1 Sammy shops with money he earned taking care of Snooky while Dana was gone.	2 He bought a plate for his "secret garden" for 50 cents.	3 Handing the money over.	4 Riding out with his "loot"!
5	6 Mommy is nesting - this is for Dave to stow stuff in the attic and free up the guest room for Tim to come stay for a month.	7 Dave and Sam romping (taking a break from extreme nesting!).	8 Oh no - what happened to Daddy!
9	10 I love this one :)	11	12 And this one :)
13	14 Telling Turtle he had a good ride on that one!	15 The water was so warm late in the afternoon. We played for at least an hour.	16
17 Look at the little face!	18	19 Tired and worn out! He climbed up in the "man chair" and just cuddled up!	20 At gym class - he's in with the big kids now - no mommies!
21	22 Doing warm-ups...	23 Coach Di is showing them how to stretch.	24 Not sure I could do this - even without Ben in front!
25 He kept going and going!	26	27	28
29 Rope climbing!	30 All done with class - stamp time!	31 This was fun - Sam loves to throw a party, and I had some work to do in that guest room (remember the extreme nesting?). So I set him up with his "friends" and some other paraphernalia. He threw a birthday party for puppy, who was turning 5.	32 Complete with playdoh meals - from breakfast through dinner. Then they camped out and made s'mores together.
33 Each "friend" has a plate of food.	34 Off to interview the state entomologist - Mike "Bugman" Richardson. Fascinating...full write-up on www.outdoorohana.com.	35 Sam dressed up to go to the "office."	36
37 Showing us ants.	38	39	40 Mom just wanted a shot of the enormous belly.
41	42 How to catch small critters! Better hope that mesh connecting the two tubes doesn't slip!	43 Turns out Mike has a baby pig named Jane - he and his wife found her while out hiking. Sam and I stopped by (with mom of course) to see Jane.	44 Sam got to feed her a bottle of milk!
45 Voracious eater!	46	47	48 Now she's on to cat food.
49 This pig eats a lot!	50 Mike's pet centipede. He offered to let us take it home but we passed on that...	51	52 Big, huh? That's how big they are here.
53 Our getaway at Turtle Bay Resort - we had a massage in this little hut overlooking the ocean.	54 My $8 ring :) Doug - I thought of you when I bought this. Other than the corrosion it's getting now after two months of wear and tear in salt water, it looks pretty nice! (I needed a bigger pregnancy ring and was tired of wearing a toe ring with whales on it!)	55 Dave after his massage :)	56 Before going out to dinner...
57 Here I am, too!	58	59 The golf course Dave and Tim will play.	60 Overlooks the ocean...
61	62 Out for a walk. Background is the resort.	63 We left our shoes on the beach about a mile back, so we're hiking barefoot. What was Bugman saying about centipedes loving to live in ironwood forests????	64
65 Tormenting Dave...	66 We slept with the door open and heard the sound of the waves all night.	67 The view from our room...	68 Angel and Heidi picking me up for lunch.
69 More gym class - he's a good climber!	70 The trampoline is a huge hit always - here he learns to land on his rump and then pop right back up!	71 Being goofy - we decided to welcome daddy home in a nice outfit. He often plays in the afternoon in his tighty whities insisting on no shirt and no shorts! Today we thought it'd be funny to "dress up" with goggles :)	72 More gym class - he's pretty strong!
73 This is the path one of the turtles is taking to her nesting grounds at the French Frigate Shoals.	74 Some fun we had with fruity Cheerios - can you guess what we're doing? He got to eat the "extra" Cheerios out of his "dog bowl."	75	76
77 Waiting for Uncle Tim to arrive!	78	79	80
81 Reading time!!!	82	83 And Tim's first steps into the water :)	84 The sky above our pool.
85	86 Tim and Dave making pizzas for dinner. Yum!
