Hawaii post #1

I am going to do a few posts about Hawaii since we did so much and have so many pictures. First thing was that I was terrified of the flight. I thought Alyssa would be awful. Well to my great surprise she was wonderful. She was very tired and ready for a nap on the way there. With the help of our friend benadryl she slept from take off to landing. I had debated a long time about giving her benadryl or not since it is not approved for children under 4. I found an old dosing chart for her age. Benadryl use to be approved for children 3 months and above. I gave her about 1/2 of what her dose would have been. She had no problems and slept wonderful. It was a good choice. But of course she woke up at 4 a.m. Hawaii time the first few nights.

We loved the beach. Alyssa was very timid at first, she loved the sand and would make me get the water in her bucket and did not want to touch the water. One time Russ was helping her in the water and a big wave came and covered her, he pulled her up. She was a little scared but okay.
For the first picture, Alyssa was loving climbing in and out of her stroller. she decided to climb in the basket underneath and couldn't get out with out my help, I had to take a picture first.
