New playground!

Napili Park, just a few minutes drive from our house. No bums! Ella is quite the climber and is all over the place!

Hikers on the crater!

We <3 hiking! High above the clouds and all the tourists, we finally found a little peace and quiet. We did this hike when I was pregnant, so it was special to come back with Ella. This time Kel actually hiked a little uphill. It was oh so pretty!

Back to Giggle Hill!

Visited Manolo and his girls and took them with us to play in the park. Ellie sure loves the swings!

Ellie with pigtails!

She's a little cranky because it's almost bedtime, but otherwise she didn't really mind. She looked adorable of course!

Happy Birthday Mommy!

What a Wonderful day! Presents in the morning and I got lots of great things. First thing was a big box and Ella popped out of it! Haha! Best present!New pair of sandals! My hubby got me a pair of Rainbow sandals! Wow! I got a new charm for my charm bracelet and a lot of other great gifts! I am so lucky!
Being my brithday, I was in charge, so I decided that we should hike Swinging Bridges. We have nevever seen as much water there. It was beautiful! We didn't quite go all the way, we didn't want to risk fording the stream with Ella on the back.

After the hike, we went back and dressed up to go out for dinner at Lahaina Grill. It was delicious! It was a great day! And happy anniversary to us as well! Eight years!

The Hikers at it again!

Ella's 1 year check up went well, just like everything she does! She weighs in at 22.5 lbs, or 10.2 kg and she measures 31.5 inches or 80.5 cm and is still the tallest baby on the block, in the 94th percentile. Just right, we think! So after another round of shots for her, which hurt her parents more than her probably, we went upcountry for another hike. Mommy lucked out again and got the uphill stretch.
