Update


As we prepare for our little boy to arrive we have been hanging out playing, going to the beach, and getting ready for our lives to change again. My mom and Rich arrived last Wed night so we have been trying to show them around the island as much as possible before they become babysitters and housekeepers. We have been up to the north shore to Waimea beach and Hanauma Bay known for the snorkeling where both Mom and Rich tried out snorkeling.



Emily has shown them how much she loves to swim in her pool and play in the backyard. Her newest thing is she can't go anywhere without her purse and baby stroller. We go shopping and when they hand me a receipt she has to put it into her purse. Some of the items you could find in her purse include...her cell phone, a bottle of lotion, a toy car and a business card (she is growing up to fast!).








The week prior to their arrival we had three days where we saw full rainbows with a full spectrum of colors...BEAUTIFUL. I don't think rainbows will become old to me. Ben also shot a funny picture of Emily walking around with his hat on.


Well July 2nd we will go to the hospital for a planned c-section and we will get to meet little boy at last. He still has no name, I guess we need to meet him prior to making a decision.

Surfer Dude!

We spent Father's Day at the beach. Ben has been wanting to take surfing lessons so we bought him a 2 hour lesson on the North Shore. Ben managed to get up a few times but I think this sport will take some practice. I think he really enjoyed it even though he didn't expect how much upper body strength it takes.



As we were at the showers cleaning up we met some Hawaiian guys who just came back from spear fishing. Ben enjoyed showing Emily the fish and octopus that the men caught.

Rainbow

Ben and I were driving off Ford Island the other day and saw the most amazing rainbow. This picture really doesn't justify just how beautiful it was. Enjoy!

Hey That's My Luggage!


I just downloaded some pictures from our other camera and found these from when we were packing our bags in New Jersey for our travels to the Midwest and Hawaii. Emily was to funny, all she wanted to do was hang out in Ben's suit case and empty it of course so he couldn't get his clothes packed as fast as he would of liked to.
