On our last day in Hawaii, we went to Hanalei Bay. I have been wanting to try stand up paddle boarding for a few years but haven't had the opportunity to do so. It intrigues me each time we go to Santa Cruz but the frigid water and need for a wet suit deters me. Hanalei Bay and Hanalei River was the perfect spot to try it. At the end of my time, Elliott joined me for a sit down paddle. We only took a quick trip since he wasn't too interested in sitting still.
We went for a swim in the bay and then Elliott took an air bath. He and Jesse were having a great time playing with Elliott's hat. This was the first time he belly laughed for an extended time. It happens regularly now.

Hi Mama
This is one of the most amazing views ever. From Princeville looking west over Hanalei and Hanalei Bay.
Elliott enjoyed "driving" the rental car. And turning all the knobs.
Family shot at dinner on our last night. We ate delicious sushi right next to the Hanalei River.
And then we went home! Elliott kept everyone entertained in the airport. He was carry-on size approved! He was a champion traveler on the way home, sleeping for 8 hours straight, the last half hour of which was while Jesse carried him through the Chicago airport.
We had such an amazing trip. The best part was being together. Our little family of three. For 10 days. In a beautiful place. It was amazing.
