Isaia Hawika Pilimai





Isaia Hawika Pilimai graced our family on May 24, 2011 @ 8:26am. He arrived weighing 8lbs and was 20 inches long, by far my biggest baby. Talae and Noa have been wonderful with their new brother and want to help and hold him all the time. Hawika means beloved and it couldn't suite him better because he is such a sweet spirit of our Heavenly Father. We are truly blessed to have him in our family.

So far this year


It is hard to start from scratch after not posting for a few years so I'll try and give a brief recap.

Ammon is still working for Camden as a Maintenance Technician going on 2 years now. He enjoys working with good people and I don't hear many complaints from him when he comes home! Currently his work is doing the biggest looser and he is in the lead with a total of 23 pounds lost. Go babe, go!! He really has been working hard running 2-3 times a week and trying to watch what he eats.

Hoku is carrying our third son soon to grace our presence in May. They say that three is the hardest so she is really nervous but excited for the challenge. She has been working at Gentle Dental for five years now from Tuesday to Friday and really enjoys her day off on Monday. Besides working, her life revolves around her boys. They enjoy trips to the YMCA pool together, library days, park days and just sitting down to a good book.

Talae is 4 years old and is in preschool two days a week. It amazes us how his mind is so much like a sponge. He told me that he wants to be an engineer when he grows up and make contraptions. His favorite toys are Thomas the train and Backugans, but his favorite things to do are play games on the Iphone and Wii. We enrolled him in his second season of soccer because he enjoyed it so much last year. Talae was hoping that he would be getting a baby sister soon and was sad when he found out it was going to be another brother. It didn't take him long to get over it though.

Noa is 2 going on 3 and is such a character. We have been trying to potty train him for some time now. One day he will be excited to go on the potty and the next have nothing to do with it. Since I've been pregnant, he has been my little shadow. I love his little dance moves and have to place a video clip in the near future. His favorite toys are super heroes. Noa wants to be just like his brother and I can't believe what natural talent he has when playing sports. We couldn't decide on a name for the new baby but when we asked Noa about it he decided for us- Isaia.
