Catching Up

We had a very busy summer but are getting back into the groove of work, teaching, etc. We had one of our favorite German house guest for a month in July/August so we had lots of distractions. We thought we would just post a few pictures from our summer to get you all somewhat caught up.

Alma absolutely loved Martin this visit. They play and fought like siblings. I suppose this was good training for her. 



We have been spending a lot of time outside. With no AC it is much cooler outside and Alma really likes getting out and about. 








Alma is also a wonderful assistant. Regardless of what we are doing she wants to be helping - she is surprisingly good with laundry, cooking, cleaning. Lets just hope her interest maintains. 


She also just likes to get into things. Like our clothes, shoes, whatever interest her in the moment. 






We spent a lot of time in the pool this summer. It has been really hot here (more than normal) so we needed quick cool downs a lot. 





Thought I would also share a few of Alma's favorite things right now. Alma carried around these very small toys for about 2 months. She did everything with these in her hand - slept, ate, bathed everything!


Next we have an outdoor buddy of hers. This belongs to one of the neighbors and absolutely loves this. Unfortunately as with anything metal in Hawaii, he will not be with us much longer.





Alma's Cooking Conversation

Too cute not to share....Just love my kitchen side kick.
