Year: 2006

Mozart!

Leilani suddenly likes classical music. And I figured out how to make the video bigger….

There were doubts! :-) The soundtrack of the movie is original. No added comments, no added music, no volume tricks. The subtitles are exactly what I said in German (or a little bit shortened, but the exact meaning).

And another movie – about other music.

Potluck

Today we went to a potluck at the Wailua Houselots Park. Karla took pictures. It was so much fun that we decided to do it again next Tuesday. Andy adds: that was an absolute record time – less than 4 hours from real life to blog…

bonk…

Leilani set a new record today for bonking her head and pinching her fingers. She was uncontrollable, into everything, and super active. Fortunatelly she got tired from all the crawling and fighting mommy and her constraints, so she took two long naps. Unfortunatelly that made her go to bed close to 11pm…

She also ate a big meal today again, that’s a relieve after almost 10 days of almost exclusive nursing – she had a sore throat, and lost any interest in solids. Even though she only had a real fever from Thursday Aug. 3 evening – Sunday Aug 6. she acted strange from Wednesday morning through most of today (more crying, being very clingy, not eating, drinking very large amounts of water, and nursing like a newborn, waking up in the middle of the night, …)

Random Photos (7th month) – continued

I promised more photos to come in the original post, but didn’t get around to it….

We have to lock Leilani up occasionally. She takes it pretty well as long as the sentence is short, but does funny things, I guess because she figured out it catches our attention…

What the baby eats…

…and what she doesn’t. Actually we did not intend the pizza for us either, but the solar water heater installers and plumbers for whom we’d gotten it had already eaten lunch (or saw that it was vegetarian) – so Andy and I sacrificed ourselves…

Bath at Saltpond beach

Goodbye to the old swing… Leilani outgrew it, and even though the photos look like she had lots of fun on it, she was much happier in the highchair lately. She used to fit totally inside the seat, as shown in this old photo and this older one. She still has one outdoor and one disco swing.

Old Anini Photos

We haven’t gone camping in 3 weeks because of weather, work, and Leilani’s sore throat. We never got around to posting photos of a previous Anini camping trip either….
