Mount Tantalus

Josh helping Kylee with her sippy cup tonight.
Look at my baby girl sitting up! with the help of the boppy...

So today I suprised Josh with a Father's Day picnic. Since we have plans tomorrow, I wanted to do something for him today.

We went to Mount Tantalus, probably the most amazing place I have seen yet on Oahu. It takes about twenty minutes to get up the mountain, through VERY curvy roads, but as you can see, the view is worth it. You can see half the island from up here. Plus they have an area to picnic in and enjoy the view at the same time.

This is what the scenery looks like on the drive up.

Diamond Head is on the left, and the city you see is part of Honolulu

Josh took a panaramic

We thought the scenery is so gorgeous, it looks fake.

It really takes your breath away...I hope all of you who come out here come to this place, if nowhere else

Look at Kylee's crazy hair. Because its so high up, it does get pretty windy. Kylee loved it

Happy Fathers Day Babe! You are an incredible father and I cant wait to watch our kids grow up with you as a father! Some of the best parts of my day are when you and Kylee laugh together :)

Kylee after we got done swimming
Today I took Kylee to the base pool, which has a pool for big kids and a toddler pool. I didnt get any pictures though because Josh wasnt there. She did okay in the toddler pool, but once I tried the big kid pool, she loved it. She laughed and jumped around and splashed the entire time. I honestly think it was my favorite hour with her so far.

Yesterday we introduced a sippy cup with just water in it to Kylee. Its the first time she has had water, too.
Not happy with it at all!

Today I gave her the same cup, this time with water and a little bit of apple juice. I had to keep drinking out of the cup, once she watched me she would try it.

Baby Kylee rolling around yesterday to get to Nash. I'm still not positive on how he feels about her, but boy does her face light up when she sees him.

Josh and Kylee yesterday morning

my little tired baby. she's been fussy and drooling a ton the past two days so we are wondering if tooth number three is coming in.

I had to post this video of Kylee scooting around. She is somewhat crawling on her stomach, but mostly she gets around on her back. Its so funny and cute to watch.

Yesterday while I was making dinner I put Kylee in her exersaucer and she fell asleep

and then...I was talking on the phone with Grammy while I was feeding Kylee and she grabbed the bowl, so i let her play with the bowl (still full of rice cereal)

yeah it wasnt pretty. it was bathtime

notice Nash in the background eating what she flung on the floor...

earlier in the day while i was doing dishes Kylee found she could play with her johnny jumper and bumbo at the same time!

i took a picture of kylee scootin!
At a going away party at the beach on saturday, Kylee was content to lay on the Vikings blanket and roll/scoot everywhere

and eat her feet

not the prettiest beach we have been to, but still nice

the beach is primarily for surfing, so thats what Josh did. for the first time. he really liked it.

We are dog sitting Campbell this week for a neighbors. Nash and Campbell have had lots of fun.

I was trying to get Kylee to stick her tongue out at me...

Bath pictures

Kylee is finally playing (a little bit) with bath toys
such a happy baby

and look, your first picture of your first tooth! (yeah, its the little speck of white you can barely see)

Nash, Kylee and Josh hanging out the other night

Kylee still loves her laptop!

Josh and I are so very thankful today. After spending so much time at the hospital the past three weeks, we had our last follow up with her regular DR today, and he gave her a clean bill of health. Everything the DR's tested for was either negative or inconclusive. We also saw a cardiologist today and they ran a bunch of tests, and they also said Kylee is a very healthy baby. We have to continue to monitor her cough and will do the normal 9 month checkup and chest xray, but other than that...we are free and clear! So hopefully that is the last we see of hospitals for a very long time!

Ready to go out for Daddy's birthday
Look at Kylee smiling!

Yes...my young husband is only 25...

I cant believe how long it is taking this tooth to come in! Its been a week and its still barely poking out...

Josh had a special Army function friday night, so the wives got together and had our own special night. Kids included, of course.

My baby all dressed up for his dining in.

Goodbye Grammy!

Grammy and Kylee cuddling before she left.

Kylee has been sick the last few days with a cold and teething so Grammy spent a lot of time holding her and rocking her. We actually saw the tooth breaking through last night!

This is Kylee's new favorite toy

This morning she was so tired she fell asleep while playing/holding a toy, so I had to get a picture of it.

Mommy and Kylee hanging out the other night.
Kylee in her cousin Alaina's outfit :)

Look how cute she is today!

Today is Grammy's last day here :(

I love to give you kisses but...

Its way past your bedtime!

Our Doctor was supposed to call us today and give us the results of the bronchoscopy...but no phone call yet. We did have to go see another dr today though, Kylee has a viral cold. Thats what they said anyways. And Grammy flies out in just a few hours.
