Finally some pics from the Hawaii 2010 trip! The trip was needless to say lots of fun in the sun. It started a little rough when our flight to Hawaii had to return to LAX because of engine problems, as well as a medical emergency. Once we arrived in Hawaii we had been sitting on the airplane for 12 hours!! Very tough with 3 toddlers, and 3 pregs!! Once on the ground in Hawaii we were so happy to be off of the plane! Since the flight was delayed by so much we had to get a hotel and wait to catch another flight the next day to Kona. We finally made it to our destination and were happy to be done with planes, for a few days anyways!

The pics will tell you about the rest of the trip...I'm not a huge fan of preggo pics of myself (especially in a bathing suit) so they will mainly be of sweet Kaia - enjoy!!

She still loves to wink in pictures. In fact when you tell her to smile for a picture, or even pretend to take a picture of her with an invisible camera she will automatically wink...I'm trying to break her of it..here we are waiting for the men to get back with the rental cars...
Kaia LOVED the beach. She loved the water and the sand! She was in heaven with her cousins!The kids loved to be taken out on the body boards for rides on the waves at our 'private beach' in front of the beach house. This is Kaia and her cousin Malina. They loved being together! They became best friends- and would miss each other when they were apart.
This is Kaia's other cousin Jude - what a cutie!! They all loved the sand and water so much!!

Kaia and Mini again, sharing a rock as the waves are coming up to their feet- I'm just glad they are sharing it in this picture ;-)

We were on the beach every day but one. The spot in front of the beach house was perfect! We were able to see lots of sea turtles, snorkel, and the waves were very tame so the kids got used to running in and out of the water. It was really the perfect location!!

Daddy and Kaia again on the body board, she couldn't get enough!

As I said earlier she loves the sand....but maybe that was an understatement...she did this often, and would get covered!! She had so much fun!

My beauty! Hawaii looks good on her ;-)

This pic is from my brothers wedding at the Kona temple. It was such a beautiful location.

The bride and groom, (Kanani and Dan) And my two other brothers (Gabe, and Nick) and then my wonderful Chris :)

We had so much fun and were so glad the whole family could make it! Kaia had so much fun with her cousins, and thanks to Mini (who is a year older than Kaia) Kaia is talking alot more! Since we've been home Kaia has been a little lonely not having cousins around her all the time...
