First off, the hurricane turned into a tropical storm before it reached the big island and ended up bringing Oahu only mild winds and a fair bit of rain. In fact, since the storm was predicted to reach us Sunday night, and light rain and winds started early in the day, we had Waimea Bay pretty much all to ourselves for vball Sunday morning :) By early afternoon, the wind slowed temporarily and the sun peeked out just long enough for a Gordy, mommy and daddy swim in the ocean. He's such a beach/ocean pro now that he even let us rinse him off in the shower afterward, which was NOT warm.
In addition to experiencing his first tropical strom, Gordy met his cousin Adeline for the first time!
Although it was super cute for the adults to see them together and to picture how much fun they are going to have playing someday, I don't think that either one of them is very interested in the other one... unless Amanda is holding Gordy. Then Adeline seems a bit more interested :)
p.s. Gordy is wearing clothes in the photo because it was chilly that morning from the approaching hurricane Darby.
Finally, we had our Aussie friends and their kids up to visit on Monday. Our house was way too hot and stuffy, so we all packed up and headed to the Waialua pool for free swim. All of the kids seemed to enjoy it... Gordy loved it so much, that he fell asleep in the pool!
