The latest and greatest

Last weekend we took the girls to the aquarium in Baltimore. It had been almost a year since we have been, and Abby really enjoyed herself. We got another membership since it pretty much pays for itself if you go twice. They had a special exhibit for the year of the frog, which they chose to highlight for leap year this year. Here are some pictures of some of our favorite frogs. Her favorite part is still running down all of the ramps at the shark exhibit. She hardly looks at the sharks, but it does help burn some of her energy. Adrianna liked looking at all of the fish and then passed out on the way home.

This past Friday was a big day for our family. We have always talked about having two children of our own, and maybe adopting later. We know that we have been blessed to have two healthy, happy, beautiful girls, and we decided that our family was now complete. Quintin went in for his "snip-snip" (vasectomy) and is doing well. It was an outpatient procedure that took about 45 minutes. He is a little sore, but was glad that he could get it done. He started feeling a little sick on the way home because we had to go to the Naval Hospital in Bethesda and we got stuck in traffic on the way home, so it took us about an hour to get back to Annapolis. He was sitting in the back seat, and I think that, with a combination of just having had surgery and the medicine was making him a little woozy. Once he got some fresh air he felt better. He has to take it easy for the next two weeks, but trying to get him to do that is hard because he never likes to slow down. This last picture is of Q and his girls before he went into surgery
