4 Saying prayers at dinner.
5 Using a big boy fork! See those little legs under the table? And sitting on a phone book :)

7 He got to choose shower or sink. He chose the sink. He likes to recline for his baff.
8 He even got to sleep in Gramma's bed! So cute and snuggly!
9 Morning smiles...
10 And romping!
11 Counting how many yogurt-covered pretzels he wants, first thing in the morning! Little snacker! Instead, Gramma made "Sammy's coffee" - Ovaltine milk warmed up. It's a special weekend treat that Daddy makes for him.
12 Watching a car race just for kicks.
13 We met up at Kalapawai for breakfast - I sneaked up behind a trash can to take a candid of them. Mom saw only a big tuft of red and thought it was a huge dog hiding behind the trash can. She was ready for anything if the dog tried to get them. Then she saw a camera stick out from behind...
14 and they both thought how funny that is, a camera and a mommy, hiding behind a trash can. This is Sam's face, looking at me in bewilderment. He warmed up in a few seconds...probably the first of many embarrassing moments for him. Poor kid. :)
15 We had fun in the water after breakfast, building another kiddie pool in the sand, kayaking and letting Sammy learn how to float with his turtle floatie.
16 Dave took my mom's kayak out for a spin. The water was getting some decent swells (not pictured here) and he caught one parallel to the boat, then flipped! He is very big for this tiny kayak. His center of gravity is way too high, and the kayak is very responsive anyway.
17 But he got back in really well and paddled back to shore. Then he did another flip for Sam - Dave claims it's easier to get out that way :) heh heh - we'll never know the truth!
