Wong Wide Web – Ohana No Ka Oi

Toby started t-ball this season and he is having a blast playing with his buddies from daycare. Looks like he may be a lefty or may be a switch-hitter….still trying to figure that out. Here’s his first hit.  

Acme Bread Company is a great field trip that Tyler’s Kindergarten class was lucky enough to go to. Located in Mountain View, Acme Bread Company has been around since 1983. The kids got to see how bread was made from start to finish. They also got to take home their own little baguette (and so [...]

In addition to the Cumberland Walkathon last October, Cumberland had an auction to raise additional funds for their students. We had an opportunity to bid on many items and services that were donated by the Cumberland family. One auction item that caught my husband’s eye was the home-cooked Thai dinner party.

Toby has made some major changes in his life. He has made the move from Room 1 to Room 2. Though he’s not quite potty-trained yet, he is in the process and is well on his way. Hopefully we’ll be saying bye to diapers soon. Also, Toby has moved on from his tricycle to a [...]

Tyler started his first team sport of T-Ball. He was lucky enough to be on the same team as his best friend, Gavin, as well as have the team name of “Giants”. I don’t really know the rules of T-Ball, but it definitely a scaled-down version of little league baseball and there are really no [...]

Tyler and Toby have been progressing very well in their swim lessons at DACA. Tyler is having a lot of fun and working on his “Peanut Butter & Jelly” strokes.  This past weekend, Tyler did his PB&Js all by himself and received his RED RIBBON Toby has advanced to a stage where he is beyond [...]
