Apologies to the very few that actually follow my blog. I have been busy busy the past few weeks trying to get ready for a 5k on Saturday, chasing Easton around, taking photos and trying to be a good housewife that I have totally ignored the blog.
I signed up to do my first 5k this Saturday at the Phx Zoo. I know I've done a half marathon before so a 5k shouldn't be too bad but the zoo is one of the only hilly places in the valley so I'm a bit nervous. Plus Easton in his stroller is at least another 30lbs to push up the hills. I'll survive! It's for a good cause too, Breast Cancer research.
The chasing of Easton continues.......he is a ball of energy that only stops when he is asleep! We are slowly working on potty training. He will go in the regular potty which is a step in the right direction. Now it's getting him to tell us before he goes...not after. We have moved him to a matress on the floor, just two days ago. He loves his "big boy bed". He has been getting up a little earlier than usual but hopefully he'll get used to it. We took a nice family trip to the zoo last weekend while the weather is still nice.
I've been doing some photos lately and it is starting to pick up. Still learning a lot from every session I do and reading a ton to improve my pictures and editing skills. Here are a few I took on Saturday. We had a lot of fun. Little C was a wiggle worm so I ended up taking a lot more shots than usual.
We had a lovely Mother's Day last Sunday. Went to breakfast at Mimi's, banana chocolate chip muffins are to die for! Larry bit his tongue and came to Ikea with me. It was his idea to try the mattress on the floor for Easton. He doesn't care to shop with me but we always seem to end up spending more $ when he comes. Last trip to Target we went for a baseball tee ($15) and allergy medication. Ended up with a ramp for jumping Matchbox cars and a gigantic Tonka dump truck....plus the tee. He went for a ride after Ikea and brought me home some lovely tulips and a card. I must say I am one lucky mama.
