Kirin's Hospital Stay and Homecoming

Kirin "Speedy Delivery" Goda was born on August 21, 10 days ahead of schedule.  Once he decided he was ready for the world, he wasted no time, arriving only 2 hours after mom and dad arrived at the hospital.

Celebrating the Big 3.0 and Interview

We celebrated Milan's 3rd birthday at a park with many friends and family

 Milan had a great time with the balloon artist who made him a special hat

along with an airplane and a monkey on a palm tree.

He finally blew the candles himself this year though also managed to get his spit on a special corner of the cake

We also commemorated Milan's birthday by doing a birthday interview with him.  We can't attest to the accuracy of any of his statements (especially the part about broccoli and carrots) but I think it captures some of his personality.

Milan at 3 Years (and an announcement)

Milan is 3 years old today!  He got a special birthday boy t-shirt and crown and partied the day away.

First, we took some pictures with Brownie.  Milan is now growing off the blanket!  He's a lot bigger now than he was at 3 days and 3 months. 

Next we celebrated Milan's birthday with some ice cream at daycare with all his friends.

The birthday celebrations continue over the weekend!

We also will be discontinuing Milan's marvelous monthly updates.  However, you'll still get to hear about Milan through monthly updates of his baby brother, due to arrive in late August!  Look out for a site rebranding and more marvelous moments soon!
