Justus Visit

Our dear friend Justus came by for a visit in February. His dad was in tow too.. (wink)

Catching up AGAIN...

Ok, no surprise I didn't get to my wonderful blog updating yet. I have sooooo much I want to put on here that I don't know where to begin.

So lets start back in January! LOL... the boys started the new year seeing the dentist for the first time. Yes, I'll admit it, I'm not a huge fan of the dentist or anyone sticking metal appliances into my mouth. But I'm determined to not pass that on to my boys!

Here they are all ready to go to the dentist! Exciting times... :-)



Dr. Benjamin Greene's office in Kirkland was very kind and caring to all the Kelly boys. They saw them all at the same time, so it was fun running from station to station trying to get pics of everyone.

Little Ry's prognosis was so-so... come to find out he had weak enamel on most of his lower teeth and some of his top teeth. Now I know why cold and sour stuff bugged him so much!! Not much they can do treat that, but say that not all of his teeth were like that. We are believing for total healing in his teeth though!!
Josiah did well too. He had a great report.
The doctor could see by the x-ray that he had a tooth growing in on top of another tooth that was still in his mouth. I couldn't see it then, but now (April) you can see it popping right out. That stubborn little tooth up front won't budge either. You can see it on the left x-ray second tooth in the picture. We're doing the wiggle thing on it every night though.
And Mr. Quin did really well too. He sat really still and answered all his questions on his own.

He did everything they asked him to do and didn't budge. Such a big boy!!
His report was great too. Strong healthy teeth!

Everyone left the dentist with a couple of cool tooth brushes each, toothpaste, floss, toys and great memories. They came home and wanted to brush and floss all the time. Now they tell me "we need to brush after breakfast, because the dentist said so, mom!" Nice to know he is the authority on teeth and not me!!

CATCHING UP!!!

Ok, so I had grand aspirations to actually posting all kinds of pics I have and updating about whats going on around here, but only got to a few pics tonight. I plan on doing this BEFORE Asher moves on past 9 months though!! It is busy time in the housing office, so we'll see how I fair this week.

Asher's first big boy bath

Back at the first part of January Asher was finally too big for his little baby bathtub. So it was time to move him officially to the big porcelain swimming pool in the boy's bathroom. Daddy was our handy assistant... This shot is pre-bath...


So far so good...

But daddy let go and he didn't want no part of this so called "fun" activity.

Daddy got in the tub to save him though... so little Ash did well the rest of the time. Well at least till it was time to wash his hair. I had to help with that so we don't have pics of that.

After he was all clean he just wanted to snuggle and eat. So he stayed wrapped up in his towel for about 10 minutes till he was all calm again. Which basically meant till he could forget the torture of the evening and find his happy place...

Enough of that... mom had him woke back up 5 minutes later to get all buttered up!


All done!
till later... Nic

Happy Birthday Ryan!

Yes, I know it is past the date.... but I wanted to put it on here for posterity!

My wonderfuly hubby is 35 now!! Whoohoo!!

To celebrate the boys took him out to Red Robin on Thursday (pre-birthday dinner) and then on Friday we went to dinner with dear friends of ours (Steve and Hydee) and Shelly and Casey. Then on to a movie. We saw Knowing... which was... hmmm... I don't know how to put it... interesting. It was fun times though! I enjoyed just hanging out with them and lovin on my baby!

Then Saturday we headed on down to Glenoma for his great aunt Rosie's home going and later that night another dinner for the birthday boy! We closed out the night with a couple of games of Catan with Dan and made a new fan of the game!! Yes, Ry won both games that night... but Sunday I came back!

I'll have to get some pictures on here sometime. I think Shelly got some shots from the Friday night dinner.

Oh and his big gift was a digital camera from my mom so now we'll have a way to get more pictures on our blog :-)

till later... Nic
