A wedding and an owie

We were attending David's cousin, Kaimi's wedding reception and Aaron was off playing with the other kids and his aunties. They came back and told us Aaron was crying super hard. We checked it out and it turned out he had gotten his finger smashed in a window.

The girls (the aunties) told us that there was a girl that was outside the window and she was being kinda mean. She grabbed a chocolate bar from Aaron's cousin and shut the window on Aaron's hands.

I was really upset but it ended up being ok. The girl happened to come by our table and she apologized for both instances.

Cousins with Uncle David

This was taken back in March at the in-laws. You will be able to see in the pictures that the all the kids love to play on David. 
 
They all decided to ride him like a horse!

David is also really strong and can lift up his niece 

 and nephew. (haha, I just noticed that Makana and Aaron are doing the shaka in the first picture!)

 

and of course, Aaron had to get in on the action! (one handed too! David is so awesome!)

They all had to pose for a group picture too!

There were actually several takes before a majority of the people were looking at the camera. 

Don't they look like fun?!

Potty Training Update

Since the last post, he's had a couple accidents but nothing major. We were in Foodland on Saturday and weren't paying attention to the time and he peed by the candy when we were in line waiting to get rung up. 
We just have to bring up going to the potty constantly. 
BUT he is so good! 
That same night as the Foodland incident, we told him to just go use the toilet if he has to go shi-shi. We were watching Disney Channel in our room and all of a sudden, he slides off the bed and walks towards the living room, I followed him and found him in the dark bathroom using the toilet!! We are so proud! Since then, with just a couple of reminders, he's used the bathroom on his own. Sometimes when we tell him to just go (since it's been an hour or so since he last went), he'll say "Nooo" and head to the bathroom anyway and go :P
Last night, he just stopped what he was doing and walked to the bathroom! 
LOVE IT! 
Let's hope he keeps it up! 
Now we just gotta figure out the whole night time thing...
suggestions?

Funny kids, where do they get it from?!

Raya: 6 months

Raya's six month checkup was today and these are her stats:

weight: 17.4 lbs

height: 26.5 inches

Aren't these such funny pictures?

 She grabs her feet and likes to either chew on her hand at the same time or eat her foot! hee hee.

She hasn't crawled forward yet but she can totally scoot backwards!

(She actually fell off the bed one time from crying and scooting backwards when I was doing something...should I be telling you this?)

She isn't sitting up on her own yet either but will sure tell you when she does! 

She does sit up when we prop her up but eventually topples over! :D

Aaron in his undies

We've tried to potty train Aaron before by taking off his diaper and letting him run around the house naked but he didn't like it so much and was really uncomfortable with nothing on. 

When we went to Walmart this past month, we decided to buy Aaron some undies with Cars on them. We figured he might be more willing to be potty trained if he had some bebedees (spelling?) on.

On Monday night we finally opened up the package and let him try it on and started off the potty training process.  David officially started Aaron on Tuesday. Every half hour, Aaron goes shee-shee in the toilet. 

Aaron also did a #2 yesterday. Our neighbor Cherry told David on his Facebook status that she could actually hear Aaron from her bedroom window yell, "DADDY! I MADE DOODOO!!"

He only had two accidents yesterday. so far so good. *cross fingers* 
We'll see how it goes...I just wanted to share the pictures of Aaron in his Cars underwear!

David woke up to find them both cute like this
