Merry Christmas!

Frustration

Can you sense the frustration in this picture? What about this next one?
That is how GREAT our picture session went with the kids!

Adyson's Announcement!

Baby Adyson is Here!

Adyson Skye Quintero born October 19, 2010 at 9:40 pm. 6 pounds, 12 ounces; 18.5 inches long. She is such a cute and sweet baby- we love her! Labor & delivery were not fun but she was worth all 16 hours of it! Enjoy the pictures:)

Trunk or Treat & Halloween!

The kids went to our wards Halloween party that was thrown by the young men and young women. They had a great time playing games and getting candy. The pictures where Kinley is a ladybug are from Halloween. It rained really hard so the kids ended up only going to a couple houses but they had a good time!

Hee Haws

We got to go on a field trip as a family with Drezden's preschool. We went to Hee Haws in Pleasant Grove and played with animals, went down big slides, conquered the corn maze, and went on a hay ride to pick pumpkins in the pumpkin patch! We had a great time:)

Drezden is back in Preschool

Drezden started his second year of preschool at the beginning of this month. The first day was a little bumpy as he had to remember how to share and get along with others. But the last two weeks he has done great! He really likes to learn and he has started to try to read. He is always asking us what words are and then he repeats the words as if he is trying to memorize them. It has been fun to see him enjoy going to school and desiring to learn.
Here he is on the first day:And here he is with Kinley who thought that she was going too!And what does Kinley do during the mornings when Drezden is at school? See for yourself!
She talks on her play phone with her backpack, sunglasses, and hard hat on with no pants and her brothers flip flops! She is so silly:)

Kyle to serve in Mexico

My little brother Kyle got his mission call to serve in Mexico! To show how proud the kids are of their uncle, I bought them these shirts during the World Cup. We are excited to pick him up at the airport and drop him off at the MTC this month. Way to go Kyle!

Soccer and Bron

We decided to try soccer for Drezden this year. Since that decision and a few games we have come to the conclusion of sticking with individual sports for him. Examples would be: tennis, wrestling and golf! In the last picture you will see him up in the air. This is him throwing a HUGE fit after someone took the ball away to which he jumped up and down kicking and screaming and ran off the field. You really should vote us as parents of the year:)
Here is Bron (BRAWN) the newest member of our family. He has grown so much and is now double the size of Nutmeg. He has such a good temperament! We took this picture in the blanket because we had lost him one night in the house. This is where he was- all blended in a brown blanket and non-responsive to the calling of his name!

Quintero Summer Cabin Vacation!

This year for the Quintero summer vacation we rented a cabin in Heber the first few days of August. We had a really great time! The kids all played well together and so did the adults:) Here was the sunset on our first night from the porch of the cabin- breathtaking!The cabin had a big loft with a pool table that the men enjoyed using. In all of my pictures everyone seems to be waiting on Joe:) You can see the view of a lake out of the window. It was gorgeous!
The cute Cook kids! The girls were so nice to Kinley. They made her beaded necklaces and bracelets. She was in Heaven!Ryan was super nice and allowed us to borrow some of his families 4-wheelers for the vacation. Here is Beky and Alex heading out on a night time ride. A tip for all of you readers: put your camera in a zipped pocket while riding on a 4-wheeler:)The cabin also had a hot tub on the deck. The kids and aunt Rachel enjoyed getting in our last day!After leaving Heber we all went to Sundance and rode the ski lift up to the top. We then hiked to Stuart falls and all the way back down to the Sundance Resort. The landscape was beautiful and the kids had a great time! I would love to do this again when I am not pregnant:)We had a great time and cant wait for next summer!

Gender of Baby # 3 and Pics of the Kids!

June & July 2010: Here is a picture of baby# 3! We found out we are having another girl and we are so excited!!! Here are some pictures of the kids being silly! We sure love our little crazy kids:)

Kinley's Second Birthday!

June 2010: We celebrated Kinley's birthday this year by going to the Zoo. One of the elephants just had a baby this year and we were excited to see her. Her name is Zuri and she has a lot of energy! The kids watched her for thirty minutes playing with water and in the mud. Happy 2nd Birthday sweetheart- We love you!

New Sidewalk and Curb/ Gutter!

May 2010: After two years of complaining about our busted up sidewalk and curb/ gutter the city decided to fix it! Here are some pictures of the project while it was happening and the end result. We are very pleased with how it looks and the kids enjoy not falling off their scooters when they ride them now! The End Result:

If you look closely you can also see our new family vehicle. With baby number three on the way we decided we needed something bigger than our little car! So far we have really enjoyed the room.

Drezden's Preschool Program

Drezden finished his first year of preschool (In May- I know I am so slow!) and participated in the end of year program... I couldn't get the video to load so you will have to imagine his amazing air drum solos through out every song they sang! The cute girl to his left in the polka dot dress is Tori. She is the girl that he would always kiss at preschool... at least she is super cute:)
We are looking forward to another year of preschool this coming school year (2010- 2011).
