Basketball



Andrew is now playing on his school basketball team. This is his first attempt at playing basketball on a team. He is doing O.k. He had his first game last week and played against 5th graders. Then on Saturday he had 2 more games. I missed the first game where he scored his first point. I was surprised since the more experienced players never pass the ball to the new kids. He is trying his best and we are very proud of him.

My Baby Is Gone!


Today I took my sweetheart to rehab. You know now that I think of it people probably think my husband is at some kind of drug rehab. O.k lets start over. Today I took my husband for advanced therapy.O.k. That sounds like he is at some kind of metal health center. Anyways, I was really sad to take him up there because I know it will be 2 weeks before I see him again. We are used to spending so much time together these days.

More rehab


I just wanted to let our Family and Friends know that Brian will be returning to rehab at the Spinal Cord Injury Unit at the Seattle VA on Monday January 26th. He is scheduled to be there for 3 weeks but if he continues to progress he will stay longer. His goal is to be able to walk when he returns home, which is possible with his hard work, determination and the prayers of many others. I'm sure he would love visits while he is there, especially since I wont see him for his first two weeks while at rehab. I will be taking a much needed vacation. He has a cell phone that you can reach him at 360-269-5003

Daddy's Little Buddy



Most mornings Quinton loves to climb in bed with Brian and snuggle. He loves to smack his belly and blow bubbles on it. He sure does love his daddy.

Babies Gone Wild!!











Quinton and Isabelle. Their names just sound cute together, like Hunter and Savannah. I was sure when Clarissa and I were pregnant at the same time our kids would end up being best buddies. Well I guess well have to see. As for now they either like to play together or they get into an all out wrestling match. It sure was fun to watch.

Our New Daughter.




Well since Quintons hair was so long on the top Brianna put a hair bow in it to keep it out of his face. Then Jenna decided to put a dress she bought for her dolls on him. He loved the attention he was getting for being so silly. Poor kid.

Quintons First Timeout!




So since Quinton seems to be the perfect child we dont really have to discipline him. J.K he is a Conrad. Anyways he has been such a mess maker lately that Im tired of cleaning up all day. So when I saw him dancing or was it crushing his puff snacks i.e baby Cheetos on the floor. I was like thats it, Time Out. Well as you can see from the pictures it worked really well. He did sit for a minute, then I was like,I need to take pictures for my blog. So I know I sent mixed signals to the poor child. He probably thought it was a photo shoot.

Quinton First Haircut!







It has finally happened.
I gave in and decided to cut Quintons hair.
O.K I didn't actually cut it myself.
Heidi offered to come over today and cut his hair.
I was a little nervous about the whole thing.
He has such cute hair.
He was pretty good about it.
He kept moving to see what she was doing.
She did a great job.
Thanks Heidi.

New Years

Since we are extreme party animals we had a few people over for New Years. I was totally unprepared to have company since I was out of town Monday and Tuesday and I have been ripping out our bathtub and walls in the main bathroom.




We started up the and played Wii Rockband and Had people playing that while the rest of us played board games. We were actually able to stay up past midnight, so I guess were not too much of old fogies these days.
Kellie really loves playing Rockband. Wes younger brother Andy rocked out on the drums. Kellies younger brother Derrik totally kicks our butts on the guitar

Surprisingly Brianna played the guitar also.







The guys played some Mario Kart. It was fun watching them have so much fun.
Quinton loves to hang with Dad. He also like to feed himself, hence the dirty face. And yes that's a root beer Brians drinking

Happy New Year
