It's been a year in the making...."Eat Xocai Baby" is the long awaited music video Munro and I made about our Rockin Healthy Chocolate Business. Now you can get a better idea about what it is Munro actually does for a living. And hey...if anything, this is good for a laugh. Starring our family and Brooklyn, the Xocai Baby.

Two Peas
Mason and Maile have become inseperable lately. They constantly declare they are "best friends" and when Mason's at school, Maile's constant question is "When are we gonna get Mason?" It's gotten to the point that when Mason isn't around, Maile is completely inhibited. She's afraid to play with other kids and cries when she's in public situations. Having Mason with her is like a security blanket and she can do anything and be completely herself if he's around. It's totally cute on one hand, but worries me a bit too. Mason is his same outgoing self no matter what. But he definitely has Maile under his wing and takes extra special care of her especially in public and around other kids. I'm glad my kids like each other so much. It really is a blessing. They're both excited about the new baby. But I am interested to see if 3 will be a crowd.

Real Men do the Haka
Munro and I dated and were engaged for a total of 4 months in Hawaii before we flew home during Christmas break to meet each other's families and get married. It was pretty crazy meeting your new family just before joining them. But I totally lucked out in the awesome in-law department. I really didn't know any of them very well, but one of my fondest memories of my new brothers (keep in mind Munro has 7 brothers) was when they all ripped off their shirts and performed the Haka at our reception. They had a crash course lesson from my little brother Jacob before they performed. It brought tears to my eyes when I saw this haole rendition but I felt loved and accepted into my new family. How lucky am I to have 2 Amazing families!
