I'm going to keep the blog kind of short tonight, I'm pretty tired. Just because we're running all over-the-place doesn't mean we can forget about our other children. Nainoa was kind enough to remind me of that last night when he got up about six...

It's officially been two weeks since we had Makoa and what and improvement we've seen in that time. Tomorrow is his actual due-date, and he's looking more put-together everyday. Every time we hold him he's getting stronger, feeding longer, and showing us his determination. We...
