Aquarium of the pacific- Long beach 7-17-12

Malia and mommy watching the tropical fish swim.

Malia loved the jellyfish. Thank goodness for the glass.

Daddy and his little girl.

The aquariums were amazing.

Malia and I were observing a large stingray.

Peek a boo baby

I think Malia has caught on to mommy and daddy checking on her.

Malia dancing to Veggie Tales

Malia loves Veggie Tales. As soon as music come on she starts bobbing her head to the music. 6 Months and she already has a love of music. Yep... she's our daughter.

Good Morning!
Love waking up to this little face. :)

"A baby girl... one of the most beautiful miracles in life, one of the greatest joys we can ever know, and one of the reasons why there is a little extra sunshine, laughter and happiness in your world today."

Mischievous Malia- Video

A video of Malia watching veggie tales. Mommy is secretly video taping Malia's reaction to the movie. Mommy is eventually caught red handed.

Malia's has mastered the ability to sit up with an occational tumble and face plant every now and then. Mommy and Malia enjoyed an afternoon at the park a few blocks from our house. I predict she will be wanting to go a lot more when she starts walking.

I love this picture of daddy and Malia. So cute and pudggy. The doctors say she is underweight? I look at this picture and think "REALLY".

Aunty Ammie sent a carepackage from Japan for Malia. Ammie just gave birth to her second baby two weeks prior and still manages to think of her little niece. I admire my sisters thoughtfulness and kind nature.

I think Malia like's the swing.

Power

If you had a power, any power at all, what would it be? Would you use your power for good, would you use it for service to help another, or would you keep it to yourself and hide it away. Would you take it for granted, or share it with every one you know! Consider this, we all have a power, a power to change, a power to love a power to lead to gain knowledge and a power to grow. So I leave you with this, what will you do with your power today?

Have a great day everyone, today is what you make it!!!

Snow flake March 2012

Every being has its personal path to follow. Life has Its ups, it’s downs, and detours along the way; however, through it all, life is ours. We create the best of world we live in and most importantly love ourselves for who we are. Not a soul is the same, we are as different as snowflakes, each bringing with it a unique splendor all its own. Every flaw and crafted design so individually distinctive from the rest. So my little snow flake what I am saying is, you are your own perfect snow flake, just the way you are!

Fathers Day

Malia's fathers day gift. We framed it and hung it up in her room.

“For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh.” Genesis 2:24

I officially deleted my face book account today. Now that the blog is up and running I can inform and notify family and friends of our life without the unnecessary and unwanted nonsense attached to face book. I feel having a blog will allow a intimate correspondence and flow of information to dear friends and family.

UPDATE ON OUR LIFE

Malia is 6 months and the time has flown by faster than I would like to acknowledge. She is literally growing right before our eyes. Its bittersweet knowing that she is continually developing into her own person. Every day we are able to see a glimpse of her personality. She is rapidly learning to develop her personal skills and has become aware of her surroundings.

Brad is working at second floor in Huntington Beach. He’s been promoted to manager and has done a wonderful job with assisting in their productivity. The work hours are conflicting with mine but we learn to adjust just as we have learned to adjust with other things that has become obstacles.

A surf scout with a wetsuit company has recently spotted Brad surfing and has offered to sponsor him in contests. His first contest will take place July 8^th. I know he will do an amazing job. Malia and I will be up front standing as his biggest fans cheering daddy on.

I have been adjusting to life as a working mom, working 40 plus hours a week. It’s hard to leave Malia during the days. I find myself watching past videos of her throughout the day just to feel closer to her. It’s unfortunate that I can only spend a few hours a night with her before she goes to sleep. I truly cherish that time together with her. At least, I can take relief in knowing Brad is with her during the days and is doing a wonderful job at raising our child. He’s active and engaged in every aspect of her life.

I have started running with Malia and am ready to work my way up to 12 miles again. Although 12 miles maybe difficult with a 6 month old. I was lucky to finish 7miles.

Painting has been put on the back burner for some time now although I think it’s about time to restart this passion now that everyone has adjusted to their schedules.

MAY 1st 2012

We have moved into our new home a block from the ocean. It was time to say good bye to our old apartment 21051 Newland Ave. So many fond memories. This was the first place we called home as a family. A place were we learned to become better as a couple. A place were we laid our head each night. Our house became a home. This home produced love and trust in eachother. This home is where Malia grew inside mommies belly and eventually was introduced to the world. For the first 4 months of her life we watched her grow.
Now its time to say goodbye and start a new chaper in our life. Our growing family is ready to expand and we have found a house which will acommidate us. This house will hold a special place in our heart.

Love,
Aubrey, Brad and Malia

After church service with mommy.

Matching outfits with daddy and Malia. Ready for the windy weather. Burrrr

Eating at Jans Cafe in Huntington Beach. This moby wrap is a life saver.

Malia's first time in the pool with daddy. 5 months.

A beach day with that family. Malia can roll over by herself. She is continually growing and learning so quickly.
I'm amazed by her ability to learn, adapt and grow.
