| Name: | Taven Makamae | | Birthdate: | July 27, 2002 | | Parents: | Tammy & Stephen (Keoki) | Favorite Toy/Activity: Anything outdoors! He loves water and all sports! He has a million balls and likes to drag them out at every possible chance. He's a runner too so you better watch out because you take your eyes off him for a second and he's gone! ;)
Latest Achievement: He copies everything you do! I was laying down with him the other night an blowing on his head to cool him off, he grabbed my head with both hands and started to blow as hard as he could at my head! And he's talking up a storm and adding new words daily. His latest is the word "stuck"!

I'm sure living in Hawaii he LOVES being outdoors so what's his favorite outdoor activity?
Does he know a lot of your traditions in Hawaii?
How well does he play with others his age?
paradisemommy replied: THANKS SO MUCH!!!!
I think I would have to say his favorite food is strawberries - I can't seem to keep them in the house!!!
I don't think he has a favorite book - I have shelves and shelves and shelves and he's always picking up book after book and bringing them to us to read to him - couple favorites would have to be this tractor book and aladin.
hmmm..favorite memory as a family would be...ummm sheesh maybe most recently we went and saw the incredibles (first movie) and he was such a good boy - but ended up falling asleep after about an hour!!!
paradisemommy replied: THANKS!!!
Oh man - I don't think he has a favorite outdoor activity - it's ANYTHING and EVERYTHING outside! He loves riding all his little toys (big wheel) and we have this motorized little pink thing that our neighbor gave him before she moved away! LOVES to play in sand and jumping in a bouncer..sorry - can't decide!!
I have taven in a parent assisted preschool where they teach him a lot of the hawaiian words and some customs and he knows all his body parts so far!!
He is absolutely perfect when playing with other kids - he shares and plays great with others - it's the other's that aren't so nice and I'm so afraid he'll pick up their bad manners..
My2Beauties replied: What is his favorite TV show? What were his first words?
ediep replied: he is such a cutie pie!!
Does he have any cousins? what foods does he dislike? What does he have for breakfast usually? Doe she like to watch TV?
A&A'smommy replied: he is adorable although that isn't surprising since his parents are also very beautiful!
What makes him laugh the hardest? What does he do to make you laugh the hardest? Does he like music? if yes what kind? What is his best time of day?
Maddie&EthansMom replied: What a handsome, smart little boy you have!!
What qualities of yours do you see in Taven? What qualities of his daddy do you see in Taven? Describe Taven in 3 words... What does he want for Christmas? Who is his favorite cartoon character?
paradisemommy replied: right now he LOVES Higgley Town Heroes
his first words were "open" and "up" then he combined them and was saying "open up"!!!
paradisemommy replied: awe thanks!!
He has tons of cousins!!! On my side: Drennen (9), Bo (7), Kendall (13), Colton (10) and MacKenzie (9 mos).
On dh side: Eva (12), Sianna (7) and Keoni (3)..but these ones are the only ones he knows and sees.
he's really good about trying any food - as long as he sees us eat it..it's pretty funny to watch though cause he'll take a bit and if he doesn't like it - he won't tell you. if you ask him..."is it good?" then he'll shake his head yes then when you ask him if he wants another bite, he'll tell you no thanks!! gosh as far as your question though...hmmmm..he's never liked sandwiches (tried every one imagineable) but that's about all i can think of...
for breakfast, we'll sometimes eat oatmeal with parmesan cheese and salt, yogurt, cereal or pancakes. though this morning we walked to jamba juice and got a donut (chocolate covered one) - he LOVES his jamba juice!! ha ha ha
he loves watching tv (a little too much!)
paradisemommy replied: thanks so much!!! thats really sweet of you!!
i would say being tickled by either daddy or mommy. one of us usually will hold him down while the other one tortures him - he laughs so hard he has that breathless wheezy laugh..it's absolutely adorable!
i would say just in every day stuff - the things he comes up with to say is hilarious. the other night we were all downstairs eating dinner and watching tv. out of the blue he starts saying "i wanna watch little mermaid" i told him he had to ask his dad so he walked over to him and handed him the little mermaid cover and said "daddy - i wanna watch little mermaid"..well keoki had just grabbed the cover and put it behind him on the table with a grunt and taven real innocently turned and looked at me and said "daddy said NO"..it was just the cutest thing!
he loves music!!! we listen to mostly hawaiian music (our radio is usually always on) but as far as HIS music - he loves the wiggles and sesame street.
i'd say his best time of day is early evening..he's a total spaz then and runs around endlessly!!
paradisemommy replied: thank you thank you!!
oh man..you're gonna make me think on these ones!!!
my qualities?? stubbornness, meticulous (at times), easy going dh's qualities?? stubbornness (yeah i know double trouble), very affectionate, outspoken
inquisitive, creative and affectionate
i don't think he really understands the whole meaning of christmas but i know he would love anything with tractors, tools or trains (he's all boy!!)
i think it would have to be either woody or buzz (it's a close tie between the two) - do they count??
