This day... will forever be important to me.

7:45am- "Del I'm going to the doc's now, I'll be back in an hour"... I looked up and knodded my head and went back to sleep, or atleast tried. I pretty much knew my butt had to be up because I was expecting someone to come help us out at around 8:30. Of course she's lost so I have to drive down the street to meet her to drive her back to the house... I was up.

Explained what needed to be done, how it needs to be done and where everything she needed could be found. I grabbed Pudge put him in the room and attempted to fall back asleep. NOTHING... I looked at the clock and it said 9:30. Sent my sister a text asking where she was because it was well over an hour since she left for her appointment. Blaring in my ear "We dont have to worry about no Groc--" (anthony hamilton's COOL)...  I cut off the ring before it can continue... "Where are you sister?"
"Ummmm I am going to have him today, he's coming"
"WHAT? OMG OK OKWHAT?"
"I will be home in a little bit and then I have to go to the hospital with in the hour because I'm 5cm dialated"
"I'll come get you"
"No I'm fine I will see you in a little bit."

My heart started to beat fast and I was sooooooooooooo excited! I wanted to scream and let everyone know that the day was here and my nephew was going to be born! I think I was more excited then my sister was! The rain was crazy the week before up until the day. It rained all morning and for some odd reason it started to clear. I was excited and happy that the day was finally hear, texting my parents, friends, and family. She wasn't due for another 2 weeks and 2days. He was EARLY! We had not gotten everything ready and we had about 58 minutes to get it all done. Leilani and I had so many errands to run but we had run out of time and I was fine with it.

Owen came home and packed up their bags and took off to La Jolla. I stayed back to wash their clothes, yes because that was one of our many errands that day. I finished up and left to pick up my cousin and mom. We arrived at the hospital abour 230-3pm and got to see her. Leilani said "Oh Del let the others come in so they can say hi because you're going to be here during the delivery"... Roger that... went and sat my nervous, excited behind in the waiting room. It felt like 20 minutes but it was already 5:30pm when Owen comes out- "She has to have a C-section so she will be going to the operating room "... This made me so mad! I wanted to be there to help her push but it just wasn't God's will to have him naturally. His little heart beat was getting slower and he was tired of pushing, so medical attention was called and the best next thing was to be done.

I sat in the waiting room, eating, stuffing my face so nervous for my sister. This was something we DIDN'T want but as long as he was delivered with the least complications we were going to take it. Quick prayer and she was gone to the operating room.

At about 6:27pm they rolled him out into the hallway. I quickly pulled out the phone and started snapping away!! LOL Thank goodness for the Blackberry because it captured his first appearance to the family...

Here is the "welcome to the family" photo. He was so beautiful. He was strong. He was so light. But most of all he was well and healthy! He was my sunshine in this awful world we live in. Nothing mattered anymore. He was my brother's child but my heart. He was my brother (the first born) & sister (the first born)'s ... first born. Sauia & Sally AhMu's first grandchild. Bubba, A'i & myself... our first nephew. He's special and he doesn't even know it. He was perfect all wrapped up in that little swaddle blanket and he was alert and ready and willing to meet all of us. I was in awwww of him and was so happy he was here.



Sleepy time w/ mommy!



It has been a pretty peaceful 3 weeks since he's been home and today makes his 3 week mark. He is a strong little man and squeals and cries when he's 1) hungry 2) has a dirty diaper or 3) wants to be held. All three valid reasons to cry right? I dont know about #3 but we're working on that! Here he is 20 days old (yesterday). It's a little dark but this is my handsome love bug and his mommy.

Like I said... December 22, 2010 will be a date forever important to me. I'm glad that on 11/3/2003 Leilani & Owen started dating, 4/10/10 they married, and then 12/22/10 they had their first born. I love my nephew and I will be the crazy aunty that runs around w/ her finger on the camera button on my phone and my camera ready and willing to take pictures of every movement, every cute facial expression, every angle, EVERY DAY! I will capture your life Nainoa on a little camera each and every day, unless aunty's not here. Then mommy has to! :) 

I love my lil prince charming, my handsome, my lovey... my favorite <3 bugg!! 



Happy 3weeks <3Bugg

Aunty <3s you!!!
