we like lists around here, so

Here's a Naia News List for you:

- latest stats: 15 lbs, 10 oz and 27.5 inches (50th %ile for weight and 95 % for height) she's a tall one, lucky girl.

- we still aren't sure what her eye color is. Its mostly blue, but there is always some grey and green and sometimes some brown. i'll keep you posted

- she has insatiable energy.

- she's still teething, with no teeth to report. we're trying to be patient though.

- the whole family is enjoying, albeit a bit anxiously, the celtics in the playoffs.

- mom and daughter made it up the hill that our road is on with 15 1/2 lb naia in the front carrier. (i need to talk to her about pulling her weight around here.) Goal set, achieved, done.

- i had a GREAT first mother's day. From brooks letting me sleep in to a little clothes shopping, as I have a fashion plate daughter to keep up with. SO NICE.

- Naia still loves Chester, more than ever. he literally lets her pull out entire tufts of hair without flinching. With us on the other hand, he's still a punk.

- the road to solid foods has been a bit bumpy, so we've pulled over to the shoulder, if you will, for a bit.

- and last but not least, i know everyone already sort of knows this but we haven't officially announced it. Finally, we've actually gotten the ball rolling (giving notice for our rental and such) and its officially official (drumroll please)
WE ARE BOSTON BOUND!!
Dont know exactly when, but we are leaving our lovely island life and invading a town near most of you (or at least on the same chunk of land). While we're sad to leave (hopefully a blog on that later), we are VERY excited to go home. Home is where your famdamily is...


So, as you may infer, lots of exciting things have been going on here (an exhaustive list is not possible), and i do have pictures to document it, but its hard to keep up with this blog business... after all, having fun in maui with our sweet angel baby can keep me pretty busy...but here's a recent trip to the beach, a little before miss big shot was a big 6 mo/old.





ive been wanting to take the above picture for a while now, except i wanted it to be brooks with a beer and naia with a bottle... but since naia doesn't drink from a bottle (we're trying) i didn't have one handy =). I still think its pretty cute


i mean really



[To all our loyal readers...fyi, this is my forth "session" creating this blog. If that doesn't say love, i dont know what does!]

Those pics are really precious. I've never seen a little chair like that. Naia looks so grown up. We really appreciate all your work on the blog.
We're on our way back to Gloucester.
xxoo

Insatiable energy??? I wonder where she gets that. I used to think it was the coffee but I know better. Can't wait to see you in Boston. The spring is shaping up and summer will be beautiful especially with you all here!!
