It's Friday night and I've realized that Fridays have a new meaning to me. They mean I get to spend the next three nights and two days with my little girl. I got such a treat at work today because Lucas was able to pick Ke'alohi up from daycare and bring her to my office when he picked me up from work. I got to show her off to my coworkers and show Ke'alohi my office. It was so much fun having her play on my desk!I wish I … [Read more...]
First Day of Work…

If I could sum up this day in one word it would be "tears." I thought these hormones and tears were supposed to stop after the pregnancy? I guess they will never really go away when you become a mom.We woke up extra early this morning to get Ke'alohi and myself ready for our first day apart. As usual, she took it better than I did and went to her daycare like it was a place she has been going to for months. I spent the day … [Read more...]

Today was an exciting day! Even though in the back of my head I was bumming that it was my last day of maternity leave, I am glad that I got to spend it with my friends laughing and smiling. And we had a great reason to celebrate; Kasey is going to be a mom! We spent the late morning and early afternoon munching on food, playing games and watching Kasey open presents! We still couldn't get the options for the baby's name out of … [Read more...]

Duke’s Surgery

Poor Duke has been living a rough life recently. We noticed that he started limping a couple months ago, but thought that it had to do with his weight and put him on a doggie diet. In the last few weeks, we noticed that it was getting worse so we brought him in again to see the doctor. The doctor let us know that he ruptured/tore his CCL in both of this knees. The CCL is like the dog ACL ligament in his knee and … [Read more...]

Four-Month Doctor’s Appointment

At this appointment with Dr. Ouchi, Ke'alohi weighed in at 16 pounds and 4 ounces, measured 25 inches and her head circumference was 16.75 inches.

We then talked about introducing solids into Ke'alohi's diet, but then all decided that we should wait until … [Read more...]
