Designer fashions by Auntie Imani!

We felt it necessary to show off Ra's one of a kind wardrobe...compliments of his proud auntie. RaKhem has been sporting the latest in Onesie fashions since he made his arrival 3 months ago.



This one is our favorite. RaKhem is wearing Rakim. You gotta love it!!!!



This next one is paying homage to Malcolm X. Nobody can say that they have seen a baby rockin' the Malcolm X Onesie. This is definitely Des' second favorite.



The "Black Power Fist". Classic. Lime green is not a color that everyone can sport...but Ra wears it well.



The afro pic. We are patiently waiting for the day when Ra's silky fine curls will be replaced with hair that can actually accomodate an afro pic.


This one actually says it best. RaKhem has definitely been kissed by the sun...our little chocolate chip!

That is all the fashions we have for now, but we will return with Fall/Winter fashions for 2005.

Peace & Luv

Welcome, Fam & Friends

Hey Everyone,
This is the first entry into the world that is RaKhem. We really wanted to create this blog so that family & friends can check in and keep abreast of what is happening in the world of RaKhem. Since we live far from most of our family we wanted to make sure that everyone gets a chance to watch him grow up.
Well, just so everybody is on the same page, Mr. RaKhem Ajani was born on July 8, 2005 @ 6:16am. He was 7lbs. 6oz and was 18 3/4 inches long.
RaKhem has come a long way since July 8th. Now he weighs about 15lbs and is around 25 inches long (we will find out his exact measurements at his next well-baby appointment next month). He has been smiling (eventually we will get a picture of him doing it). Everytime he sees the camera, the smile disappears into thin air. In addition to his smiling, he has also started to voice his opinions quite loudly. Hopefully you all will get the opportunity to experience it in the near future. He enjoys standing on people's laps and has become quite the drooler. But he is still as handsome as ever!
More later!
Love y'all!!
