Choco-Cherry Love

Although that happens to be Ricky's favorite DQ blizzard, it has also become Aolani's nickname. Seriously, I can't decide if she is the most beautiful baby there ever was or the happiest baby there ever was... wait. I don't have to decide. I'm the Mommy. She's BOTH!

Aolani is either smiling or laughing [almost] ALL THE TIME (around us anyways; she's a little shy around others)! Here's a glimpse of her this past weekend.

She sleeps, too ;)

"They" say that there are several ways to decrease the chance of a baby getting colic -- breastfeeding, wearing your baby via baby-carrier, co-sleeping, skin-on-skin contact -- and so we do/did them all. I guess something worked?!

Here is a good, short video of her laughing (for hearing not really seeing):

Aolani's Fourth Week

Her first "photo shoot"

I just LOVE this picture with cousin Kylie. They look different in every way. You can see how big Aolani's feet are in this shot.

Our Family (all here but not all awake)

Skin-on-skin contact with Daddy (funny how it looks, but he is NOT the parent doing the breastfeeding)
