" When a child is born, a Father is born. A Mother is born, too, of course, but at least for her its a gradual process. But for even the best prepared father, It happens all at once-- Just as it does for the child."

:: Somebody's Turning 80!! ::

Tonight we went over to Grand Grandma and Grandpa King's house for a birthday party!!! GG is turning 80!!! All of my(Brianna's) Aunts and Uncles and cousins were there! She wanted a small get-together to celebrate the day! We had delicious food, including grandma's baked mac and cheese, and sloppy joes, and of COURSE birthday cake for the birthday girl. We played a fun game where each family (there are 6 of us) made up a special, not to mention ORIGINAL) birthday song for her. Here are some fun pictures we took!

MOM:: Grandma :: Me

:: Meeting Great Grandparents::

Buddy's Grandpa Kooiker and Aunt Sharon came home this weekend so after we went and got pictures we went over to their house for them to meet Brogan for the first time, as you can see from the pictures they LOVED him :) and came home with presents too! Lots of nice new BIGGER clothes for him to wear in the fall, we were SOOO appreciative. Brogan also got a new Rocking Horse!!!

:: 3 Month Pics ::

This pas weekend we went to Sears and got Brogan's 3 month pictures taken, here they are :)













He has had quite the past week as well!!! He learned to pass things from one hand to another, he rolled completely over from back to stomach to back again and is just so much more attentive! I'll post again when he goes to the doctor tomorrow, his new stats!

:: First WhiteCaps Game::

Grandma and Grandpa Rivera took me to my first whitecaps game tonight, we thought it was going to rain but it held out just enough for the them to take the game with a 16-3 win!!!! We had all kinds of fun hanging out with Crash, and the pig, and Mom even caught Brogan a beach ball during the 7th inning stretch!!!!

Also Micky Lolich was there we took as close a picture to him as we could!


Here's a video of Brogan and Grandpa Rivera:
