Aidan lost a tooth!

Aidan finally, at almost 6 1/2, lost a tooth. The second one was only about a week behind in falling out too. He got to lose that one while we were visiting Utah. Am I the only one that goes nuts about their smiles when they have missing teeth? I love it so much. It just makes me giggle about how cute they are.

can you see Mad sleeping behind him?

My sleepers

I know I'm not the only one with little ones falling asleep all over, but we can't help but take pictures every time and then I have to post them. They just look so sweet while they're sleeping.

More fun with Nana

We did so many things I am just going to make this a bunch of random pictures. We saw Spouting Horn, Menehune Fish Pond, the Kilauea Lighthouse, the Wet Cave (one of them at least!), tons of beaches, Sienna, Nana and I got matching slippers, and all of us girls painted our toes to match. We loved having Nana here so, so much. Come again soon, please. We love you!

Hanakapi`ai Trail

This trail is the beginining of the Kalalau Trail, but doesn't go to the very dangerous part. You can go 2 miles, to the beach or do 4 to the Falls. We would have liked to make it to the beach, but Mad wasn't having it. Next time, we'll get a better carrier for her. The older 2 were troopers, though and wanted to keep going. This trail is breath-taking. So insanely beautiful and we can't wait to go again!

The best way to cool down after a hot hike is by jumping into a nice cool ocean!

Baby #4...

is due February 10th!!! Since the last 2 came at 37 weeks we're thinking it might be the end of January, though. Everything is looking really well and the baby was moving so much even the Dr. commented on it. And no, I hadn't been binging on cookies or drinking caffeine. It's just a little jumping bean. We are all very excited and I will be very happy when my morning sickness passes, which seems to be getting worse the last several weeks. I am very grateful for it though, because I was never sick with the babies I miscarried. It has been reassuring in it's uncomfortableness.

Na Pali catamaran with Nana

My Mom was able to come and help babysit my kids for 2 days while I was in Montana and Spencer was on the Big Island for youth conference. Obviously after that, we played. She has been writing a book and going on a catamaran trip was part of the story so she needed to go for research. After the insanity of the trip we took with the kids a few months back, it was decided that just Nana, me and Sienna would go this time.

It was amazing. The weather was great and we actually got to see the Na Pali coast. So breath-takingly beautiful! The 3 of us got to snorkel in crystal clear waters. We even saw a white-tip reef shark (not to be confused with white-tip sharks). It was small and mellow, but still cool to see. I panicked for about 1 second when I saw the tail fin at the bottom, but then I realized it would be too small to do much damage. It was nice to know I wouldn't have a heart attack and die of fear. I can be rational and think. It was the perfect day.

We were so tired by the ride home!
