For the last couple weeks, Ke'alohi and I have been on a quest to find a Mommy and Me class.  We looked at a couple places and finally decided that Gymboree was the place for us!  You may be asking, "what could a two-month old possibly do at this age?"  Well, right now we are just working on singing songs to the babies, tummy time, tracking with their eyes and and getting them to bat at toys.  Honestly, the class at this … [Read more...]

I can't believe that she is two months old!  How is the time flying by so fast?  I need to have a conversation with God and ask him to slow this time of her life down because I don't want to miss a second of it.Ten Facts about Ke'alohi at Two Months:Weighs 12 pounds and 3 ounces and measures 22.25 inches. Definitely smiles at Mommy and Daddy (especially when we make silly faces). Kind of cooing here and there. Drinks a full four ounces … [Read more...]

Yup, you read that right, Ke'alohi slept through the night for the first time! We are so lucky that she is such a great sleeper and has finally showed that off to us last night!  She went to bed around 10 pm and didn't get up until 6:30 am.  She did stir a little around 3 am but didn't need me to pick her up or feed her.  When Lucas got up this morning he asked me what time she woke up and how long we stayed up for and that's when … [Read more...]

I'm not going to lie but it's been a while since we have been to church.  We have been "slightly" pre-occupied with the pregnancy and Ke'alohi.  Now that the "dust has settled," we decided to venture out once again and take Ke'alohi to Mass.  We decided on taking her to LMU so that she can see where Mommy and Daddy got married.  She was great throughout the whole mass and either slept or ate in Lucas' arms.  One thing … [Read more...]

To celebrate the Fourth of July weekend we all jumped in the car and went down to Solana Beach to visit Lucas' parents, Uncle Dan, Aunt Karen, Bailey, Jocelyn, Aidan and Julian.  We had a great time making tacos, cooking smores and going to the beach.  We even got to dip Ke'alohi's toes in the Pacific Ocean for the first time.  Even though the beaches up here are nothing like the ones back home in Hawaii (Yes, I know I'm spoiled … [Read more...]

It's official, she is growing way too fast.  As of today, she can hold up her head all by herself when we are carrying her.  She loves looking over our shoulders to see and explore her surroundings.  It is her first step towards becoming a little girl. I am overjoyed with happiness and excitement to see my daughter achieve these milestones little by little! … [Read more...]
