Hawaii Day1.

I was determined to get us all to Hawaii this year, preferably before Chase turned 2 and we had to buy 6 plane tickets.  Last time we were there we had 3 babies and now those 3 are competent swimmers who love the beach and do well on trips...Hence the reason I knew we were ready for a return trip!  I searched the Internet multiple times and one day I found reasonable airfare for 1 week in March...YES! So off to Oahu we went with Grandma and Grandpa J. 

 The kids all have their own suitcases...Chase was feeling a bit left out so he pulled Andy's backpack around the airport.

The 1st day and most of the days that week were spent at Waikiki Beach. 
Warm water, easy waves, perfect weather = Paradise!

The kids loved the water!  They would play for hours everyday.  Once in awhile they would come up to our spot on the beach, Grandma J would think they were done playing but they were just getting a sand toy of some sort and they would head back out.  Total fish! 

 The 1st day Chase fell asleep cuddling with me while in the water.

 

He quickly learned that naps were going to be taken on the beach so everyday when he was ready he would get his paci, put a towel over his head and cuddle with Mom or Dad. He would sleep a good 2+ hours which was nice for everyone involved.
