About Our Beginnings...

Hiro was born January 17th at 12:07 am at Kaiser hospital, 48 hours after the water broke. It was a natural birth, and a very positive experience. Judah was born January 1, 2010 at 1:08 pm 7 hours after the water broke. Judah was delivered at Andaluz Waterbirth center, which was a completely magical experience that we highly recommend to anyone having a normal healthy pregnancy. Malakai was born on December 23, 2011 after three days of inactive labor labor and three hours of active labor (three hours after the water broke). Kai was born at Andaluz as well, this time in "Sienna" the red room. It was a relaxing and delightful way to spend our first Christmas with Malakai.

Judah...Almost here!

It is December and we are ready for Judah to make his grand entrance!
A lot is different about this pregnancy. Erin feels pretty good, about the same as with Hiro. The biggest difference is that we chose to see a group of midwives outside of the hospital system. We will be delivering at a birthing center in Portland called Andaluz. We have been very impressed with the care and think the attention we received is superior to what we experienced with Hiro.
Erin has been working out (prenatal deep-water aerobics) throughout her pregnancy, and her nutrition under the guidance of her midwives has been better -more informed.
We are excited to have the opportunity to deliver Judah in water. We hope to document the whole thing and post discrete pictures when we can!
Right now we are just counting down the days until his arrival!
