I'm not going to lie, before having Ke'alohi, I really didn't care that much about handbags or purses. Now that carrying a bag (along with a baby) is a daily occurrence, I have a new found love and desire for the most functional AND cutest bag to use. Last week I sadly ripped my old diaper bag that I loved, but quickly got over it when I realized I would get to buy a new one. After days of research and browsing, I found the bag … [Read more...]

My mom got in late last night for a week long visit. She is here to see Ke'alohi's first Halloween, grab dinner with Lucas' parents and to join in the trick-or-treating fun!

Another Visit from Auntie Jill
October 24, 2011 By 1 Comment
We are so thankful for Auntie Jill! Since we have had Ke'alohi, she has made it a point to make sure she stops by and visits us as much as possible. Through all these times we have seen her, she has decided that Ke'alohi is in great need for a cute nickname, one only she is allowed to use. We have all dubbed that because Auntie Jill is going to be the cool auntie in the convertible Audi that will take Ke'alohi … [Read more...]
