Crawling outside the Kauai Lighthouse in Princeville

The Beach at the Princeville St. Regis

We're on Kauai and Alex is almost 10 months old!

I can't believe how long it's been since I made an entry in this blog and update the pics. We have been sooo very busy with Alex...any "free" time is spent doing laundry or cleaning the house. It seems we are constantly on the go keeping Alex busy so he stays happy and grows. We are currently on the island of Kauai for 16 days with Oma and Opa. We spent the first week on the north shore (Princeville) and are now on the south shore (Poipu) for the second week. Alex has been crawling like crazy in the sand, swimming in the pools and baby beaches, cruising along all the furniture in our condos, and standing for up to 30 seconds at a time, unassisted. Walking is just around the corner for him...he may even take his first steps while on Kauai. He is so very healthy and has been eating better than ever, with lots of avocado, papaya, apricots, sweet potatoes, carrots, YoBaby yogurt, oatmeal, tofu, and lots of local fruits and veggies. He only has two teeth still, but the others are working their way in...we know because of the teething pain. He is having a wonderful time building memories with Oma and Opa...he giggles and cuddles with them all the time and everybody gets a kick out of it. He has been doing great during our almost daily car trips, checking out all of Kauai's hotspots. We are loving this age and looking forward to all the milestones on the horizon for our baby boy.
