My New Hobby

I am making a new hobby out of running. I have done 4 5k races so far this year and am planning one more before the year is over.

Here are my stats (be it not very impressive to real runners)

July 4th Run Wild -- I walked

Oct 3rd- Susan G Komen Race for a Cure- 34 minutes

Oct. 31st- The Great Pumpkin Race- 28 minutes

Nov. 19th- NHCC Turkey Trot- 28 minute

Ryan did the last two race with me, coming in at 24 minutes and 21 minutes ( a little more impressive)

We have one more race this year, the Jingle Bell race in December, and Ryan and I are both trying to shave a minute off our time.

I will keep you posted.

12 months of Andrew

My baby is one... Man this year has gone by fast.

Andrew is the sweetest, happiest baby I have ever met(besides Kai, of course). He is full of giggles, and smiles, and babble talk and is just so adorable.

Here are some one year stats:

He is 23lbs.

He has 8 teeth.

He can walk!!!

He eats anything and everything.

He loves his whole milk... and is adjusting well to a sippy cup.

He almost sleeps through the night ( he usually just wakes up once to get moved from the crib to mom's bed, where he snuggles in close and immediately falls back to sleep)

I am so happy I took all of these pictures. It is amazing how much he has changed over the course of a year, and it is funny to look back at him in all the different stages of infancy. My baby is growing up way too fast.

Happy Birthday Andrew, We love you!!

Costumes

Here are the much anticipated Halloween costumes....

Kai had a blast but his costume lasted all of about three houses before he got too tired and wanted to take it off...

This was my first attempt at a homemade costume, but I have to admit, I was quite happy witht the results.

We went to a party at my sister's house and had a lot of fun eating, and trick or treating, and just hanging out. We were all pooped the next day.

Happy Halloween!!!
