Prayers

I woke up to three texts this morning. The long and short of it, my grandma is in the hospital. This is the grandma I basically grew up with being a second set of parents. She's in the hospital with some heart problems, and is stable now, But they don't know what's going on yet. Prayer would be appreciated. Many thanks.

Relief at last!

I was supposed to received the results to my qualifying exam anytime from two saturdays ago to last saturday. I still hadn't received it, until today. I am so glad, that the first word on the letter, in bold, said "Congratulations!" I may now start my graduate advisory committee, and continue to take classes (wasn't allowed to take some classes until I passed the exam). So, it's official, I am definitely well on my way to finishing school for another 5 1/2 semesters :) (I've done 4 1/2 so far!). YAY!

I love it!

more laughing :)
I have yet to figure out how to work with picasa/blogspot/my laptop, or else the video would be embedded here .


KIERNAN LAUGHING

We're off, SPRING BREAK!!!!

I cannot even begin to say how crazy busy this week has been, and how glad I am it's over! Spring break starts officially for us as soon as Bryan is done writing his two page paper (which will probably be around 10 or 11 this morning :) ). We leave to go to the airport at noon, so he HAS to finish it before then, and give himself some time to at least do a rushed pack (I've packed what I could for the two of us, and everything for Kiernan). It will be interesting to see how Kiernan reacts to the flying, luckily it's just to California, so it won't be for too long.

We're going to the bay area to stay with bryan's parents. They haven't met Kiernan yet! So I'm really excited for them to meet him. :) We'll be staying there until Friday, the 20th. So that will give us time to do some fun things while we're there, but we'll see if we actually go out :)

See you when we get back!

update with pictures!

From Drop Box

I love seeing Kiernan like this. He likes to be bare sometimes, especially with his legs. Sometimes we'll just unsnap the bottom part of his pajamas and let his legs be bare. It's so cute.

I love seeing these two nap together. Unfortunately Kiernan woke up just as I snapped this picture. Oh well.

This is seriously typical Kiernan. All smiles and looking so cute!

He's been loving the exersaucer that we've borrowed from my brother and his family.

He's also been sleeping a lot lately because of his cold.  He's getting better though, and truly is a good baby when he's sick. I shouldn't have complained before about it. 

He's also picked up laughing, and it's just so darn cute. This video isn't the best at showing his laughs because he was so distracted by the camera. The night before this video, I had him laughing on and on and on for like 5 or 6 minutes straight. It was hilarious!

From Lots of Kiernan

We love him so much!

This is a test

 


Testing something out with picasa....let's see if it works :)

Goodness Gracious

People in heaven have a great sense of humor.

As mentioned in my previous post, our car is working....but is...well...humble :) The car alarm fiasco has continued. But this one is brief and worth reading I believe .

the next day, after the store parking lot and finally getting home, we went out to get some lunch while running some errands. The we was originally supposed to be Kiernan and me, but we literally ran into Bryan as we were walking out the building door, so he joined us. Boy am I glad he did.

We get in the car, the alarm goes off. We both sigh, and get it taken care of, and drive away. We pull out of the parking lot, onto sunnyside. We turn right onto Foothill. We pass that light that marks 2100 east. Right after that....the alarm goes off....WHILE WE ARE DRIVING! yes, as we drive along, HONK HONK HONK HONK HONK and flashers going off. Imagine our surprise. I was glad Bryan was there, because if it were just me, rest assured I'd just be running around like a chicken with its head cut off. We pull over, get it taken care of, and it goes off every time we turn the car off. fun :) bryan was able to make it, later that day, not go off anymore by taking something off of a cord. Now the alarm doesn't go off at all. So nice.


Kiernan is no longer fussy. But I swear our neighbors have heard him scream bloody murder. This is due to the evil saline spray and nose aspirator. yup, he's got a cold. last week was small fevers, fussiness and coughing. This week is snot, throwing up mucus, small fevers, tons of sneezing, sleeping tons, and total happiness. I think it's just a cold, but I'm taking him in tomorrow to the doctor just to make sure it's not RSV. I know Bryan rolls his eyes at this, but hey, better safe than sorry. And there's no copay for Kiernan, so it really won't hurt.

Unfortunately, since he's really stuffed up he is wheezing at night (or when we haven't sucked snot out of him for a long period of time) so I don't sleep well as I get overly anxious about it. He slept alot today, so that means he isn't in bed yet :) and it's now 1:30 AM. oh well, at least he did sleep, and is happy :) I prefer that and not getting much sleep than him being grumpy.

I need to upload pictures. When I get my lazy bum onto Bryan's computer, I'll do that. :)
