Where is everyone?

Mommy is having so much fun teaching me new things! I have been asking her where people are and she tells me. Now she asks me where they are and I am able to tell her!

FYI, I haven't been able to say "Nama," so I call her "Mama" (you will hear me say "Mama" in the video).

Also... if you listen closely, you will be able to hear me pass some gas! Ha ha!

Dinner guests

Auntie Betty, Uncle Glenn and Marko came over for dinner tonight. Mark just graduated from Stanford!

I had a great time hanging out with all of them!

My new keyboard

Auntie Jenn and Auntie Tiff came over for lunch today. Auntie Tiff brought me my Christmas present... a keyboard!

I always play the piano at Nama and Papa's... so this was the perfect gift!

Just had to share...

Mommy has been really bad about taking pictures this past week! So... we still don't have any new pictures to post! Hopefully she will take some pics or videos soon!

I thought I would share a little story with you (in case you haven't already heard it already from Mommy!)

Last week I decided to spice up Mommy's life. I woke up around 7:15 am and I was talking up a storm. Mommy must still have jet lag from our Maui trip, so she wasn't able to get out of bed right away. She finally came to get me around 7:30 am.

I held out my hands to her and babbled something to her. She leaned towards my hands and decided to smell them. She asked me, "What is that smell?!!!" I responded, "Poo poo!"

Yes... I had reached in my diaper and touched my poo! YUCK! She had to give me a bath, wash my sheets, and wipe down my crib with Clorox wipes.

Sorry Mommy! That will teach you to lay in bed and not come and get me! Ha ha!

Just wanted to share... we promise to post some pictures soon!

Visiting Daddy

I went to see Daddy at work today. I was in such a goofy mood and I was all smiles!

Big kisses!

Today I went to Nama and Papa's house and got to hang out with my cousins.

I missed everyone so much that I had to give them all big kisses!

Maui videos

Here are some videos from my trip to Maui...

Click HERE to see me throw sand at Daddy... and he throws it back at me!

Click HERE to see how Mommy and Daddy kiss my owies to make them better.

Click HERE to see me as the next American Idol! (I got an American Idol microphone for Christmas... I love it!)

Click HERE to see me in action singing with the American Idol microphone.

Click HERE to see me counting at the beach. I am still learning... so I tend to skip numbers. In this video, you will also hear me say my own name!

I met a celebrity!

Mommy and Daddy asked me what I wanted to do today and I said, "beach!" So... we went back to the beach! I'm so glad we did... because I got to meet a celebrity! I met Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

The funny thing is... I actually got to go to the Red Hot Chili Peppers' concert (well... kinda). One of Daddy's clients gave him free tickets to see them when Mommy was pregnant with me. It sure was loud for me in Mommy's tummy!









It sure was a beautiful day today. Hopefully I will get to go to the beach one more time!

I love the beach!

One of my favorite things to do in Maui is go to the beach! I love the beach... just like Daddy!

And for some reason, I love the sand... I keep trying to eat it! GROSS!!!

Great Grandma

Today I got to see Great Grandma Takamura! She just celebrated her 88th birthday in November. Doesn't she look great?!

More Maui fun!

The weather was nice today, so I got to hit the beach! As usual, Daddy made me hold something that Mommy thought was gross! Ha ha! Today, I got to hold a crab!















After my nap, my cousins Jay, Stacie and Sammie came over to see me.






We had some friends over for a yummy dinner. I was so excited to see my aunties and uncles... and especially my friend Naomi!

New Year's Eve

Tonight we went to a really nice New Year's Eve dinner at Maui Lani golf course. I enjoyed the beautiful view and I had a great time blowing on the horns they gave us! (Mommy and Daddy will make sure I leave the horn here... it's so loud!)

After dinner, we went back to Nana's house. I got to hang out with my friends Kacie and Jami.

I had a blast doing fireworks with everyone! Here I am doing fireworks with Daddy. The video is a little dark.

I can't believe 2008 has come to an end. What a fun and exciting year I had! Wishing everyone a wonderful 2009!

Family dinner

Tonight I got to have dinner with Grandpa Gilbert, Grandma Colleen and Auntie Ash. I have so much fun visiting all my relatives when I am here!

Lunch with Uncle Derek

We had a layover in Oahu, so Uncle Derek met us at the airport! We had a great time having lunch together and "talking story!"

Thanks for meeting up with us Uncle Derek! Can't wait to see you again!

Maui... here I come!

I'm on my way to Maui! This will be my third time going there! I'm such a lucky guy!

I was very good on the plane. I enjoyed looking out the window, watching DVDs and playing peek-a-boo with the people behind me!
