America Trip: Hawaii

On our way back to Seattle- we stopped over in Hawaii for 2 days.  It was the best idea ever- as the 10 hour flight was a nightmare.  


Excited for Happy Hour

Best Sushi happy hour .. we didn't hold back.

..neither did Ellie- Ellie LOVED Sushi!



Dyllan made friends with a local girl.  They were playing all through dinner.  

We went bar hopping and shopping- then it started to rain.  Dyllan hates the rain- so insisted on putting Ellie's blanket over her while we walked down the street in the rain.


Mai Tai's at the Hilton (Dyllan got ice cream)!

Sushi girl

Someone takes after her mom...

I lost Dyllan at the shopping center the other day- she went sprinting off without me- and I couldn't find her anywhere! Just about as I started to panic- I tried the sushi restaurant.. And found this...

Ellie's 7 months

I'm a little late posting these basket pics - but here is Ellie at 7 months! She is a happy little squirt- but when she's hungry she will let you know! I don't remember Dyllan loving food this much. She loves toast, quinoa, rice, banana, and sucks down the packets of puréed fruits and vegetables. I don't even have time to put it on a spoon- so she sucks it straight from the squeeze pack. At $2 a packet- I desperately need to start making more of my own baby food!

Ellie loves daycare and is the center of attention with the toddlers in her class. The teachers say that they will continuously bring her new toys all day long. No wonder she likes it there..

Ellie loves bath time- and water- we took her swimming for the first time last weekend. She loves being part of the action and feels much more involved in her new highchair.

Her favorite thing is still probably hanging out with Dyllan- just as much as Ellie looks up to Dyllan - Dyllan adores Ellie. It's very cute. I think Dyllan sometimes tries to be her mom too. As i was holding Ellie over the sink this morning- dusting off all the quinoa crumbs, Dyllan said to Ellie- "you spilled quinoa all over your jeans, my dear.." These two crack me up..
