Hawaii Trip with Fam.

Great job, Daddy-boy :) Gosh, I'm so proud of him! He stuck with it, even though he was super sick on the bike. I look up to him so much for starting the run, even though he felt so yucky. Then he got into the swing of it after a few miles. That makes him an Ironman to me! This was his 12th finish at the Hawaii Ironman. Dad, you are amazing. You inspire me. (in every aspect of your life)










"Fesh"

That's how cute Kate says fish. She LOVED to see them. She'd squeal!




I love this little chapel at the hotel. I wanted to "renew our vows" last time we were there. Greg said he would. Then I brought it up later in the week and he was like; no way. He thought I was just kidding. He was not for it at all! haha That just shows you the power of suggestion...they had a picture posted in the elevator that has a cute little couple renewing their vows to each other by that chapel. I just thought it would be cute to just go in there are say how much we loved each other. I didn't mean that it had to be official or anything. Oh well! :)




We were soooo excited to go to this restaurant. It's Wolfgang Puck's restaurant. The lettuce wraps were even better than PF Changs. The pork was delicious, and their ice cream and cookies were so delicious. Such a cool place...and kid friendly too! They had special coloring things for Kate and a great kid's pizza. It was huge though. Anyway, was a cool experience to eat there :)






We had a really great family vacation. My brother and his family, and my parents were there. Kate LOVED the kiddie pool and the stairs to the pool. I loved the pool too. We also got to play on the beach. Great time. Greg's side of the family was on the other side of the island, so one of the days, we went up there and played in the pool and had a delicious BBQ with them.

What a great trip! You look fantastic, and Kate is looking more and more like a little girl instead of a baby. I sure miss our walks and talks!

Thanks for the comment on my blog Abbs! I was excited to read all your updates too! You guys are one fit family! So amazing! I am in awe that your dad has completed that race 12 times. I would love to hear him explain how he gets through it and pushes through even when he feels sick. Such a remarkable and inspirational man.

You are looking fabulous! You seriously make pregnancy look GREAT! So fun that little brother is almost here! You will love having two! Kate is just plain adorable! I am still sad that yall were in Texas when we were in Utah this summer. Would have LOVED to catch up! Next time for sure.

I am not sure if you read my post on my blog about Blake's baptism, but wow, I can't even tell you how much I was thinking about my own baptism as we were preparing for his. We have Stake baptisms here, and after having such an incredibly personal baptism myself, I wanted to make his feel that way too even though other kids were being baptized. As I prepared all the things we planned to do to make his day so very special, I was so thankful for you and your family for all that yall put into mine. You made it the most special, memorable, personal baptism a girl could ask for! I am ETERNALLY grateful for the Whitmans. Please give everyone my love.

Hope you are feeling great as you approach delivery day! Loves to you, your family, and new baby boy on the way! Praying for a safe and easy arrival for that little guy! Love ya!
