Your Kids Grow up fast

Not to sound cliche or like a 60 year old Dad, but as I've been watching Kai through these last 2 weeks, he has already changed dramatically.

First off he has grown about an inch or so already, and gained some more baby fat. He is definitely a strong baby, seeing as how he can pick his head up and move it around, especially when he is looking for some food. I don't know if we are not feeding him enough, or he is just a really big baby, but he sure likes to eat. I think its probably the latter of the two.

Aya has been doing a lot of feeding, and now we are supplementing. No not GNC weight gainer, just using some baby milk mix, to add to a bottle here and there when Kai doesn't seem to be full.

The other day I laid him down on his belly for some "tummy time." This action helps him strengthen up his neck muscles and relieves some of the stress on his head; but yeah, it was "tummy time" for baby Kai, and already at not even two weeks of age, this little guy (will have to stop saying little soon) picked his head up off the floor and switched it from facing right, to facing left. I was dumbfounded. I guess it was like watching one of the many new milestones, Kai will be performing in the coming months.

More Cute Baby Pictures

I was able to find a couple minutes to get these pictures up. I know I promised video and I will get to that soon; but in the mean time, to keep you all informed, here is a recent baby bathing.

Look how cute he is all wrapped up and ready to go. I do think directly after these pictures though, there was a golden shower or two. I am now a seasoned veteran in that area.

More of Kai

Sorry I haven't gotten to update in a while; things have been rather busy, as you might imagine. Kai has been getting bigger and enjoying his first days this past week, and I have managed to get some pictures of him in action. Here he is doing what he does best: laying around.


This is the big guy with his burping towel, definitely don't want to lose that.


Just so you all can get some prospective on how big he is.


I think he might be a baller.




This baby is cute, no doubt about it. I do think he is going to take after his dad. He is starting to get some more defined facial features, including his nose and eyes; but the real test will have to be his smile.


Kai has been a very good baby so far. Immediately after eating, he is dreaming. This is makes our lives a lot easier for sure. Last night Kai spent his first night in our room, at the hospital, and he only woke up once, because he was hungry. After that it was all ZZs. Aya and I thanked our lucky stars, once again.

My Tube

My website on you tube is now in development. This is all part of getting all my websites connected and running smoothly.

In other news, Kai is no where to be found. Aya is about the size of a large mini-van, and desperately wants to be a full-on mother. We keep pushing our next doctor appointment back in an effort save some cash and time. We figure why go to the doctor today, wh we are going to be there tomorrow for the real deal.

I hope all is well out there in cyber-space, and everyone is in good health.

I can't tell you all how nerve racking it is, wait for your child (all you moms and dads know how I feel). There is nothing to do but wait it out, and we all hope it is soon.

Taker Easy.

Nov. 13th* (Japan)

So Aya's due date has come and gone, and so has my prediction. It is now up to Kai to decide when he is going to come; Aya thinks it is going to be this Wednesday, and I hope she is right. We really want the birth to be this week, but we just have to wait and see. One thing is for sure, it is going to be very soon.

So for now, just wish Aya luck as she gets ready to do this. I will keep you all up to date as best I can.

Finding ways to past the time

AS you can see below, there are lots of posts that really have nothing to do with Kai.  

That is because WE ARE REALLY ANXIOUS, so I am just finding things of interest to share here, and adding to the blog, while we sit and wait, and wait and wait, for something to happen.

We hope something happenes soon, otherwise the blog might end up being about someone else's baby soon.

False Alarm

So yesterday at 4pm JST, we had a little scare.

We thought that maybe Aya was going into labor; it turns out that we were mistaken, and when we got to the hospital they said, we probably still have at least a week left.

Aya was sikeddd to hear that, SOOOOO pumped!

Needless to say, Aya is ready to get Kai out and into the world, but I am still really impressed with her, and how well she is handeling everything.

Today we decided to take advantage of our (very possibly) last weekend without a baby, and go to the aquarium. That was a good time; got to see the dolphins fly. Then we went to our favorite cheap sushi restaurant, Sushiro, just to get the full ocean experince.

The little sea inside her belly was makin waves all day.

Pictures coming soon.
