My goal revised

Well I'm not trying to make another excuse although it sort of is one . . . whatever. But I have had to choose between running or feeding my baby. I guess I chose Embrie. I thought I could swing it but apparently not. I should've known I had trouble with this with the first one and I wasn't even running then!

"Dada" ????

I just thought I would throw this picture in just because it is cute.

Embrie sometimes says what sounds like "dada" but we are still not sure if it is the real deal. However, she loves daddy. She is especially excited when he gets home from work which is probably because she is sick of looking at the rest of us. She does a cute little flirty thing where she looks and him and babbles and smiles until he looks at her and then she burries her head in my shoulder. It is pretty funny.

Take me out to the ball game!

A little while back we took the kids to the Bee's game. Although, it started to rain and the wind picked up considerably right as we were leaving we were lucky enough that during the game things camled down. We got lucky a second time when someone gave us free tickets before we bought them! (this was great we are not usually lucky people). Even though they were seats in the stands we decided that for practical reasons we would take the "cheap seats" on the grass, but personally I think this is a lot more fun. Garrett brought his mitt in case of a home run.

We stood in line and "Bumble" the bee signed Garrett's ticket, but Garrett was too scared to pose for a picture with the bee so I snapped one of him holding the ticket with Bumble conveniently in the background.

Embrie was stoked she got to have her first taste of slurpee. (Buying this item made up for the free tickets, seriously it is worse than the movies there! And there are no drinking fountains and they don't allow anything brought in. End of rant.) As we all know she doesn't really turn down any food.

It was a fun time really I love it when we go to the baseball game.

Hot Days

As you can tell there is a good reason that Embrie is playing with the hose rather than braving the pool with Garrett.

Ewe's not Fat Ewe's just Fluffy

Here she is in her Lamb towel.

Embrie is 6 months old today! I can't believe how time flies! I also can't believe how chubby she is! I am going to guess that when she goes in for her 6 mo check up she will weigh around or above 18 lbs.! But she is such a cutie.

What a boy won't do

I'm not sure if I was surprised or not to turn around and see Garrett on top of the Car. Is there anything her doesn't think of?

My Goal

Ok so I have finally found my motivation. I have talked and talked about running a 5K and maybe a half marathon. I have decided now is the time! I'm going to run a 5k in Draper this September and I've been working toward that for the last 2 weeks. So I've told enough people and now really put it out there so that I will have even more motivation to meet my goal. I'll let you know how it goes!
