Wow...15 years!!! It has gone by so quickly and at the same time it seems like a lifetime!
We had a great child-free dinner at Chai's Bistro @ Aloha Tower...thanks to friends Traci & Chris :D Looking forward to many more years together.

Two Men in a Tub

Rub-a-dub-dub, two men in a tub!

Heart-shaped pancakes

Mommy made heart-shaped chocolate macadamia nut pancakes. Iz loved them, but Eli was more interested in doing his morning pull-ups. Maybe he feels he is packing on too much blubber :)

Bye-Bye Binky!

Goodbye Binky!!! Binky's are for baby's and bears are for big boys. That's what we tried to convince Iz of, but were not sure how it would actually work out during the night. Yesterday after church, our friends Traci and Chris watched Eli and we took Iz to lunch at Chili's and then to "Hanai Bear", a local version of Build-a-Bear. He named his new bear, "Baby". And to our surprise and relief, it went off without a hitch. He slept through the night, went down without tears or screaming and is still sleeping at 7:30am!!!
