Today we got wonderful news! Our baby darling, Elena gained a pound in the last two weeks! That put her into the 20th percentile, so they aren’t taking her early as it means that Gretta’s placenta is doing it’s job.! She is at 4 pounds, 12 ounces, now, and they have her due date as Feb.28. So, if she continues to gain as she has, she’ll be a good size when she is born. Praise the Lord! They did a 3-d ultra sound and Elena posed prettily for them. Elena Morgan DeSantis is her name, and here she is:
The games begin. Tom is seeing what picture he has gotten on his camera, but Don will never let him rest about taking pictures of his shoe. You know how Don likes to kid everyone. Tom’s a good sport! We were out on a hill taking pictures of Pololu yesterday, in the following picture.. 
The following shot is Pololu Valley in the background as we head back to the road. Linda and Tom are doing great , but they say we whipped them today. J Today they went deep-sea fishing but didn’t catch or see a thing. They pulled back into the dock and the boat next to them had caught a 188-pound Marlin! At least we got to see that guy’s catch. They loved the trip, though, and are thinking of doing it, again if they have time..
This picture is a beautiful old tree on Alii Dr. in Kona. We noticed it today as we strolled around there shopping for souvenirs. 
You mean this isn't the banyan tree you talked about earlier? Is this even a banyan tree? whatever...its just beautiful.

Nope. This is not a banyan tree. I don't know what it is besides beautiful. There are really different and beautiful trees here. That reminds me I should take pictures of the banyan tree when we go this morning and other different and beautiful trees. Thanks for keeping an eye on us, Dana; next time you must come with us for real! Love you, Mary Jo
