Load me up with the good stuff!
We also carved our first pumpkin which he loved to look at once it was all lit up. All in all, Halloween was a lot of fun. It is so amazing to watch how he changes and though he is still shy of his first birthday it seems like he is growing up so much.
Aren't we cute!!!
Since the University of Hawaii Warriors football team is doing so well we thought we would attend a game this season. Currently we are trying to get tickets to the last game of the season against the University of Washington. As such, Leif picked up his first Warrior shirt to show his team spirit! Perhaps one day he, too, will be a rainbow warrior like his dad.
Leif learning the three point stance...but he can't count yet.
As you can see in the video he is greatly improving with his locomotion. Amanda and I both feel that there is a good chance that he will be walking by Thanksgiving. He has been walking bare foot this whole time so today we finally got him his first pair of shoes (he already grew out of his slippers--flip-flops for you off-islanders).
A big aloha to you all and hope you are enjoying a sunny and warm fall like us!!
a hui ho

Amanda - This is Heidi (Hough) Justice - Jessica forwarded your blog to me...you look fabulous and you have a darling little family. I hope all is well for you - I can't remember the last time I saw you??? I started a blog for my grandparents a few weeks ago, so not a lot on it, but here's the link... http://justicefamilycali.blogspot.com/

Oh my gosh...I love the turtle...I have a sea turtle on my car. If I had a camera I would send you a pix. I am missing so much...but am thankful for you two keeping me up on all events. Love Mom...P.S. GO WARRIORS!!!
Amanda-
I don't know which email address to use to email you, so I hope you check these comments :) Your doctor said it was fine to keep swaddling Leif? Chance loves it and I would love to keep swaddling him. The doctor was afraid it would limit his physical development, but Leif looks like he is doing great, walking early even! I love the turtle by the way. Did you make it or is that something you can only find in Hawaii? He looked so great. Let me know where to email you. I have a funny story about one of our SUU roomies. :)
