Kenji made his way into the world on November 5, at 3:34 p.m. He weighed in at 7 lbs., 4 oz., and measured 20.5 inches. As you can see, he bore a striking resemblance to his older brother right out of the womb.
The delivery went well, and much more quickly this time around. We checked in Friday morning, and Thu gave birth about five hours later, after 18 minutes of masterful pushing.
Auntie Uyen made it in time to see Kenji born!
Kenji's first bath, which this time wasn't given immediately because the nurse said it allows the mother to smell the baby first when she holds him, as opposed to the shampoo fragrance after a bath.
Kenji got some visitors on his second day, including Julia, Sam, and Kim, and ...
... his big brother, Tai!
Nguyen drove up from San Jose to pay a visit as well. All that practice with Liam is paying off. He's quite good with babies.
Time for Kenji to come home and be with Tai, who spent a couple fun nights with Auntie Uyen while we were away.
Cousin Ethan and family came over to see Kenji too.... One more month for Lan.
Tai is curious about and intrigued by his new baby brother.
And he cares for him too. He doesn't like to see him cry.
We'll have to be sure to keep giving Tai lots of attention, though.
Brothers!

We LOVE how happy Tai looks with his little brother!!! Mia kept on asking when her turn is coming after seeing their happy pictures. Hope Kenji is sleeping well at night!
