Kvien Christmas & Cole turns One!
We celebrated a belated Christmas on January 2nd with the Kviens. It was lots of fun to see everyone. Aaron, Meghan and the kids were able to make it down. They brought Grandpa Randy & Grandma Doris along so it was great to see them. Grandpa Jack & Grandma Karolyn weren't able to make it due to the cold but we hope to visit them soon!

New Years Eve 09
The end of another year - 2009. Our year started out wonderful with the birth of Cole Lucas on January 3. The next few months were rough but we made it through them. It was fun watching the boys grow and learn new things. Sometimes they even got along!
Danny & Connie both focused on losing weight and were able to lose around 85 lbs together total. Our basement was remodeled which has helped give the boys a lot more space to play. And Danny & Connie are happy to not have toys EVERYWHERE upstairs.
The Burkels moved to Hawley & it is nice to have them so close. Now if only we could get around to actually seeing them more often!
Cooper turned 2 - times goes so fast! Christmas brought a blizzard but was fun and quick.
We spent New Year's Eve with the Burkels which is always a blast!
The focus for 2010 will be family, health and organization!

December 09
We were able to have a family picture taken for Christmas as well as some pictures of the boys.
Cole started walking even better and started to do lots of "big boy" things like Big Brother Cooper. And Cooper talks even more and LOVES to sing.
December also brought Cole's first Christmas. We had 2 Christmases in December with Connie's side of the family. And then we celebrated our own little Christmas on Christmas day. Of course we had our traditional potato dumplings. Cole loved them but Cooper seemed less than impressed this year. He is such a picky eater!

November 09
Cooper turned 2 years old on November 16th. We had a "Wonder Pets" birthday party for him with family. He had lots of fun playing with his cousins and opening all of his gifts.
Cole also learned to stand alone and took his very first steps!
Cole celebrated his very first Thanksgiving and by then was taking a few more steps.

Fall 09
This fall we remodeled our basement. It was definitely a process but was well worth all the work. The boys have a big playroom to run around and go crazy in. And there is a bigger, more family-friendly living room. No more of that horrible rock - except for the fireplace. There is also more storage space which both Connie & Danny are happy about.
The Burkels stayed with us for about a week in September while they were waiting to move into their house. We were happy to have the remodel finished by then so they actually had some space to live in!
Cole moved into a "big boy" bed in his own room in September. Connie & Daddy were VERY happy to have him out of their bed. And Cole really likes sleeping in his own room.
The boys were both cowboys for Halloween. We went to West Acres so the boys could safely (and warmly) trick-or-treat. We were glad we got there early because by the time we stopped at the food court to eat, there was a line that literally wrapped around the whole mall!!

How Time Flies!
Connie promised to update this blog more regularly and it looks like it's been 6 months (and it's now a new year!) since the last post! Jeez! Looks like it's time to get back to it so that we can be up-to-date finally!
