5K

So I ran my first 5K yesterday. Now I use the word "ran" very lightly. ;) I jogged most and walked some. But not bad for the first time. I did it in 37 minutes. And I wasn't last!! :) And again, I put Micah in charge of taking pics and this is it!! hehe And a video you can see below of me and Anadine sprinting to the finish line. Anadine has been great. I asked her to help me train and run a half marathon. That is my ultimate goal. I hope my body can make it. Don't know what I was thinking. I always wanted to be a runner. So we are starting out slow. I will keep you all posted.

Birthday and stuff

I figured I better get a post up about the boys' birthday before Christmas comes. ;) I can't believe they are four!! The time has flown by. They are such wonderful boy, and great brothers to each other and to Addison. They are such great helpers. I love them so much.

The first pic is their birthday cake that I made for them.

After preschool we took the boys to Chuck e Cheese for the first time. That had a fun time. We were there for almost 3 hours. There friend Emmy and family came with us. I think the dads had more fun then the kids playing the games. ;)










At preschool I got to go and spotlight the boys. Everyone enjoyed seeing their baby pics and I also read them a Thomas the Train story.


This last week we made this gingerbread train with the boys. It was a kit of course. :) The boys decorated the train. They had fun licking the candy then putting it on the train.

Addison also turned 4 months last month. This is a pic of her Christmas present. Yes she already opened it. ;) Can you tell she likes it. hehe What a face!!!


She is growing so much. She rolls from her back to her stomach. Of course she hates being on her stomach but can't roll back. She smalls a lot and we can get her to laugh sometimes. She is beautiful. I just love my kids. I am so blessed to have them all. Here are a couple videos.

Blog Updated

Ok fine, I will update my blog. Don't have much to update. Here are a couple pics from Halloween. And some more of my kids. Sorry, we are boring these days. Addison will be 4 mths this weekend and the Boys are turning 4 on Monday. So hopefully I will have some pics next week. ;)

LegoLand

Here are a few pics from our trip to LegoLand. We had a blast. The boys loved the roller coaster.














They are in the last car. Micah took the boys on this ride 8 times in a row. They would have done more, but LegoLand closed. ;)




They loved these cars. The boys were able to drive them alone. It was fun to watch how some kids did really well, and some had no idea how to use the steering wheel and pedal.

Blessing

This last Sunday, Micah blessed Addison. She looked beautiful. A friend of ours, Mazie Franklin, made her dress. She did a wonderful job. She also made the boy's blessing outfits, so that was special for us to have her make Addison's as well. I took a lot of pics of her in the dress, but I couldn't get one that did her justice. But hopefully you will see how beautiful Addison is in her blessing dress.

Pictures

Hello all, sorry I haven't posted in awhile. And this isn't going to be fancy. ;) Here is a link to all our pics and videos from this last month. You may have already gotten this in an email, but if not please enjoy.

A Good Day

What is that I hear? ... Nothing!! Logan and Brayden started preschool today. Yeah for me, I mean them. :) It is just two days a week for 3 hours, but that is a blessing for me. I wasn't sure how I was going to fit in some me time with Micah being the Bishop and being gone. So this is an answer to my prayers. It will keep me sane. And it will be great for the boys. We got them new backpacks, which they wore around all day Saturday. I think they are going to have fun.Today is also Addison's one months B-day. Can you believe it, I can't. Time just keeps ticking by. Wow. Addison has been a great baby. She sleeps most of the time. Nights have been good. I don't feel too sleep deprived. Micah has been great and has helped with the 10:30pm feedings so I can get to bed a bit early. As of two weeks ago, she is back up to her birth weight of 9lbs 1oz. And she has grown an inch. She is beautiful and I just love her!!!

I am so glad and lucky that the boys love her also. Logan always wants to hold her and feed her and kiss her and touch her. Brayden gives her a kiss then runs and plays. Not as interested but still loves her.



I always see cute pics of kid's and baby's feet, so here is my sad attempt. ;)
