Hawaii (Day 4)

Not too many pictures today. I haven't been feeling so great and didn't want to lug my camera around everywhere. We didn't do much in the afternoon due to wind and cloud coverage, making it too cold to swim.

This morning we took Hendrix to a little park and let him run around/play for a little bit since it was nice and early and there wasn't much else to do. We headed over to Lahaina after the park and walked up and down the streets. I love Lahaina! We'll probably eat dinner there tomorrow night and do some shoppping.

 His first time on a tire swing. Do you think he liked it?

 Okay, favorite picture of the day! Here are my boys hangin out in Lahaina.

I have to end each post with a sunset picture. This was the sunset tonight, I caught it a little late but it's still really pretty.

Hawaii (Day 3)

Not much going on today. It's been rainy, windy and overcast most of the day. We did go to the beach for a little bit while the sun was out this afternoon. We saw 2 turtles swimming along the shore, about 15 feet from us. They kept bobbing their heads out of the water and diving back under, sticking their little tails in the air. I tried to get a few pics but they're kind of hard to see.

Hendrix is feeling much better with steroids in his system. He didn't wake up once last night and had a long nap today. He's still pretty lethargic but doing better. We're going to bed pretty soon, hopefully he'll sleep good again tonight. He's been waking up nice and early at 5:30 (about 2 hours before the sun rises).

 This is one of the turtles we saw. You can't really tell it's a turtle but I thought I would document it anyway.

 Oh my goodness, I love them!

 Finding treasures in the sand with Daddy.

My sick, tired baby at the end of the day.

HAWAII (Days 1 &2)

We got to Hawaii yesterday around 3:00 pm and have had lot's of fun so far. The only thing that hasn't been wonderful is the fact that my poor baby has croup. Hendrix was pretty congested last night and didn't sleep very well but got worse as the day continued. He played hard despite the fact that he wasn't feeling well. After his nap I knew for sure that he had croup. He was having a hard time breathing and his cough sounded horrible. Luckily my pediatrician called in a presciption for some steroids to help him breathe better and he seems to be improving. We'll see how tonight goes.

I haven't taken too many pictures yet, we've been having too much fun. We did take Hendrix to the beach today and he could not get enough of the sand, water and waves. I mean, NO FEAR whatsoever of the ocean. He was being so crazy, one of us had to be right next to him because the waves kept crashing in on top of him. When I laid him down for his nap today, he said, "I had so much fun swimming today."

This is the only picture I took on day 1. We went swimming as soon as we got here and then watched the sunset. Hendrix was SO excited to finally be in Hawaii, this is his "excited" smile.

Day 2

25 Week Pictures. Inside and Out.

Here is my 25 week belly! (Don't mind that my head is cut off.) It's amazing how much she's grown in just 5 weeks. We got to see her today in another ultra sound and it made me want to hold her/see her even more. It's amazing how I have grown to love this little fetus inside of me. She is getting so strong and reminds me daily with her little kids how lucky we are to be pregnant again.

Here are some cute pics we got today during our second ultra sound. She's right on track and weighs a whopping 1 lb. 10 oz. It's so fun to get to see your baby before they make a grand entrance into the world.

 Giving us the "okay" sign. She just wanted to let us know that all is well in her cozy little world.

 Sucking her thumb... just like her momma.

 3-D pics are super cool. Look at her little button nose.

She looks so peaceful and cozy.

Snuggling with Elmo

We were out running errands today and Hendrix said, "I just want to go home and snuggle with Elmo." I guess his idea of snuggling with Elmo is sitting on his lap, lol. When Hendrix goes to bed at night, he has to have: His "regular" blanket, his Lightning Mcqueen blanket and Elmo.

This is why we don't take naps anymore.

Oh my word. I had to document what my son is like at 10:00 PM when he's had a nap earlier in the day. We've been transitioning from having a nap to not having a nap for about a month now but I think it's quite clear that my son DOES NOT need a nap anymore. It's like he's on crack or something!

Last night he took his PJ's off and ran around like a crazy animal for at least 30 minutes. Let me remind you that it was 10:00 PM. He's so silly.

 Favorite picture of the night.

Somehow he ended up in the laundry basket. (Don't mind my bright flash, it was pretty dark.)

 What is going on here?

 This is what you get when you say, "Give me the stink eye." I seriously laughed so hard after I took this picture that I peed my pants. I promise my child has 2 front teeth and doesn't live in a trailer.

Oh, that's where my TUMS went.

I went into the bathroom yesterday and found THIS. Yes, those are my TUMS on the back of the toilet seat. I just cleaned the toilet but I think I'll opt for buying a new bottle. Not quite sure what was going through his little head when he did this.

Since it was bath time when I discovered where my TUMS were, I thought I would take a few pictures of Hendrix in the tub. He LOVES the tub and could stay in there for hours.

Awww, I nice little back massage. He does this everytime he gets in the bath.
