Motherhood is... peaceful I bet you didn't see that one coming! Hahaha. We have had our ups and downs these past few weeks with sleeping but then a miracle happened Wednesday night. Ke'alohi went to sleep without any fuss around 8 pm with Lucas and then slept until 7:20 am when we had to wake her up to get ready for daycare! She is so peaceful and beautiful when she sleeps, Lucas and I just stared at her for a good few minutes. It … [Read more...]
Tonight was especially exciting because one of my friends, Autumn, came over for a much anticipated visit. We were going to see Auntie Autumn last month, but then she got sick so we waited until she was better so she could really have fun. In order to keep up with Ke'alohi these days, you need to be well-hydrated and in shape. Hahaha. It was so much fun having her over to catch up on what's new and to relive the glory days in Theta and … [Read more...]
Remember how I said that we do some crazy things to get a good photo? Well I should have also said that we also do crazy things to get a funny photo. After I took all the diapers out of the box we just bought, Ke'alohi seemed pretty intrigued by it and started playing with the open flaps and around the box. Little did she know that it's actually more fun playing in the box. I was able to snap a few quick photos before she got over it and … [Read more...]
With my birthday on Friday and Lucas' dad's birthday coming up on Monday, the whole family got together for a dinner at The Boiling Crab. This restaurant was pretty cool because they serve everything to you on tables, covered in plastic wrap and all the food is put in bags with the seasonings that you choose. There were so many different seafood options to choose from that it took me a good while to make my selection. I had the snow crab … [Read more...]
Yesterday I had a great time celebrating my birthday at work and at home with Lucas and Ke'alohi. I was surprised with chocolate covered strawberries at work from my best friend Nalani back home and Lucas brought me a balloon and some chocolate to my office. Aren' t they the best? After I picked up Ke'alohi, Lucas took us to Kabuki for sushi. I was slightly bummed when I found out that my birthday was on a Friday this year because then I … [Read more...]
Motherhood is... exhausting With Ke'alohi having an ear infection and perforated eardrum, sleeping has been rough for me due to my "mommy guilt." She is doing better now and is pretty much back to herself playing and screaming up a storm. I took this picture Sunday while we were shoe shopping. She has never laid her head down on the ground like this and I just couldn't help thinking how sweet and peaceful she looked. If you want to see … [Read more...]
Today is a pretty awesome day. Not only is it the birthday of Daniel Craig, Jon Bon Jovi, Reggie Bush, Karen Carpenter and Dr. Suess, but it is my mom and I's birthday! I never really understood until after I had Ke'alohi just how special it is for my mom and I to share the same birthday. I mean, if you think about it, you never really know when you are going to conceive your baby and when you go into labor is a total mystery. For my mom … [Read more...]
