...tHe KiDs...

hmmmmmm, ok where to start!! our oldest child is 9yrs old...gonna be 10 this year!! she was actually born in Kahuku, HI on August 31, 2000. I actually had her before I met my eternal companion. I named her Kacey Ologa AwakeaU'iO-Pi'ilani Fonoimoana. She weighed 8lbs 2oz, and was 21 1/2" long with a conehead. She was such a GOOD baby, everybody loved her! Now she is about to turn 10, and I can't believe how fast time has gone by. My lil' baby is a BIG GIRL now....she is such a GREAT BIG HELP to me with her younger siblings, and for that I AM SO GRATEFUL!! I LOVE YOU SWEETHEART!!

**our 2nd child, was born in Provo, UT!! This one was kind of an unexpected surprise to us...cause when I told my husband that I was pregnant, his reaction was more like an ANGRY, in SHOCK, WHAT AM I GOING TO DO kinda reaction..LOL!! But when it actually sank in that we were having another baby, he was HAPPY & EXCITED. Being pregnant the 2nd time around, I thought it would be a breeze for me, cause with my first, I had the morning(more like ALL DAY LONG) sickness really bad!! I lost alot of weight in the beginning, couldn't hold ANYTHING down. But as soon as that sickness went away in the 3rd trimester, I was eating EVERYTHING & ANYTHING I could get my hands on pretty much, hahaha!! I gained a whopping 70+ pounds...WHOA!! Buuuuuut, my 2nd pregnancy was actually WORSE than the 1st. I was in & out of the hospital, dehydrated all the time, they had to put me on an IV more than twice...to the point where I had to go do same-day surgery to get a PIC line put into my arm so they wouldn't have to keep poking my veins in my hand for the IV!! But that didn't last long cause my arm was starting to swell, and they realized that it was getting infected. So they took the PIC line out, and I had to just stick it out the rest of the pregnancy. I gave birth to our 2nd baby girl on November 11, 2006(Veteran's Day)...she weighed the same as I did when I was born...7 lbs 13oz, and she was 19 1/2" long. We named her Liliani(after my mother-in-law) Teuila(my Samoan middle name) Moe. It was funny because when we went to do the ultrasound to find out what we were having, the doc told us it was a GIRL...my husband was NOT HAPPY AT ALL!! He was DEAD-SET on having a SON...so in the room, he got silent when the doc said that!! bahahahahaha....but when i had her, she came out looking just like HER DADDY!!! LOL....and now, 3yrs later, she acts just like him too!! But she is the LIFE of our LIL' FAMILY, I wouldn't have it any other way!!!

**Last, but not least, our 3rd child was born in Independence, MO!!! (yup, I had all 3 kids in 3 different states) LOL...if there is a #4, I guess we'll have to move so I can keep up the tradition!! bahahahahahaha, YAH RIGHT!! anyways, this pregnancy was actually pretty SMOOTH compared to the other 2...i still threw up & what not, but it was NOTHING like before!! the only difference was, this was the pregnancy that i got THE BIGGEST!! at our 20week check up we did the ultrasound...and the doc asked if we wanted to know what it was, we said YES!! as soon as she slid the camera thing between the baby's legs, we already knew it was a BOY because we could see his FAMILY JEWELS already....his dad's first comment was, WOW, MY SON HAS SOME BIG BALLS, hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!! Anyways, my due date this time was May 31, 2009...but I had him exactly 2 weeks early! My water broke on May 16, while I was at home watching TV, so we went in to the hospital at about 11:30pm, but I didn't have him until 11:25am the next morning because he just WOULD NOT drop lower!! He weighed in at a WHOPPING 9lbs 8oz, and was 22" long...my BIGGEST BABY yet!! But he is such a MELLOW baby, I LOVE IT!!!

Each one of my kids have their very own personality, and they are all different in their own ways!!! But I wouldn't trade them for ANYTHING in the world!! I love you my children!!!
