Good morning son!  Today is Daddy's birthday so Mommy took him for a special birthday brunch!  We had a most delicious short ribs loco moco with fried rice at Moena Cafe and it was amazing!

Then we stopped at a popular cupcake shoppe in Aina Haina and cheersed to his birthday!  We also got a box of these yummies for your Doctors and Nurses too!

And then the best part... we came to spend the day with you!

Happy Boy's Day!  Graham said to tell you Happy Boy's Day Baby Brother!  Here he is with his special koinobori from Aunty Helene and Aunty Cami!

The nurses got you a koinobori too!

We came in and your nurse and NP K asked of we noticed anything different and we did!  You were off your CPAP!  They said we'll try this out slowly and perhaps you don't need it anymore.  When nurse Laura did a shift change, she gave Nurse Shari the info that you are off and she rushed in here and did a happy dance with Mommy!  We celebrate everything here at the NICU - every line or tube you no longer need, every time you gain an ounce, every breath you take on your own!

Later in the evening, we took Daddy to a nice birthday dinner at Sarrento's at the top of the Ilikai Hotel in Waikiki!  There were beautiful views of the city and the city lights!

We sure had a busy day celebrating Daddy, celebrating little boys, and celebrating you!  We love you Puppy!  XOXO!
