The Good and the Bad

Good news....we are expecting baby girl #2 at the end of January!!! Brynn will get to have a little sister to play with and we are so excited!

Bad news...Adam has had a recurrence of his cancer. We are still in the middle of trying to figure everything out. He started a blog to journal about his fight through this time and has been very diligent with keeping it up to date. Check it out....

Not much else to say right now...

Any suggestions?!?!

We found out late last week that Adam's cancer has returned. We feel like we are in a whirlwind trying to get through all this. We had some suggestions from family that we should set up a blog to journal Adam's journey through this time. We thought it was a good idea so we will be setting it up shortly. We are having a hard time coming up with a name though. If you have a suggestion or idea of what we could title this blog, leave a comment. Thanks!!

Busy summer, bad blogger

So I realized that my last blog was January. I can't believe I haven't updated our blog in so long, I'm sorry! As you can guess, its summer time and we have been veeeeerrrry busy. There have also been quite a few changes. Adam was faced with some big decisions regarding his career. We were faced with a decision to move to Houston, move to Boise or stay in Spokane with another company. All three were great opportunities so it was a difficult decision. In the end we realized that working for a different company and staying in Spokane was far and away the best thing for us to do. So, Adam now works for Medtronic and is based in Spokane. It's a great opportunity with a great company and he is super excited! Since we were staying in our home, we decided to do a little landscaping. Oh what fun. Adam has been working his butt off and still has a lot to do but we love it so far. Part of the greatness of landscaping is moving some very heavy materials. We had 6-7 large boulders, 10 cubic yards of crushed rock and 10 cubic yards of gravel to move around. So, Adam rented a fun toy for a day. Needless to say it was pretty funny watching a big guy squeeze into such a small machine. LOL! He actually did pretty good until he tried to load the bobcat onto the trailer. Pay close attention to the video below, its pretty fun and a lot scary especially since Brynnley was in his lap!!!



The next video shows the finished (well, mostly finished) product. We did something similar in the backyard. Also a cute video of Brynnley, she loves running through the sprinklers.

Takin care of business!!

For the past couple months Brynn has been notifying us when she has gone "pee pee" or "poo poo" or is about to do either of them! While I was out shopping this week, we picked up a princess toilet seat that Brynnley loves. We decided to try it out yesturday and she loved sitting on it. She sat on it for a little over 5 minutes and actually went #2!! I was totally shocked. I kept asking her if she wanted to get down, she kept insisting that she didn't. I left her alone for a minute and can back to a red faced little girl...she was going to the bathroom! Yea Brynn!! First thing she wanted to go when we got downstairs this morning was sit on her Princess toilet seat. She didn't go potty but ne thing is sure, she loves her princess potty. She is a crack up!!! Please disregard the crazy hair....it was a Saturday at home!!!

Our newest addition!!

This is kinda outdated...but in October 2009 we got a boxer puppy! We named her Roxy and she is so cute! We've been having a lot of fun with her but we have to remind ourselves that she is still a puupy!! She gets in trouble every once in awhile...but she is getting better. Brynnley absolutely LOVES her and asks for her every morning when we wakes up! Lukily Roxy is great with Brynnn. Brynn loves to come hug her, lay on her, kiss her, etc. They are quite the little pair together.
