Kids Korner!

Kalyn- she is almost 18 months old already! Where did the time go????  She has NO down. Every time we ask her if she wants something... No, but then shakes her head yes! I think she is so smart. She tells me when she poops and where her eyes, nose, toes, tummy, ears, tongue, and ears are. She has the cutest curls and she is adorable in her little hair bows... When she keeps them in of course! She still sucks her left thumb and carries her blanket around. Whoops I mean three or four blankets.... Depends if she notices or not.

Nolan- officially got rid of the pacis a month or two ago. He didn't even miss them. He has tested out of his speech therapy. He is such a handful one minute and a sweetheart the next! He loves Spider-Man and superman. I think he sometimes believes he IS superman! He hated day one of swim lessons but by day two, he was jumping off the diving board!!! We love swimming!!! He has been hitting Kalyn and Brayden. No one else... I think he gets frustrated when they don't understand him or when they take something he wants and he can't get it back. I'm so over him hitting!!

Brayden: he is such a tender hearted kid. His feelings get hurt very easily. I know I can't block it forever, but I hate seeing him with hurt feelings. It breaks my heart! He remembers everything!! He loves to sing and rock out to Christian music in the van. It is fun listening to his off-tune voice screaming the lyrics at the top of his lungs!!!

That's what's going on right now! 

Dam to dam

Well.... I did it! I ran approximately 12.95 miles on June 1 per map my run app in 2 hours and 16 min. My chip time was more like 2:38, but I know I had a rough start. Panic, restricted breathing as Jon disappeared in a crowd of runners ahead of me.... The emotions I felt at that moment, I was certainly not prepared for! My next run.... Yes..... You heard me right.... My next run  I will be more prepared for the emotional aspect. 

I think the DSM half is next on my list. My good buddy Lisa called me yesterday.... I just can't say no. Can't turn down a challenge. :) I'm too competitive for that!

We had a great turnout of family and friends after the race. It is always great getting together with the schoeberls!
