I'm not sure why you have so many, but regardless I opted for a gfi circuit breaker instead of gfi outlets in my kitchen. Regardless you probably won't see them when your kitchen is finished (I know every detail seems HUGE at this stage) or just paint over the light with white out.

Before you finish the backsplash, you might think of moving the outlets lower toward the countertop, so your applicances will cover them when plugged in, and they won't be in the very middle of the wall.

There are actually codes that require a certain number of GFIs in akitchen and also where the plugs can be placed as for the light it is true you won’t really think about it once you are all done.

There are codes for how many GFCI "protected" receptacles there are. A kitchen in the US is only required to have 2 - 20 amp small appliance branch circuits supplying as many receptacles as required for spacing. That means only two receptacles that have the "buttons and light" need to be in the kitchen if you don't use a GFCI breaker. On the other hand, Canada requires a separate circuit for every duplex receptacle in the kitchen, making every one a GFCI. Judging from the number of receptacles without the buttons and light, I would have to guess that this is in the US. Remodels can often need more than two receptacles with the buttons and light because of the way the wires are run or fished in.

There is the option of moving them under cabinets so you don't break up your backsplash so much visually
