Manoa Falls Trail










Yesterday we went on this really cool trail through the rainforest that takes you up to a 100ft waterfall, about 2 miles round trip. It was really muddy on the trail and a little crazy for a 28 week pregnant person to go on but I think I did really good and really don't feel anything today. The baby seemed to enjoy it. Adeleah on the other hand didn't like being in the carrier very much, but she loved the water at the top and so badly wanted to play in it. We did let her put her feet in and play a little. Then on the way down Gabe just held her so that we didn't have to listen to her. It is a trail we will do again but I would say that it is not great for kids unless they can be in a carrier or big enough to do it themselves. It made for a great day together as a family.

18 Months




I can't believe that Adeleah is 18 months already but we were very much ready for it. She went to her 1st day of nursery Sunday and she did great. She didn't care when daddy left and could care less when I went in to do the roll for primary. We hope it will stay that way:) Besides that she is doing great and finally starting to say some words. She can be a good helper but only when she wants to. She LOVES to watch "Tom and Jerry." If I need to get something done all I have to do is put it on and she will set there until its over. Other then that we are loving parts of this age and not so much other things that come with it.



This is just something we found funny the other night, well Gabe more then me:)

Gabes Birthday

Gabes Cake, not very good looking but it did taste good!
Gabes Birthday was on Monday but we had cake on Sunday with some friends of ours. Monday they watched Adeleah so that Gabe and I could go out to dinner. It was so nice to go out without her. I mean we love having her with us but man was it nice to just be able to talk and things just the two of us. We went to this really nice place called Top of Waikiki. Its a 360 revolving restaurant over looking the city and beach. It takes about an hour to go all the way around and so by the time you eat and everything you make it all the way around. It was really nice to have a night out with Gabe for his birthday. And thanks Nicole for watching Adeleah.

Hanauma Bay




Adeleah loves the beach.
Didn't Gabe look so hot!

I am 25 weeks here.

On Sat we went to Hanauma Bay for part of Gabes birthday weekend. We actually have been wanting to go for weeks but just had other things to do. Anyway, it is one of the best places to go snorkeling. You can see a ton of really cool fish, that are all very colorful. This was my 2nd time snorkeling, its fun but being so pregnant makes it hard to stay out for very long. We had some friends there with us so Gabe and I were able to go out together, it was really nice to be able to go out with him. Gabe went out again by himself and was able to see a lot more. It was a fun day and we can't wait to go again.

Finally moved in!!!

So after not having our things for two months, we are finally in our house with all our things. I wish I could say that everything is ok from the move but thats what we get for moving over the ocean. Anyway, I have not yet taken pictures of the house because I am still putting small things away and putting things up. I hope that in the next week or so to have pictures for you all.

As of other news we are trying to come up with a name for baby girl, not as easy as with Adeleah. The only one that we both like so far is Kaylee. But I like it with a K and Gabe with a C. So I am going to put a poll up and would like you to vote on what one you like more. Or if you have a good name, I would love to hear it.

Other then that we are doing good and really enjoying living in Hawaii. The weather here is great, I have not seen it hotter then 87 and the lows are in the 70's. Plus I have made friends with a women from church that just lives down the street and they have two small kids that Adeleah can play with. Anyway, we are doing great and wish you could all be here with us. And I will hopefully post pictures in "my photos" of the things we have done so far in the next week.

We are having.......



A Girl!!!!

We had our ultrasound yesterday and everything looked great. The baby was moving all over and gave us some really good looks at her. She is about 14ozs right now. They gave us a 99.9% that she is going to be a girl. Gabe and I both thought it was going to be a boy, but yesterday I had a feeling that it was going to be a girl. Gabe was really shocked that its a girl:) It was funny to see his face when they said girl, I wish I had a picture of it. We are very excited to be having another girl and now we just have to come up with a name.

Hawaii

At the temple, its not reopened yet.
This is at the south part of the island, its a cool place to see the waves on the rocks.

The Blowhole

Gabe and Adeleah at the beach for our ward 4th of July thing.

Me at 20 weeks.

Sorry it has been so long, but we have had life a little crazy with the move and everything. We are in our house now but have none of our house things here yet and so still no computer to use. We are getting to know things better around here and are having fun. Adeleah is doing good with it all and making new friends (we are too just so you all know). I am doing good with the pregnancy and getting bigger everyday. We go in on the 15th/2 days for our ultrasound, can't wait to see what we are having! Gabe is doing good and loving living in HI. Anyway, I will slowly update on the things that we have done since being on the island, it will be sometime and more then likely after I get our computer so that I have the time to do it all. Well hope you are all doing great and having a great summer.
