WHY so serious?

Emi calls any kind of lipstick/lip gloss "lips" and she LOVES to play with mommy's "lips." She won't let me help her and she insists on putting it on herself, hence the joker look. We'll work on that when she is older, but for now she can humor me a bit!

Look what we have!

My cherry tomatoes finally ripened, which I think is so late in the season. Emi had a grand old time picking them. They aren't as sweet as I would like them, but maybe it's because they are the first ones to come in. Here Emi proudly displays what she gathered!

A few pictures to share!

Baby pictures

I needed to get some pictures of him before he got to be too old. So here is one that I did today. I wanted to get some of him sleeping, but he was awake for the whole time so I think I will try tomorrow. Anyways, this is what Kenji looks like one week later! He is pretty much a great baby because all he does is eat, sleep and poop. The hard part is trying to take care of him at night and being too tired to keep Emi entertained in the day. She doesn't take naps during the day so it is hard for me to catch up on any sleep. Well, we will see how this week goes. Maybe Kenji will be able to sleep for longer periods of time.

Kenji Kelii Wunder

The night before the induction. Ever since we talked to Emi about having a baby brother she has started to regress back to her baby ways. For a day she insisted that she needed to drink from a bottle and it was hard to get her out of the baby carrier.





Right before they started me.



just waiting.



5 and 1/2 hours later baby kenji was born at 7lbs adn 19 1/2 inches.

Little Kenji is here!

We would like to welcome our newest addition to the family Kenji Kelii Wunder! He arrived Aug. 7, 2008 at about 2:45 pm. This time the labor and delivery went so much faster than Emi's. We started around 9:00 am and 5 hours later I pushed about three times and his head was out! If only first time pregnancies were that easy! Well, he is a delight to have at home and we are so excited to see him grow within these next few days. I will post some pictures a little bit later, but for now here are the stats.

weight: 7 lb
height: 19 1/2 inches
born: 2:32 August 7, 2008
