Little Buddies

Kono's cousin Nahoa, came down for the weekend and boy were they so excited to see each other again. They played and played all weekend long together which meant taking out every single toy. Boys will be boys though, they are only young once. These two are almost like brothers. They spent the summer together and became close. For the most part, they get along really well. It's so funny, Kono thinks he can make us believe that "Nahoa did it" when he has done something to make him "in trouble". It's hilarious! We are like "Sure Kono, Nahoa did it and he's over 4oo miles away!" They kept hugging each other at random times. We took these cute pictures of them after church on Sunday, aren't they so handsome and adorable in their snazzy suits? Oh yes, and Kono cried so hard when he heard that Nahoa was going home, poor thing!

Meet Kono's Cousins

Last weekend, Kono and I went to my Mom's place in Ganado for a birthday party and to spend time with family. All of Kono's cousins were there. As we were getting ready for the party, Grandma piled them in the back seat of her car, and drove them to the playgound which really is probably like an 1/8th of a mile away, but far enough for her to walk with all of them. They looked so cute and I just had to get some pictures.

L to R: Ikaika, Julianna, Alyzabeth, and Kekoa

Here's the birthday boy, Isaac who just turned one, he's such a cutie pie with a completely innocent face.
Here's the brother of the birthday boy, Isaiah.
And here are the youngest of the cousins, on top, Iosepa, and below Rian.

Bless You Mommy

Kono is so funny. Whenever he sneezes, (it's been often lately) he says "Bless you Mommy!" I feel bad that I'm not one to say "Bless you" before him so I say, "Oh, bless you Kono!" He then says "No, bless you Mommy!!!" A little confusion there, haha, but at least he uses his manners. He is always saying thank you even in the middle of the night when I get him a drink and he is dead-beat tired.

Cutie Pie

Whenever Kono is asked to smile, this is the face he makes. He doesn't know how to smile naturally when he is asked. I love the face though! :)
There's a natural handsome smile, I love to see my baby smile (well not so much a baby anymore).
He cracks me up!
Kono wore this for Halloween last year, it's just about the cutest thing. He was only in it for a few minutes, maybe he'll just be this cowboy on a horse again this year.
It looks like he is faking it, but he is actually trying to force his smile. :D
Kono laughing so hard. And it looks like he already has pecs and abs.

Kono wanted to play with stickers and I was going to put it on his shirt but he insisted on putting them on all by himself and this is where it all ended up.

More Super Hero Pictures

Kono's collection of capes. He loves to have it displayed and gets upset if I even touch them.
He adores superman
Here he is in his new Batman pj's, doesn't he look like he's getting so big?

Kono on a goat

Kono rode this little goat over the summer with the help from his uncles.

A Memorable Day

So I'm pretty much 2 months behind on a couple of posts but luckily I have my camera back now and I found my usb cord for my camcorder, so hurray! But before I move on, I could not leave this special post out. On Jul 4, 2008, we were all together as a family witnessing the baptism of my sister-in-law Dawn who is married to my brother Jared. They have 3 beautiful kids, Julianna who is almost 7, Alyzabeth 3, and Rian who's now about 6 months. It was one of the best news we were told when she decided to take this great step in her life. We didn't even know she was taking lessons (all except my mom). It was a wonderful and memorable experience and we all are so grateful that this moment has come. We truly know that their lives will be blessed as they embark on the wonderful journey of having the sweet gospel in their lives.
