Gymboree Tuesdays

...or as I like to think of them, Cinnabon, book, and CD Tuesdays. A little something for Zach in the morning and a little something for me after. Zach, being the "advanced" baby that he is, has moved up to level two of Gymboree Play and Learn classes. (We've got the Harvard application all filled out.) We enjoy spending one morning a week with other babies in a space that is virtually worry free...at least for 45 minutes anyway. He can crawl, pull up, wander away without me worrying for his safety every second. The padded mats and toys geared for developing babies is a welcomed break from our hard wood floors, glass front entertainment center, shelves of books...in other words, we have not baby proofed. After our Tuesday morning class and free play it is now our tradition to follow it up with a pit stop at the mall...how can I not when it is literally feet away?! First we pop into Book Off to see what's new. This week I scored with an old favorite Pearl Jam CD (Riot Act)
and book three of yet another Young Adult series. After careful scouting of the used book store, we then make our way upstairs for the Tuesday outing finale...Cinnabon. Tuesdays with Zach are perfection.

What young adult series are you reading now? Young adult novels are a favorite of mine...And I'm always looking for good books to recommend to the young adults in my life (30 6th & 7th graders)! :-)

Pali Notches: Cloudy, Muddy, Windy, and Scary

Image
Last week I added a "notch" in my hiking/climbing belt...Pali Notches.  Here's my disclaimer: I'm not responsible for your decision to do this hike.  If you are afraid of heights, not comfortable climbing, unprepared for changing weather conditions...don't do it!  When in doubt, don't go out applies for this hike.  That being said...last week I did the scariest hike I've ever done...and I survived! If you have followed my blog for awhile, you will know that the past year my blog has been regularly dedicated to my weekly hiking adventures.  A new hike, a new post.  But, before my hiking obsession, there was a cupcake baking obsession.  A new recipe, a new post.  Clearly I'm passionate about specific things and like to share it on my blog, lucky you.  During the cupcake phase, my sporty behavior pretty much consisted of couch surfing.  So, to be hiking an average of four times a week and eating zero cupcakes...well, I've come a long way.

Mililani Exploration: Kipapa Stream Trail

Learn something new everyday. Today, I learned there is a lovely neighborhood park in walking distance from my house...and a fabulous hiking trail just behind that!  Today we were finally able to go on a hike---without driving (well, sort of...more on that later). We simply geared up, walked out of our house and to a trail we'd never explored before. Adventure Saturday! Today's hike was 2.2 miles (one way) on a partially old paved road, winding around the back woods of Mililani, down to Kipapa Stream, back up to...Costco in Waipio. Say what? We truly had not planned on arriving on the oustskirts of a farm that is directly across from our local Costco. Hiking truly lands you in the most unexpected places.   Along our route we encountered dirt bikers, a small band of pre-teen scooter riders, a couple of farm hands in a truck, a very intimidating junkyard dog, zero other hikers, and a friendly Starbucks Barista.  That's right, after our Saturday surprise hiking adventure, we f

Shameless Plug...

I'm in love with this new outfit of Zach's. Okay, outfit might be stretching it...onesie. I have to share. As usual, the picture is sub standard, but if you click here , you can go to the website where other cuteness can be found. Better pictures there. I guess that's why I don't get paid the big bucks, I can spread the word, but my advertising photo skills are lacking. No matter. Still a cute onesie. And still a cute baby. Thanks to my mommy friend Summer for sharing this rocking onesie with us. We love it. Consider this the thank you note?
