April 3 Conrad Turned 8

Conrad is now 8 years old!  Time is not slowing down a bit.  Every birthday I am reminded of how little time we really have with these sweet kids.  They grow up too fast.  Don't get me wrong.  I love watching them grow and learn new things.  It really is amazing at how much they grow and learn in just one year.  We are so blessed to have families.

Conrad had a fun birthday.  Grandma and Grandpa Christensen were able to celebrate with us.  He had a blast opening his presents.  He got a new fishing reel that turned out to be great luck a couple of days later.  He really wanted a fish so we got him one.  He loved the fish and told me constantly.  He also loved his gifts and money from grandparents!  Thank you all!!
 Earle: He did open your card.  But it didn't make it in the picture.  Sorry!






Bo and Conrad went on a fishing trip just the two of them for his birthday.  He caught six fish on his own.  Four fish in six casts!  He has a great time.  So did Bo. :)

At 8 Conrad loves
Baseball
Soccer
Fishing
Candy (Mambas)
Motorbiking
Animals gets attached quickly
Playing piano

We love many things about Conrad:
His smile, he is always smiling
Sense of humor
He likes being with family and on special "dates" with us
He likes cooking with Mom
He likes fishing with Dad
His quick wit (which sometimes causes problems)

We love you Conrad!

  Side-note:  I think we somehow put Dash in bad water and he only lived 6 days.

 But we got a new fish named Snap and have been buying betta water.  He seems to be doing much better.
