Cloth Diapering | Traveling with Cloth Diapers

FB-DiaperStack-241x300

I have been waiting some time to write this because I didn't want to write something that was "in the heat of the moment" and irrational.  I will first off say that traveling with cloth diaper is totally doable but I won't lie and say that it is as simple as cloth diapering at home.  To be honest, it was pretty difficult for us and I don't know if I would do it again; it would have to depend on where we went and for how long.  There are a lot … [Read more...]

Project 52:31 | Taking the Reins

reins

Motherhood is... taking the reins Sometimes when you are a mom you have to "take the reins" and "grab the bull by it's horns."  Ke'alohi has just discovered Harley's leash and is now obsessed with "walking" her when Lucas and I take her outside with the dogs.  Ke'alohi and Harley are becoming pretty close recently and are almost best buds as you can see in this picture. If you want to see more blogs also participating in Project 52 check … [Read more...]

1-Year Photo Shoot with Janel

320_C0341_Mahina5_0081T

I can go on and on about Janel and Focus Photography, Inc.  She really is the "the best thing since sliced bread."  Two weeks ago we met up with her for our final photo shoot, her one-year photos.  I'm not going to lie, I was bummed that this was our last shoot but by the time we finished the photo shoot we already told her that we would be seeing her in November for our Christmas photos and in a couple weeks to design our photo album of … [Read more...]

Project 52:30 | Needing a Helping Hand

helping hand

Motherhood is... needing a helping hand Ke'alohi is just getting to the age where she wants to be independent but at the same time needs to know that we are right there next to her just in case she needs us to grab her hand.  She is not a fan of falling (who is?) and is really loving this "exploration" stage of her toddlerhood. If you want to see more blogs also participating in Project 52 check out Aubrey My Love, Blossoms and … [Read more...]

Babymel Amanda Diaper Bag Review

amanda bag

When I was on my search (for the third time) for a diaper bag, I felt like I knew a lot more (or at least hoped so) of what I wanted in a diaper bag.  When I was pregnant, the only two diaper bags I looked at was the LeSportsac Ryan Baby Bag and the Vera Bradley Baby Bag.  I wasn't thinking function, I was only looking at what was cute and the price.  In the end, I chose the Vera Bradley bag and was completely smitten... until our baby got … [Read more...]

Cloth Diapering | My Diaper System

FB-DiaperStack-241x300

My obsession of researching baby products finally met it's match when it came to choosing my cloth diapering system.  I will admit, I am extremely particular to the point were Lucas thinks says that I am borderline OCD.  My biggest thing is that things HAVE to match and if they can all be the same size or by the same brand, that's how I like it.  If I can match anything, especially with Ke'alohi's things, I try to.  We have all the same … [Read more...]

Dave and Katie’s Wedding

First Kiss

Let me first say that this wedding was one of the funnest weddings I have ever been to; there were so many things that I loved about it.  Let's start from the beginning of today; we woke up early this morning so that we could drive down to San Diego and hopefully check in early to our hotel room.  Along the way we stopped by Krispy Kreme so that Ke'alohi could watch the donuts being made and feast on her first donut which she loved.  We … [Read more...]
