Last Week

Laakolu is here! We were out at Kozmic Cones when it happened. Onaona, Kawehena and I had been at the hospital all day and left for a short lunch break, since it didn't look like the labor was going anywhere for a while. We returned to find out the baby had been born while we were gone. My double burger was so-so.

The baby arrived with gusto. After building up the suspense for an extra couple days, he almost literally popped out in a "fastest ever" 10-minute birth. He immediately opened his eyes, looked around, and made plans with his father to go cliff-diving next weekend.

Also this week:
-Onaona and I had to entertain a 9-year old and a 5-year old for a large chunk of a five-day period. It was exhausting. We are no longer planning to have kids. We are going to have cats instead.
-We had a big family dinner celebrating Onaona's Mom's birthday. There was ten pounds of meatloaf.
-I turned 29 on the same day my grandparents celebrated their 68th anniversary. Grandpa said, "Oh. It's been a long time."
