Bailey and John welcomed their adorable baby boy on 8/8. He is a big boy who loves to eat and is already loved by so many! We were excited to go visit him and snuggle him! We also fit in a trip to the Vancouver Market and the kids had a great time rummaging through Ahma and Hapa's closet playing Dress to Impress in different themes. Ashton and Hope even joined in the second night. Themes pictured included: Wedding, Circus and Gangsta.

idiopathic subglottic stenosis
Well after nearly 8 years of thinking I have asthma I found out I have a very rare condition called idiopathic subglottic stenosis. Which means I have an extremely small breathing airway. After getting sick in December my breathing got really bad (my family called me Darth Vader) which made be get an appointment with a pulmonologist. Who found out my lungs were fine and then sent me to an Ear, Nose and Throat doctor. The doctor was able to put a small tube up my nose and down my throat to my breathing path and get a photo and diagnose the problem. I am so thankful to this doctor! I had surgery in July where he lasered away inflammation, dilated the area, and gave me a steroid injection. And although the anesthesia is a nightmare for me I am so thankful for the surgery. It has been truly life changing. I can breathe again, and workout! And no more inhaler.

We only fostered Chip and Dale for two weeks, they were three month old kitties with a cold. They have recovered and are now ready to be adopted into their forever homes.

Everett FC
Colbie made Premiere Everett FC this year and it's off to a great start. Being the newbie (for the third year in a row) is hard but luckily she knows 3 girls from Meadowdale Middle and 2 players from FCE. She is really enjoying her teammates and the coaches are great. They have completed three summer tournaments and won the final one which ended in penalty kicks!
