These things may be ugly but good golly they are comfortable. I now understand why kids love them so much and regret waiting this long to give them a try.

JBeishir Productions Presents…
I was just rooting through my old emails and came across this video that my wonderful and talented niece, Jordan, put together of the kids dancing at my parents’ house while the adults were having a few beverages at the hockey game during our Christmas visit.
Jared Has Pneumonia
Jared started his first round of chemo on the 14th and it has been a battle for him. Aside from the tough side effects he now has pneumonia and is taking antibiotics for them. This is really tough considering he is only working with one lung right now. After this round of chemo he has another to do and then will head back to Houston for the next plan of action, which will most likely be a round of proton radiation therapy. Despite the difficulties he remains strong, optimistic, and most importantly his faith is impenetrable. Please continue to keep him in your prayers.
Poop Goes In The Potty
As Cutler nears his 3rd birthday we have been pushing pretty hard towards getting him out of diapers. Over the past two weeks he has done great when it comes to number 1. Unfortunately we haven’t been so lucky with the poop going in the potty…that is until last Thursday night! We were out to dinner and all of a sudden he said he had to go. After fighting me to get off the potty for what felt like eternity the deuce was dropped and all was right in Cutler’s world. He has also successfully repeated the action at least once at school so hopefully we are on the path to a diaper free world.
I just found the video above and thought the song was great. May have to start singing it to Cutler.
The World According To Mason…
After a pretty good size lunch Mason says “I’m half way to fat because I eat a lot, but I won’t be fat because I don’t drink beer…very often.”
Boys In The Hood
Is it wrong that both of the boys ask for this song everytime we are in the truck? We raise them hard here in the burbs.
I’m thinking this will be their next photo album cover. Notice how tough Mason is when he’s thugging it up and throwing down the signs.
Missing Alaska
On my laptop my screensaver is flipping through all of the pictures that are stored there and it seems stuck on Alaska. I often find myself just staring in awe of what I got to see and am quickly becoming obsessed with the great state. I still intend on finishing my Alaska Trip posts once things calm a bit around here and the next post will be all about walking amongst the bears.
Superbowl Buddy
Future Gymnast
Cutler has been taking a weekly “gymnastics” class at school and last week they had their Olympics. Here is a video of one of his routines where he proves how literal he takes the instructions.
Working On The Wrist Shot
I haven’t posted anything on here in awhile in regards to Mason’s hockey, so I thought I would put up a quick video of him from practice last week. His skating is getting much better, he is actually shooting it harder and most importantly his celebration is vastly improved. In scrimmages, when he decides to stop the leisurely skate, he has actually scored a couple of rebound goals. Next we are going to work on his slap shot and the pulling of the opponents jersey over the head so he can dominate in the fight.
By the way, his jersey may say Stars on it but I am determined for him to be a blue.
