Just more proof that big things come in small packages.

Just wanted to see if I can do it… not perfect, but cute.

That’s right! She’s finally here. Born about a week ago, on the day of my mom’s birthday. Given that I was born on my grandma’s birthday as well, I say we’re starting a new tradition! She was born 6 pounds, 15 ounces, and 20 inches long. A tiny little thing!

Life, it seems, is all about little girls these days. Perhaps it is because we’re expecting one of our own to join the clan and rock this house in all of her pink glory. Pink shirts, pink sheets, pink canopy panels… I believe less than a year ago we were convinced we didn’t like pink [...]

In the morning of our second day on Oahu, we drove ourselves to a botanical garden. About 15 minutes away from the busy Honolulu, this [...]

Went for our second appointment today, and to our surprise (a pleasant one at that!) the Doc brought in the ultrasound machine to show us our baby! The baby was moving around in there!
