Malia Nicole Roberts



Miss Malia was born on December 7, 2010 at 6:04 pm. She weighed 7 lbs 1 oz and was 19.5 inches long. She has a head full of dark brown hair, grey eyes, and goes back and forth between looking like each of her brothers with each passing moment.


She was a super easy delivery. I was induced starting at 9am. I hit 10 centimeters around 5:30 and had her out in 5 contractions.


She passed all of her tests with flying colors and our first 24 hours passed with visits from friends and family and a lot of poking a prodding from nurses in the middle of the night--- why they have to draw blood at 3:30 in the morning is beyond me!!!


The doctors let us come home a day early-- since we are old pros in the baby department!!!

So we loaded her up and took her home.


Daddy is amazed at how little she is. He is already playing his guitar for her and singing her songs. He doesn't stand a chance against her.


Andrew was the one I was really worried about. Kai is a great big brother. He is patient and kind and sweet. Andrew, on the other hand, is a total momma boys and is very headstrong. He has not warmed up to her completely, but I think he will eventually love his little "Mia"


She is already completely spoiled, not wanting to stay in her crib and insisting on being held 24 hours a day and is already exhibiting a pretty silly personality.


I think she is going to fit in with our crew just fine!!!

We love you Malia!
