6.5 months and VACATION!

 

 

 

 

Hawaii

We had so much fun in Hawaii, and Dalton was a trooper for the flight and trip. I have to tell what happened to me on the way there. I realized after we were already on the plane that I only packed two diapers in Dalton's bag for the 6 hr flight to Hawaii plus the 30 minute flight to change planes and fly from Honolulu to Maui. Wow! Poor Dalton. So after his first wet diaper 30 minutes into the flight I went searched for other mothers, but the only other baby on the plane wore size 5 and Dalton is size 2--not gonna work. I went into the bathroom to see what I could find, and I found a whole drawer of feminine pads-poor Dalton-so I lined the inside of his last remaining diaper with them, and switched them out as they were wet. Thak goodness he didn't do number 2!
Dalton was a little fish he loved all the water, day 1 he hated the waves-too scary, day 2 he was ok just looking at the waves but yelled at me when I got in them, he was scared for me, and day 3 he cried if you didn't get him in the ocean with you!

The highlight of the trip was Scott getting to snorkel with dolphins, a school of about 100 of them was out in the ocean playing with snorkelers and he made it out there about 600M to play too. Me, i wasn't so brave since we were taking turns snorkeling and watching Dalton, I think I made it out about 600M then turned around because they were out about 800M when i went out, I panicked and booked it back in when the water was too deep to see my hand in front of me!
I love Hawaii and try to talk Scott into monvig there, but I guess ill be ok vacationing often like we do. This was our third time together, Scott's 4th. Dalton is getting so big he still just has his two bottom teeth. He is scooting around, sitting up on his own, eating all kids of foods, he says hi and mama back after we say it-but he still has no idea what it means or what he's saying. He's 17 lbs and a few ounces. A big chubby chunker :) & He has tan lines in the fat rolls of his wrists from Hawaii :)
