John's been living in Hawaii for over a year and has yet to see a shark. I've been here for two and a half and haven't seen one. Most dont. This film looks extremely interesting, given our location - we'll probably rent it.
(Sidenote: shark was dinner last night)

I was in the protests of the IWC
and I saw Paul Watson with SeaShepherd

I remember you posting pictures a few years ago from a trip that you took. I'm living in Waikiki. Haven't done much of snorkeling - after having been faced with ocean waters, they scare me. It's hard to overcome a fear of something that is a huge part of the culture/lifestyle around here. Surfing is a test, as well as swimming.

That looks amazing, thank you

sharkwater made me cry when i saw it.

Looks really interesting. The New Yorker had a long article on the Sea Shephard a few months ago.

I've been recently quite addicted to your blog, and I wanted to say that your daughter has the most incredible eyes...

You have a really beautiful family

I was actually planning on keeping the baby in our room...I am going to side car the crib against our bed [it's only a double and my guy is 6 foot 6 inches and I am 5 foot 9 inches..we barely have room for the two of us as it is] and we also have room for a changing table/dresser combo. This is my second child and I had a nursery with the first, but I never used it. I am too lazy to have to get up and walk down the hall everytime my baby wakes up in the middle of the night..

I do have to say that the swing came in handy with Trail..it was great when I needed to make dinner or what not.

thank you for the suggestions..I am going to get a sling though..I just wasn't sure what kind to get yet..I am still doing my registry. If you have any suggestions as to how many cloth diapers I need to start..that would help alot as it has been quite some time since I had to get all of that stuff
