Crazy Brennen .. in Video

We've been dealing with a couple of sick boys, but even when Brennen's not feeling well, he's still crazy. Check it out ...

Potty Trained!!!!

Woo Hoo, Brennen is Potty Trained. He's been about 80% since December and now he wears underwear most all the time at home. We're so proud of him and it's nice that we don't have to buy any more Diapers or pull ups.

We're so proud of Brennen! Good job buddy! Next step, Preschool!

A Select Soccer Player?

The last couple of weekends, BJ tried out for the Northshore Youth Soccer Associations Select Soccer organization, FC Alliance. It was the first year (U11) he's been eligible to try out. He was hesitant to try out and yes, Bryan and I bribed him. To give him a little incentive he got a bonus if he made the team. Essentially I wanted him to try out to boost his confidence a little bit, sometimes he gets down on himself and I wanted him to know, if he wanted to, he could play soccer at a very competitve level.

He went out and tried his best, even though 2 of his tryouts were after his Basketball games. He had a great attitude towards making it, saying that if he didn't make it he wanted to come out harder next year and make the team next year. I was very proud of his attitude on that. His tryouts ended Saturday and we received a call that he made the team.

He politely declined the team as he's not ready to leave his friends and coaches (wink, wink) on the Sharks. Besides, if he wants to play something competitively, I think he'll go with basketball - that's really where his heart is! Stay tuned, he has basketball tryouts at the end of the month that he may be going to as well.

Brennen's new look

Brennen has a new look. His hair was out of control & he needed a haircut something fierce! I decided to try something different for him and I had his hair cut short. When we were leaving his hair longer, he needs a hair cut about every month 'cause his hair grows so fast. With his hair short now, he looks like a totally different kid!

Bryan & B miss his little mop top, I have to admit, I do too. I still think he looks very cute, but he also looks much older. I guess he is becoming a little man!

We'll see how long we can go without a hair cut now!
