A Stand Up Kinda Guy

This just in...Chum is now vertical! He decided to spend Sunday morning learning to stand on his own two tiny feet down at Salt Pond Beach Park. Later that afternoon, his Poppa was snacking on some chippies up at Hanalei Bay (his shoulder is still injured so he had to make due with watching the big surf) and Chum was intrigued. He stood and hooted, chumspeak for "Man, those look pretty good, pass 'em here Pops." Nick jiggled the bag and suddenly Chum took off lurching one!two!three!four!five!six!!!! steps.

Then he didn't get a chip. To make matters worse, we were cheering. I think Chum felt quite offended so out popped the notorious bottom lip and there were more than six tears.

Oh Chum. We are so proud of you. Sorry we won't feed you potato chips yet (or Mountain Dew ever!), but we really do love you...
