When Maile went to bed on Friday night I told her I would have a surprise for her when she woke up on Saturday morning.

What?  Did you say surprise?  For me?

Grandma Gail and Grandpa Cal had to head home today. But, boy did Maile have fun spending time with them! She got to hear a lot of stories.

Maile tries plums

by Mommy K on March 10, 2010

Maile started eating solids right after her 5-month birthday. As you can tell from the blog, we have had fun documenting the process. The latest introduction to her diet was plums. Based on the pictures we are not quite sure if she likes or dislikes plums. You be the judge!

What is this new food?

Ooh, this is sour!

That wasn't so bad...

First stop sour plums, next stop li hing mui!

Saturday was Maile’s first swimming lesson!  We were sad that Daddy was in Boston and couldn’t come with us.  But we made up for it by having Grandma Gail and Grandpa Cal visiting SF.  Just in time to help serve as Maile’s paparazzi.  A special thanks to Grandma Jill and Grandma Gail who made sure I will be very fashionable at the pool.

When Maile got to the pool she had an extra surprise!  Her friend Allison was in the same class.  We are so excited we get to see her and her mommy Stephanie every week as we learn how to swim!

Look at Maile showing off her water skills!  What a natural!

Maile’s swim instructor also gave Grandma and Grandpa a preview of our future swim lessons (unfortunately they can’t come up every week for her lessons).  While not thrilled about this “advanced” lesson, I think she handled it like a champ!

We both had a great time at our lesson!  And can’t wait to see what we learn next week!

Phew, that was fun!

Phew, that was fun!
