Happy News!

Seriously?!  It's been OVER A YEAR since our last blog update?!?!  That's messed up!  I guess nothing has been that exciting or "blog-worthy" maybe?  Oh goodness. I need to get on the ball.

I suppose I should make this a really good come-back post then, right?!  Well... you're in luck!  Because....


David and I are EXCITED to announce that we are expecting our second baby March 20th! 

Ultrasound picture, 12 weeks

Woohoo! :) That makes me a little over 12 weeks along.  I'm not really craving anything in particular yet, except for Hawaiian food (specifically laulau, lomi salmon, & poke) and sushi (We did go to Sushi Ya a few weekends ago, and best believe I ate any sushi that had crab and shrimp!)... Just wish I could eat the fish RAW, so I could satisfy my lomi salmon and poke cravings!  But it's all good... Baby is worth it. :)  I've been feeling ridiculously more sick this pregnancy than with my last, to the point where I've had to cancel hula a few times because of it.  It's been a little better this past week, and I'm really hoping I don't have to deal with morning sickness too much the next 6 months!  I must say, I'm loving the pills from my doctor for the nausea, though! They work like magic! haha!

Keaka has been amazing, and very understanding so far.  She is so excited and already protective of "her baby," making sure everyone steers clear of Mommy's stomach!  With the exception of slipping once in Nursery a few Sundays ago and blurting out "My mommy's having a baby!" (hahahah!!), she has done a fantastic job at keeping the baby a secret for the past few months. She can't wait to be a big sister!

I can't begin to describe how excited I am for this baby to arrive-- David and I cannot wait!  I'm keeping my fingers crossed that with all the birthdays and holidays coming up (starting in October), this pregnancy should fly by.  Let's just hope it really goes that way, haha!
