Our new little addition...

Well, it finally happened. About 3 days past her original due date, Kinsey Hope Tran Makan has come into our world. Apparently, a number of different weather changes (change in barometric pressure) and moon phases (full moons) can trigger labor in women. If you don't believe it, statistically, this happens to be some of the busiest times for women's hospitals. In our case, Woman's Hospital, was filled to capacity for days.

Anyway, Kinsey was born on September 22, 2009, at 3:57 pm, weighing in at 7 lbs 15 oz, and measuring in at 22 inches. Big brother Gage was especially happy and could not wait to hold Kinsey. Woman's also has a special sibling's cake which was presented to him as the older brother. To add to his special day, he also received a really cool gift from her as well.

Exciting Times

We're are about 10 days, give or take, from another little addition to the family. As we gear up this weekend for Kinsey, family will be coming into town. Both Anand and Aarti are coming to the US and this will be the first I've seen the both of them since 1981.

Xuan's just about done and is pretty much ready to pop, but we both have some last minute work committments that need to be completed before Kinsey arrives. If all goes well, we would like to have a 9/9/09 birthday. Let's see what happens.

In the meantime, big brother Gage says "Hi" to the world. Oh, and Hook'em Horns for the start of 2009 football season.
