I still can't believe that it has been two years since our wedding day. To be honest, it feels like just last month we were working on seating charts and writing thank you notes for all our wedding presents. The last two years have been amazing and I continue to love Lucas more and more each day. He has given me an unbelievable life and the best gift anyone can ever give me... Ke'alohi... They are the light of my life. My life … [Read more...]

She weighed in at 9 pounds and 2 ounces, measured 21.5 inches and her head circumference was 15 inches.Dr. Miller commented on how well Ke'alohi was doing when we put her on her stomach for "tummy time" and said that we should continue to do that everyday to help her … [Read more...]

June 5, 2011 By Leave a Comment
My little girl is officially growing up. Okay, well not really but she is allowed to take baths now. It happened this morning while Puna (my mom) was holding her. All of a sudden Puna yelled at me to get a little bag and a camera because her piko had fallen off. Her piko that is left behind couldn't be cuter and I can't wait to give that opu (tummy) tons of kisses in the future! … [Read more...]
First Bath!

The next big first this week was Ke'alohi's first bath. Surprisingly, she loves baths! The second she hit the water she completely calmed down and just chilled in the sink. She must get the love of water from me because I just love baths and soaking in the tub! I'm sure we will have lots of fun in the tub once her piko (belly button) falls off! … [Read more...]
First Doctor’s Appointment!

One of the first "firsts" we have had was Ke'alohi's doctor's appointment. She weighed in at 8 pounds even, measured 20.5 inches and her head circumference was 14.6 inches. We got to meet her doctor and to our surprise and happiness, she is also from Hawaii! We got to ask Dr. Ouchi lots of questions, like about her birthmark on her back and the little dimple on her butt. If Dr. Ouchi being from Hawaii wasn't great enough, her … [Read more...]
We’re Home!

We are finally home from the hospital! It is weird to think that I hadn't been outside in the sun in almost five days. The last few days have been a whirlwind of happiness and excitement. We have been blessed with great doctors, nurses, family and friends that have showered us with help and love. The first visitors we had were my mom, Lucas' parents and Elijah (Lucas' best friend and Ke'alohi's godfather). Over the … [Read more...]
