Summer Wrap-Up

Yes, yes, I know I"m terrible at upkeeping this blog!
Lots has happened since I last posted, but I've been too lazy or busy to write and post pictures.

So Oliver and Oakley have started school and they love it! Oakley cried a little the first day, but on the second day when I explained more clearly that I wouldn't be staying with him but would be coming back in a couple hours to pick him up, he did great!
  




Not much else happening on the kid front. Elliot and I have been doing parts runs fro work while the  other boys are are school, or running errands of our own. I did buy a jogging stroller at a consignment store last week and I plan on trying to run with Elliot during school hours. We'll see how that goes. he loves the stroller so far, so I hope this works out for us.


Speaking of running, here's an update of the races I've done since the half marathon:

The races I'm most proud of are the Spokane to Sandpoint, (since I got to finish this year! I almost cried when we got our medals) the Dirty Dash, (since it was so awesome!) and the Sundae Sunday race (since it was sort of like a half marathon..)
I've been having a great time running these races and training for them, but am also kind of excited to start taking it a little slower through the winter. I still plan on running with the Winter Warriors again. I was originally going to give a re-cap of my three favourite races, but kids are up from naps and acting cranky, and it seems like an awful lot of work....


I'll try to do a better job of keeping everyone informed with the highlights of our lives, so 'til next time!

  1. Oh, the boys look so cute in their school clothes and backpacks. :)

    Are you enjoying your mornings with only one little one? I bet you are able to get a lot done.

    You are looking great and so in shape from all the running and exercising. A part of me wants to get active now, too, but the bigger part of me keeps that part quiet with candy...
