We had the wonderful fortune to go on a 9-day trip to Hawaii with my brother Matt, sister-in-law Valerie, niece Tyler, mother Anne, and my mom's partner John. This was the first time that Ela met TJ (and her aunt and uncle) and it was fantastic to watch the babies together.
We took walks on the beach almost every day, cooked fantastic food, ate in wonderful restaurants, and generally had a great time exploring the town of Lahaina on Maui's west coast. We did some boogie-boarding and snorkling.
Ela was an absolute joy on the trip, and a real champ when it came to flying. She nursed anywhere, everywhere, on demand throughout the trip. She had her first dip in a swimming pool (which was an especially new experience since we don't take baths) and spent a little time in the ocean. She loved watching her big cousin TJ crawl and climb around everywhere. We noticed a distinct improvement in Ela's "tummy time" activities once she got inspired by TJ. Ela spent a little time alone with her Grammy and Papa John, and even rolled over for her grandma.
Here is the first set of photos from the Hawaii trip:
