This post is long overdue!

I just wanted to let everyone know that I have officially finished my first 8K race! It was this past Saturday! I have been training for this one since my very first race back in March and I think that it paid off! The day was beautiful! Not to warm and not a breath of wind! The adrenaline started to flow as we were waiting for the gun start and then we were off! I did this race with my friends Ada and Nicki who also ran the first one with me. I had hoped to finish in under and hour and when the official times were posted I was thrilled to see 52 minutes 45 seconds! I was also thrilled to see my sweet family cheering me on at the finish line! Thanks you guys! I will hopefully add a picture to this post in the near future, but I have to wait for a copy from Nicki!

Kids Lately!

As the school year winds down there is so much going on with Hadley and Rawley. Between field trips, swimming, home projects, etc you get the idea. So far this month we have already celebrated Hadley's Un-Birthday with these




and built this boat for Science



we will have to wait and see how it holds up to all of the tests they are planning to put it through! All I know is it floats and that is a big part of it!


This is only the beginning, tomorrow Rawley has his Father's Day celebration, and next week a trip to the farm. Hopefully I will tag along for that one, because I think that Emmy would have a blast! And I still have to get the Teachers gifts ready! Looks like June will be a big blur, but we will have some fun things to remember about it! For now though I will get back to reading The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner. You can read it for free until July 5th here.

8 Months!!!

Here she is in all her glory! Only crawling for a couple of weeks and she is already so fast! I have to hold her while I sweep the floor otherwise she is trying to eat everything I have swept up! It is amazing how much she has changed! Solid foods more often, trying to get her to nurse is a nightmare. I am lucky if she eats for 4 minutes total at anytime other than first thing in the morning, so I have been supplementing her with formula. Thank goodness she doesn't care one way or the other in that regard. She is quickly growing out of all her clothes. Right now she is wearing 12 month sized clothes. Not sure on height or weight since we don't see the Dr. for another month. She is still sleeping amazingly well. At least 8 hours straight through the night and sometimes 12. She is such a happy girl, and I love that she is so easy going! I am finding it hard to think that in 4 short months she will be 1!
