Hawaii
Hawaii is amazing. We left on the 17th for Portland and flew out the 18th. Note to self***a tired baby on a 6 hour flight is the only way to fly**. Adalie is amazing - she slept the first 3 hours and played peekaboo the remaining 3. Thank you for all of the interactive fliers next to us who participated in this endless game full of lots of giggles. :) We flew into Honolulu and spent two nights at the Hilton downtown (thank you hotwire for the great room and awesome deal). The hotel was two blocks away from the beach where Adalie had her first salt water experience. She was freaked until she realized it was endless splashing - YEAH!!!!
TURKEY and Surf
Hale'ewa
Wow - what an experience - thank you thank you thank you Scott and Jill. This was an amazing trip hanging out with you all! We met up on Saturday and spent the next 7 days actually relaxing, something we have not done since last September of 09' (about 3 months before Adalie was born). Thank you. The company was great, the house was beautiful and the experience was a once in a lifetime opportunity - mahalo!
More Hawaii pics

The last three days in Hawaii, spent on the big Island - and viewing volcanoes...does this seem crazy - I mean it is erupting behind us...ummm can't wait to get off this Island. Kona was very pretty though and I hope to be back one day to compete in the Ironman!
Maybe with Addie... :)

Adalie's Milestones
Adalie is now crawling everywhere and pulling herself up on anything that will support her (and even items that don't). She is so mobile and fast, who knew that a baby could crawl as fast as an adult can run....phew - I'm out of breath just thinking about it. She is now also able to feed herself and kind of gets upset if someone tries to feed her. Holding her own bottle is also new. What determination this little girl has already, she has started scrunching her nose and puckering her lips when trying to master whatever she has set her mind too. Amazingly she usually concurs whatever she has set out to do. Look out world here she comes!

Wings of an angel
The day before Halloween Great Grandma Mary had to say goodbye to this reality. We continue to miss her with all of our hearts and think about her on a daily basis. I believe that beautiful, loving people are put on this earth to show us angels are real and we know that GG Mary is now able to spread her wings. We love and miss you!

Also check out Adalie's arm....she now throwing the ball for her other best friend Porter...ye throwing the ball - thank god this girls going to be athletic...I don't know what I'll do if she's not.
Happy Halloween
Saturday Adalie had her first pumpkin patch experience...come to think of it it was my first pumpkin patch experience too. I could not have asked for a better first experience. My mom and dad joined us along with Aunt Konnie (Jon was working and Rick was hunting). We played with lots of pumpkins and ended up picking the four best in the patch :) . So much fun. The next night Jon, Konnie, Adalie and I carved some mean patterns that are sure to illuminate the way for the poor freezing children brave enough to trick or treat in the snow. Hope everyone has a great Halloween!

Sandy Jacobs
Most days I try to focus on the brighter side of life, why spend time focusing on anything but the positive. When one puts a loved pet down, trying to focus on all of the happy memories with the pet makes life that much sadder. My Sandy girl was laid down today and I will miss her greatly, more than I can write in any blog. She is part of my happiness and will forever hold a place in my heart.

We are at home this weekend :)
DO YOU SEE THE TEETH?
WARM BABY
The family
Happy Baby = happy mom
After traveling for the last few weekends and moving I am glad to say Adalie and I will be home this weekend. Last weekend we were in Salem and Eugene. Sunday, in Eugene, Adalie and I attended Tiffany's beautiful wedding. WOW - talk about a gorgeous wedding and dress. We love you Tiff! **very happy for you***.
Adalie is getting her first two teeth, yes at the same time. How cute is she. The bottom two front teeth are racing through her gums...note to self it is possible for a child not to sleep for 24 hours and no 10 minute naps don't count. It's my own Karma, Monday at work I was talking about how her new tooth wasn't really bothering her...little did I know the next four nights would prove me wrong.
We are moved into our new home - in town!!!! SO HAPPY TO BE IN TOWN!!! I can actually go home for lunch if I want.
Here are some updated photos - lots of love to everyone - take care and stop by and say hi if you have a minute- would love the company :)
