I am finally getting to posting some Hawaii pictures! We've been back for a week and two days, but I just hadn't gotten around to it until now. While we were in Hawaii, I didn't have regular internet access, so I wasn't able to make updates during the trip. Anyway, we had a wonderful time! I can't believe how quickly 2 weeks flew by; I could have easily stayed another 2 weeks! After the first night, Henry settled right in and loved his daily routine of swimming, beach, swimming, etc., etc. His water skills greatly improved with the daily swimming - he went from barely able to jump into the pool while holding on to both of our hands to running and leaping into the pool after telling me repeatedly to "move back! move back!" I have it on video somewhere...at some point I'll get it posted on here. He did equally well in the ocean riding on the same boogie board we got him last time - with a clear viewing window so he could see the fish just like we were while snorkeling. We saw lots of wild dolphins, sea turtles, a sting ray and of course fish. He really, really wanted to snorkel like the rest of us...maybe next time! Other than being in the water, he loved playing in the sand with all his sand toys. He also loved the nightly "nature" walks he went on - usually with Bumpa to look for toads, frogs and whatever else they could find. And of course, playing Angry Birds (that's what they are doing in the picture of Henry and Bumpa on the couch...).All in all, we had an amazing time. I think all of our most favorite part was just spending the time together...as sappy as that sounds!
