Pics of the relatives at the zoo!

Mom was looking good for her pic.


Robert wasn't cooperating so well, so I couldn't get a very good one of him.
As you can see Levi takes after his uncle Robert.

I think we wore Ethan out though. He was pretty pooped!


The best story from the zoo was from lunch. I had the kids in the stroller and Lillie was in the front where there is a tray. She was having peanut butter and jelly sandwhich. All of a sudden a bird swooped down on her tray and stole some of her bread. All of the older kids were crackin up, they thought it was funny that the bird had done that. It was a good thing it was Lillie and not Dude or we would have had a mess on our hands. I bet to Lillie the legs of that little bird were "this" big! LOL! Gotta love ya Dude.

What's been going on....

Here is the newest band member.

Here was Levi at his fun fit day.


Here is Lillie and Ethan at Levi's fun fit day. We rode the bicycle down to the school, about 2 miles each way. We were waiting for Levi to get out of school after being at the track.



Ethan is just too cute!!!

Here is my new diva!


This is from the zoo on Thur. Levi just took off with Lillie as soon as she was out of the stoller. He took her hand and away he went. It was so cute!

Then when we were in the jungle I wanted to take a picture of them in front of the waterfall, and Lillie was terrified. I am not sure why, but she clinged to Levi.

I will add some more pics in a bit, thought I should end this post before it won't let me post any more pics.

Running, Running, and still Running

Well, I had a good run, so now I want to add some pics. This first one is actually from the Derby High 5 which was the cold one, that was windy and cold!


Here is a pic of my friend Wendy and I before the race.
Here is a pic in action from the 10K, I am in the black top and black shorts in the middle of the group.

I finished my 10K in 1hour 3min. I was really hoping to be a bit faster, but I had a side ach the last mile. I think it was because I had taken a drink of water about half way through, and maybe swallowed air. It was still my best time. After finishing my 10K I thought I would do the 2mile. I am not sure why I was so crazy, but I was. As soon as I started it my legs felt like they were going to come out from beneath me. I think my body was like what are you doing to me. I finished both though and then went on to run with Lillie and her tot trot.


Here is mommy and Lillie and our medals for finishing our races!! YEAH! Go mommy, Go Lillie!

Well, I have a bunch more pictures I want to put on here, but it took a while to get the last one to finally load so I better end this post now. Hopefully I can get a chance tomorrow to add another one, there are some great pics to come! So check back!

Almost Here!

I am slowly preparing myself for my 10K & 2 mile tomorrow. I will be putting up pics from my runs, Lillie's run and Levi has a fun fit day today at the high school track, so we are heading there in a couple of hours. I know I have some pics on my camera that I need to put on here, but they are still on the camera. I have been so busy lately that I am not sure which way I am going. I will be taking pics of my new furniture too! I love it, I got a new couch and chair. I will have to take pics of my Mother's Day flowers I won from the grocery store in town. I kinda wish they would offer $$ for a raffle, I won a ham in Nov at Thanksgiving and now flowers. Maybe I am the only one that puts my name in?? Next week we will be heading to the zoo so I will be seeing many of you there! LOL I believe in the gorilla exhibit! I know Robert will be there (inside joke, mom you will understand in a couple of days). In case I don't end up back on here before Sunday. Happy Mother's Day to all the moms!!
