We just got back from our kauai babymoon in Hawaii! It was absolutely magical and we didn’t want to leave!!! TBH We are conspiring on how we can move there in the next few years but until then, we will just bookmark this vacation under dreamy and look back on these photos often!

This little getaway was special in more ways than one…Not only is it the first time we have traveled in over a year because of the pandemic but it is also the last vacation we will take without a little one in tow. We also got to spend time with Leo’s twin brother who we haven’t seen in over a year which was so nice!

We obviously wanted to relax but this was also Leo’s first time to the islands and we wanted to make the most of the five days! Here is a little recap of our trip with details of where we stayed, ate, adventured and lounged!
