Well since the state motto of WV is "Wild & Wonderful" we are easing into a more adventurous lifestyle. No, really Inoke has been asking for a couple years now to buy a tent. He has this dream fantasy that camping under the stars is "fun;" I have lots of childhood memories of mosquitoes and roughing it, not quite so "fun." I broke down and we bought a tent (mostly because Nadia kept asking me when she could go camping like Bubble Guppies). Nadia's excitement and complete enthusiasm made it all worth the effort. We set up the tent out on the back deck and Nadia and Tata enjoyed sleeping outside under the kalokalo (stars). I know sleeping in a tent on the back deck is FAR from actual camping... but we are easing into it... not diving in head first. Baby steps here. :)

A Surprise Visit...
Last week I got a phone call from my Aunt Gini. She and Uncle Harvey were cruising around on vacation and were going to pass thru WV on the way back to Michigan. The last time I saw Uncle Harvey I was nine years old. So of course I was very excited to visit and catch up on life. Nadia took a liking to "Aunty Grandma" and "Uncle Papa" pretty quickly and we all enjoyed an afternoon together before they got back on the road. 

All I have to say is Inoke is always whining that he wants a motorcycle and I am always saying NO! Well after seeing Aunt Gini & Uncle Harvey's ride and what a motorcyle could be... I am not so completely opposed to the idea.

six months
Last week Sami hit the six month mark! I can't believe he is already six months. He is a happy and healthy little chunky monkey. You find him giggling at his sister or his tata constantly and smiling; the little guy has a million dollar smile that is for sure. He is a joy and a greatly treasured blessing to our family.

He LOVES to eat. Hmm imagine that. He is working very hard on his crawling skills. He gets up on all fours and rocks back and forth then face plants. It is entertaining to watch. He is growing so fast and we adore him.
And we adore this crazy little princess too :)
