Fist, correct your date.
Next I'd suggest cvsup and a careful look at http://www.freebsd.org/doc/
en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/current-stable.html and following.
Updating sources would never ruin anything!
And FreeBSD is not only a kernel but a complete operating system so just
building a new kernel can lead you into trouble.
Good luck,
