Here comes Santa Claus!

We went to see Santa Claus today at the Camp Butler Officer's Club! Isabella and I went just by our selves and had a great brunch then saw Santa Claus. She asked Santa for a baby in a car seat.

Half Time

Both of the kids are at the 1/2 mark, Izzy is 3 1/2 and Max is 1 1/2. It's amazing the growth in both of them in the last 6 months! Izzy is arguing her points and I am hunting for new "Big Girl" school for her, at her request and will be starting gymnastics in Jan. Max has numerous words like shoe, moon, poo poo (only said when he goes!), pee pee, kitty, ball (obsessed), doggy, daddy, gaacky, thank you (in japanese too!), GO, kinky, baba, book and my personal favorite, "yo ho yo ho" from his pirate book.

Dancing Princess

Isabella had her first dance recital on Dec 12, 2010. She did ballet to the song "So this is love..." from Cinderella. She did a great job and we were so proud. We took her to Coco's afterward for curry.

Typhoon Kompasu

We are sitting in our house (on the 7th floor) weathering the first Typhoon here. Supposed to be a biggie, category 3 when it hits. We are in TCOR1 right now. No wind but raining.

Number 3!

Max got another tooth on the bottom today. It finally cut through. Now there is 4 on top and 3 on the bottom.

Uh-Oh

Max has a new word! He says Uh-oh all the time. Drop your binky? Uh-oh. It's super cute. I've been trying to catch it on video but no luck yet. Max also has been in his swim lessons, which he HATES. Izzy has another round without mom in a few weeks. I'm nervous but she is so excited!

Little Fish

Isabella wrapped up her 2 weeks of swimming lessons!

First Birthday Party, she's 3!

We finally had a birthday party for Isabella. After 3 years of floods, hospitals and trauma, we got it done! We had a wonderful time with our Okinawan family. We had it at the Chapel annex at Camp Foster. There was a TON of food, drinks, cake, ice cream. There were surfboards for the kids to color and foot stamping paints. We did an aloha theme and had a luau cake and hula girls on the table. Max practiced walking, sneaking random food and flirting. The kids all had a great time.

Sunday Sunday

We hit Sunset beach on Sunday, well the kiddos and I did. We had a great time playing in the sand and swimming in the water. Our swimming lessons are coming in very handy for managing 2 kiddos in the water. We sang "Tiny Tim the Turtle" and "Wheels on the Bus" as we played in the water. My dog crazy kids ran after 2 beautiful Golden Retrievers and the kind owners let them pet (Max pull out chunks of fur) as they took pictures of the kids and dogs. This is our last week of swim lessons for Izzy then it's Max's turn. Our weather here has been gorgeous!

Father's Day

This weekend we celebrated Father's Day with a trip to the aquarium in Okinawa. We had a great time. Isabella started swimming lessons this week and loves it.
