Happy Birthday, Brent!!!

Happy Birthday to my wonderful husband!!! I am sorry that you are in tax season and have to work so much on your birthday. I hope your day is a wonderful day. I love you!!!

My new hair

I had the keratin done and I love my hair now, but at times I miss my crazy curls!! It doesn't take long to do my hair and I don't need the chi. Now I know what it feels like to have straight hair. My head feels lighter and not heavy like before. I can still make it wavy with mousse, but nothing like my curls before.

I am now getting ready to go to Puerto Rico. It is not going to be a fun vacation. My mom's health has declined. She doesn't get out of bed much and is in a lot of pain. She doesn't really talk to much on the phone and can't remember many things. I don't know what I am going to find when I get there. I am scared!!!

Where did the years go?

"Time passes quickly. Many parents say that it seems like yesterday that their children were born. Now those children are grown, perhaps with children of their own. Where did the years go? They ask. We cannot call back time that is past, we cannot stop time that now is, and we cannot experience the future in our present state. Time is a gift, a treasure not to be put aside for the future but to be used wisely in the present." President Thomas S. Monson, October 2000 General Conference.

I wish he could stay this way forever!!!!!

Last night I could not sleep and it was a good thing because as I was walking to the kitchen around midnight I heard what sounded like a barking dog. Conner was so sick, he was coughing and having trouble breathing. I had to take him to the ER where they gave him a breathing treatment and steroids to open his airways. We were in the hospital from 12:30 AM until 5:30 AM. I got home at 6:00 AM and slept for a couple of hours and then had to go to my doctors appointment at 11:00 which I could not cancel. Brittany was able to come and watch him for me. Conner had the croup which gets worse at night. He already had it 3 weeks ago but it wasn't as bad as last night, we just treated him at home last time. But last night was different he could not breathe it was sad!!

I got the keratin treatment done in my hair. It made my hair very soft. Now I can wash and let it dry and it looks awesome without spending too much time, in fact it only takes me like 5 minutes to do my hair now!!!! I will post pictures soon.

Spring, going for a walk and Brittany's birthday

I love spring season in Florida. The weather is perfect! I love to go for walks. Conner likes to ride his bike around the neighborhood. In the summer is just too hot during the day to go on walks so I take advantage of spring. I love how green the grass is and all the beautiful flowers in bloom. I watched Brinley so we all went for a walk. Unfortunately Brent is too busy at work and can't enjoy the great weather. Why is tax season in the spring!!! It should be in the winter when it is too cold to do anything outside.

Beautiful tree.

Parker was playing football with some friends at the park.

Brinley loves to play with Conner's old toys.

She is walking!

Brittany and Bronson bought this new carseat for her.

Happy Birthday Brittany!! She is turning 22 on March 9th, we celebrated it yesterday because Brent is going to Miami this week. I can't believe she is 22. Brent and I were 22 when we got married and it seems like it was yesterday.

I have my computer back!!!!

My computer is back and now I can finish working on my Relief Society meeting for next week. I am feeling much better. It is amazing to me how much we depend on computers. Just a few years ago I could do without it, but not now. Pretty much everything is done on the computer. Parker's Spanish textbook is on the computer so we weren't able to study over the weekend. His Geography teacher sends his homework by e-mail and we have to print it. The best way to contact the kids' teachers is through e-mail. We love to skype with Ashley and James and to see how big Ronan is getting. It's also fun to skype with grandma and grandpa Hanson in Utah so we can keep in touch with them. I could go on and on with the list. Computers are truly a blessing. I am sure glad to have my computer back.
