What's going on now? Ronin has a new hermit crab named Hermie! We got him last weekend, I hope he lives a few months before kicking the bucket.
Quinn has a black eye from running into a metal post at the boat house.
The divorce was final last fall. I'm going to Ireland in July with 3 other ladies. I'm taking the boys to Disneyland in October for their first time :)
It's going to be hard to catch up on the last year, so I'll start with now and try to keep it updated.
School is almost out and Ronin will be a 3rd grader this fall! He's growing so fast! He's so smart and so creative :) He's finally gotten into reading and sometimes we'll just read to ourselves at bed time. He's decided he wants to be a veterinarian instead of a scientist. I think this is a likely choice since he loves animals so much. I remember having a big heart for all the animals when I was younger. Not sure if I grew out of it or my heart got a little colder through all the trials and tribulations I've had dealing with the people type of animals... :/
Quinn is... well... a typical 4 year old. Full of energy and temper tantrums at times. But always cracking us up!
I'll start the photo's with Quinn's 4th Birthday last November... soooo many photo's!
