13 Weeks!!

We are still working on being lady-like.

October 20th

Miss Millie is starting to like her chair that Granny sent her. She was all dressed up in her Halloween costume for trunk or treat.

85 Days Old and such a chunk!

October 18th

 They are so silly.

 Pool day! I'm surprised he was liking it because it was COLD!

83 Days Old.

I just took the tags off this romper this morning and it barely fits. Size 6 months! What the heck little girl, slow down.

October 17th

Millie's first swing ride! And she liked it! So happy she is a bit bigger and can be outside for a bit (and the boys are too!) I got the backyard all cleaned up, threw out a bunch of broken toys, and now it's just waiting for Daddy to mow.

 Love Link peeking back at her :)

 Harrison wanted to give her a push

She looks angry, but just wasn't digging the sunshine in her face.

He was so proud to be on the big boy swing

82 Days Old

October 7th

We decided to head down to Waikiki Beach to watch the Friday night fireworks that they do every week. On they way, we stopped by the Iolani Palace to take some pictures, and it happened to be across the street from the building they use on Hawaii 5-0.

Happy to be out of the car seat!

 Everyone is looking! And when did Ethan get that tall??

The other one kept wandering....

 King Kamehameha the First

All 3 boys loved their night swim. Since when is sunset 6:12? That seems so early!! Lincoln must have jumped in 100 times, he fell asleep on the way home and we managed to get him to bed without waking up! Woot!

Short, but a good show. Harrison was scared, but liked watching them.

October 5th

10 weeks - I love her little toes in this picture.

I love Gilmore Girls. I've watched the entire series maybe 4 times, and the first 3 seasons (#teamjess) waaaay more. So when I saw that coffee shops around the country were going to transform into Luke's Diner for one day, I begged to go. So yes, we drove an hour for coffee, but it was totally worth it.

The coffee shop was adorable, and right on the water. Couldn't ask for a better view with your coffee.

View from the coffeehouse - that right there is Kokohead. The hike that Bill put on his bucket list. I might die.

October 3rd

Now that it's October, we only have a year left here in sunny Hawaii. We decided to make a final countdown list of our top 5 things we want to do before then. (And made some for the littles too)

Mommy

• Enjoy a cocktail from a pineapple (or coconut)
• Swim with dolphins
• Find a swing on the beach
• Go to Paradise Cove and (hopefully) swim with sea turtles again
• Visit the Byodo-In Temple

Daddy

• Swim with Sharks
• Go Snorkeling
• Go surfing
• Watch a sunrise on the beach
• Kokohead Hike

Ethan

• Eat Breakfast at the Aulani Resort (Disney Character Breakfast)
• Eat Shaved Ice from Matsumoto (Supposed to be the best!)
• Kayak
• Stand Up Paddle Board again
• Do the Maze at the Pineapple Plantation with no map (Help us!!)

We'd also like to go to at least one different beach a month, and hit all our favorites again. It's harder to go with Millie, but in a few months she should be liking it!

68 Days Old!

 54 Days

Obsessed with this Wizard of Oz Diaper!!

Failed attempt at a bro/sis diaper match picture. Pretty sure she is thinking, dude I remember you stepping on my head.

September 18th

Sometimes they love each other... it doesn't last long.

We took all 4 kids out for dinner for the first time. So funny to see people start to count them. You have....4? Like that's sooooo many. They were all well behaved too, better than they eat at home. Harrison didn't even throw his plate on the floor.

Ethan orders hot cocoa (as usual) and pretends its coffee lol such a grown up

unimpressed by her first restaurant experience
