Summer!!!


We went to the zoo at the beginning of May...I don't have many posts of the kids.  It was such an awesome visit though.  We went while all the volunteers were out.  They would answer any question we had. 
They had 2 baby elephants.  Later they bathed them and let them play in the water.  It was sooo cool!!
Porcupine and its trainer.  We could literally reach out and touch the porcupine it was so close.  Here it is waving.
Going down the slide at the zoo.


We spend as many days as we can at the pool!  It is so nice to be in the water again!  Yes, I know he has on pink floaties....I only have one of his.

Ikaia LOVES the water, and he loves even more being independent.  The first few times we held him he wanted nothing to do with us.  By the third day we threw these on him and he has been a happy camper ever since.


Kids playing catagories.

Everyday this boy gets better and better swimming. He just works on it the whole time we are there.  He can now swim half way across the pool and today he surprised me and started swimming free style all by himself. 



Gotta love tired kids ready for bed. 
The kids were throwing water balloons a few weeks back, so of course Ikaia snagged that hose.  He watered the lawn and himself, and he had a blast doing it.




Ikaia gets spoiled by his brothers and sisters.

Cute! I love the one of Ikaia sticking his face in the water. And Napela is doing so good swimming now!
