Ok... so we all know how terrible I am about keeping up with this blog that I thought I would add another "blogging" type thing to my plate. A friend of mine created a photo share site free on shutterfly. People (namely grandparents :) ) can you go on the site and order right from it the pictures that they want... but it also has a link to post the pics right to a blog. For some reason posting the pictures to my shutterfly site and then attaching them to this blog seems a whole lot easier than putting them on the blog. I guess that I always feel like I have to write some sort of witty entry to go with the pictures... I know it's not true, but I just feel that way. So maybe this way I will do a better job.:)
In other news... a few weeks ago we started Eliana in her first ballet class. She absolutely LOVES to dance and one of her little friends from church was already in the class, so we joined too. Of course I had to receive a crash course in all things ballet, thanks Kimberly and Nikki, since I am clueless! I never took dance and never learned to dance any kind of dance, so this is a whole new world for me. This is just a side note, but in this area of the country dance is HUGE!! It seems like everybody wants their kids in dance and every grown up grew up in dance. Like I said... a whole new world!!:) But, Eliana loves it, so that is what is important. She looks so cute in her little outfit, and I love her happy smile when she comes out of class.
My half-marathon is right around the corner! I cannot believe it! I am in the tapering portion of the training right now. Tomorrow I get to run a 3 miler... the first time in weeks that I have run something that short! I am very excited about it... I think I was feeling a little "overtrained" and was actually not enjoying my running as much which made me sad. So one more semi-long run this coming weekend and then the race is on the 14th!
Kai had his 4 month check-up a couple weeks ago, and is doing great! He is in the
50th percentile for both height and weight and the 75th for head circumference. He continues to eat like a champ, as evidenced by his 15lbs. and chubby cheeks.:) He is also a great sleeper, and such a happy baby! This is an exciting time for Jon and I as we enter into the ages and stages of Kai's development that he missed with Eliana while he was in Afghanistan. It is almost like having a first baby all over again.:) It is so fun for me to watch him taking it all in. What a blessing!
Hopefully I will do better at blogging and posting pictures with this new shutterfly share site.:) Have a great week!!
