Can you guess which is Mailes and which is dads?

Can you guess which is Maile's and which is dad's?

I can’t believe Maile is already 5 days old! Click the image above for slide show of her first five days. (Or click here).

NOTE: There are captions with the pictures. If you can’t see them, click Options in the upper right and make sure “Always Show Title and Description” is checked.

Maile accomplished A LOT over the past 5 days – some highlights:

  • Said good bye to all the great people at CPMC and headed home!
  • (Maile Trivia: first song that played on the radio in the car ride home? Born in the U.S.A. by Bruce Springsteen! Truth.)
  • Spent some quality time with my Grandma Gail, Grandma Jill and Grandpa Mike – Maile and her grandparents hit it off perfectly – a lot of love in the air!
  • “Met” Grandpa Cal and Auntie Elyssa through the wonders of video chat – Maile can’t wait to meet them in person soon!
  • Polished off about 50 diapers (conservative estimate)
  • In true Koidin fashion, made an early adventure to the doctor’s office (a day before my scheduled appointment) because mom and dad were worried about some “plumbing” issues. After some deft work with a thermometer (use your imagination), all is well and Maile was a very happy camper!
  • Went for her first walk on the streets of San Francisco – Maile thought the city had potential, she’s happy to be here.
  • Passed her first (official) doctor’s appointment with flying colors!
  • Met some new friends – and was an all around pleasure with company (except when Megan and Josh came by who are expecting a friend for Maile shortly – to make sure they knew what they were getting into, Maile melted down a bit…)

It’s been a busy few days, but we’ve had plenty of family quality time too. Everyone is doing really well – mom and dad are tired, but absolutely having a blast figuring things out with their new baby girl!

Grandma Jill and Grandpa Mike pretty much think Maile is the best thing ever … and very advanced for her age. At the rate they are going, I don’t think they’ll be surprised if Maile is driving the car by the time they come back in August!
