Maya was stoked!
She wanted to wear these elbow pads and knee pads so much
and walked around as happy as could be!

Kalia climbed into Maya's car seat and asked us to buckle her in,

Maya can sit forward and I still have her looking at the back of the seat.
Monday we went to the otherside and ran errands - didn't get too much done since very hard to fun shop with two little muchkins. The girls did get to play at the mall play area. Maya made a friend - well, actually met a baby and tried to poke her in the eye and pull her hair over and over again, Maya likes to play rough (did I mention she likes to pinch too?). And a girl wanted to be Kalia's friend and Kalia told her she only wanted to play with Maya. But the poor little girl just wanted to follow Kalia around and Kalia just ran away. So that was my day on the other side. Oh, we went to Costco and it was Maya's nap time and she was about to have a meltdown in the cart, but some lady started talking to her and it turned everything around. Maya is such a social creature - if you just interact with her she is just happy as can be. Thank you random lady at Costco, I really don't know what I was going to do. Of course, as soon as Maya was out of the cart, she was fine. We ate there and all Maya wanted to do was to walk to different tables and try to engage people who were eating and then run away from us when we tried to get her.Maya tries out Kalia's seat.

Happy Birthday Anthony!!! Hope you had a wonderful day!
So Saturday we woke up and found out there was a tsunami warning with evacuation from the earthquake in Chile. We literally didn't find out until 6:30AM, since we hadn't turned on the TV the night before. It was really just a weird day - there were cars lining the the road up to Kahana Ridge and people camping out at the top of the street. Erik spent quite a bit of time in the morning at the store trying to get us some supplies. I have to say that the supplies Erik got made everyone happy - we usually don't get the trail mix with m&m's or granola bars with chocolate chips. Yes, Daddy brings home the fun food and I gobbled it up too. Anyway, it was a really long time to wait - since the potential tsunami wasn't supposed to hit Maui until 11:25AM and then it was a couple hours until they called off the warning. It just seemed like such a weird day- we just waited and waited and then had to go back to normal life. Erik had to go to work and to a crazy night, they had to open the whole restaurant starting in the afternoon. I took the girls to the park just to get out of the house, I was about to lose my mind being at home all day.
Sunday, we had some really raining weather and still have had some windy/rainy weather. Erik had the girls in the morning and took them to Flemings. It's fun to do daddy things - I probably would have never taken them to Flemings on a rainy day. I think I do a lot with the girls - but daddy stuff is always different and fun. They found a stage set up for an event for the Ritz and Kalia did a little dance performance. He got some really cute shots!
Kalia is really into "designing" her hairstyle. She picks out which color hairbands, or which clips go where, how many braids, etc. When we went to the otherside (see mall photos above), Kalia had picked out the flower for one side, then she wanted this ribbon clip for the other and then she wanted more clips - so I had to cut her off.
Maya is obsessed with all things big kids. She loves to wear kalia's helmet and elbow/knee pads and she loves, loves kalia's scooter. Maya went down twice today on Kalia's scooter and still went back for more again and again. Unfortunately for both of them, Kalia's scooter is now put away in the closet since she refused to bring it home from the neighbors house. That girl really likes to test me. Her pink tutu skirt was put away in the closet for so long that we all forgot about it - just found it last week. Thus, the tsunami warning outfit she had on.
Maya is also having a shoe thing, I think they all go through this. But Maya has a whole drawer filled with shoes (Kalia's old ones that we saved for Maya, ones for Maya that don't fit yet, Kalia's shoes) to feed her obsession. Today she was pulling every shoe out and either throwing them on the floor, or bringing them over to me to put on her feet. She also will bring something over to you and hand it to you, then when you go to take it, she says "no, no" and pulls it away. I wonder where she got that from....hmmmm.

Almost forgot- the wedding dress. So we have been reading a lot of fairy tales lately and they all end up getting married at the end. Kalia was a little confused and thought that you had to be a princess to get married, so I explained it to her and then told her how daddy and I were married. Then I got out the photo album to show her, she was really excited about my "princess dress" and wanted to see it. So I got it out and then she asked me to put it on. At first I said no, then she kept asking and asking, so I changed my mind and put it on. And you know what, it was pretty fun. She even picked out a necklace for me to wear with it. The next day she wanted me to wear it again and when I said "no", she said she would wear it instead. So we got it out and I let her put it on. It was fun, but the hard part was taking it off, she really felt like a princess.
