Here he is! Meet Tevi.

Our baby boy was born on Monday, August 4, 2008 at 1:33 P.M. in Tooele, Utah. He weighed in at 8 lbs. 12 oz. and was 22 inches long. He has a full head of black hair, big hands and feet, and a healthy appetite. We think we'll keep him.

His name is Tevita Kolomaile Peauma'a Funaki...his first name is after his Grandpa, Aki's dad. We've started calling him "Tevi" (rhymes with Chevy...not Levi). I've called him Ame more times than I can count. :)

My mom and dad have been here all week, and I'm so, so grateful for their help with the kids, house, cooking, cleaning, baby, etc. Seriously, my mother has supplied me (and my sweet tooth) with constant nourishment. And my dad even painted the baby's room. I don't want them to leave!

After coming home from the hospital, we've had several family and friends come to visit and take a peek at the little guy (some of these pics are from them). These are for Grandma and Grandpa Funaki in New Guinea.

[My brain isn't fully functional right now...so if I've left anything out that you want to know, just ask.]

I'm still alive...and still pregnant

But I won't be after tomorrow! Woo hoo! I go in at 6 am tomorrow to be induced. I'll finally get to meet the little fella who's been baking since November. Does anyone know if a Tongan baby name book exists? Because I could really use one.

Stay tuned for all the details you may--or may not--want to know.

In the meantime, here are a few photos from our too-many-relatives-to-process, double-family-reunion, very-uncomfortable-road-trip to Arizona last week. I helped plan the Udall reunion with my cousin Mindy--don't know what I was smoking when I volunteered for it. But my super-duper family came through in the end, and I am so grateful for all the help they gave to make the party a success. I have the best brothers, sisters, and parents...at least that's how I feel today. :)

We met in Mesa for Grandma Udall's 90th birthday celebration. She has about 40 grandchildren and 100+ great-grandchildren. It was pure chaos, but we enjoyed it.

Here's our tribe, minus Brigham, who's in Iraq. Aki, as usual, looks thrilled to be a Udall.

Grandma with most of her grandchildrenBoomer and Tennille were in charge of the pancake breakfast (and a whole bunch of other stuff)--total life savers!

Pool party! Aki takes on the nephews. (How anyone lives in Mesa without a pool is beyond me.)

Next we went up to a lodge in Greer in Arizona's White Mountains for a Larson Family Reunion (my mom's side). It was so nice: much cooler weather, rooms and food totally provided for, not as many people, and best of all--I wasn't responsible for a thing!

We enjoyed karaoke performances (Boomer serenaded Grandma Mimi with "My Girl") and presentedMimi with 86 birthday cards ranging from sappy to risqué. The next night, my mom and her sisters performed with their guitars, and we all saw a side of Risa we didn't know existed. :)

We spent a couple days in St. Johns at my parents house, and went to Eager for a day to spend time with my oldest brother Travis's family in their new home. It was really great to see all my family, and they all took good care of me. I was very lazy the whole time I was there--did nothing but sleep and eat!
