all things d@vidb
Hana is now at home. We somehow managed to transport her from the hospital to our home without breaking her.
Noa is still at daycare, but he is in for a surprise when he gets home
By the way, you may have noticed a trend: Hana sleeps all the time. Unlike Noa who never slept. So far, so good.
(Thanks for the clothes Mom!)
Because Noa is a baby model!
That’s right, the latest edition of Baby-mo, Noa is pimping his gear from some company called X-girl.
No he did not get any real money for it. No he did not get the clothes. And no he didn’t get the other baby girl’s phone number. He did get his name spelled wrong though…
nice!
She sleeps a lot! I have only seen her eyes once, and havent got a picture yet. Im working on it!
Just in case you need another picture of Hana
She is out of her box!
Hana May Bennett was born a few minutes ago at 2:16pm. She weighs 3600grams (8 pounds) and she is a she!
Because she is 3weeks early, she will spend the next 24hrs under observation.
Kiko is healthy and very happy.
love,
david, kiko, noa, and hana
Happy Birthday to David and … Hana!
Hana May Bennett was born just a few minutes ago. Pictures to come!
In Japanese, her name will be written like this: 英
You can learn more about the character here.
Amongst other things it means: “petal” “flower” “brave” and is used in the words “England, English”.
The pronunciation “hana” in Japanese means flower.
Details and pictures to follow! Noa is now a big brother!
Welcome back to davidandkiko.com!
I must apologize for the long delay in updating the website. We are now back, so expect regular updates. A good place to start is our new baby being born tomorrow. As Noa would say, “nice!”.
Let me fill you in on what we have been up to.
Noa is getting bigger, running around a lot, speaking tons in Japanese, doing an excellent job of faking English. He is a happy, well adjusted boy who watched Dora the Explorer, goes to Day care, and spends a lot of time with his Mom and jumping.
He keeps us busy.
I am still working, going to school, teaching and taking care of Noa. Suffice it to say, there is a lot on my plate. That being said, I am enjoying each and everyone of those jobs… (just maybe not all at the same time.)
I suspect that my life is skewed more towards work, and less towards school, but with a family of 3 4, that is to be expected. I love school, I love my job… so its a toss up.
And by friends keeping me busy, I mean me not contacting my friends enough. If you are here, you are loved and you are important to us. We wish we could see you more often, talk on the phone more often, and generally be around you more often.
In the meantime, please settle for:
It’s my birthday. Yeah! It’s the new baby’s birthday. Yeah! It’s Noa’s birthday on the 16th. Yeah! It’s Kiko’s birthday on December 18th. Yeah!
And in a few hours expect to see pictures.
We wish you were all here and you are all in our thoughts.
Love, david & kiko & noa & baby awesome v2.0
