Running Update, Baby Maija and More

It has been an eventful week so far!

I am now consistently running 5 laps (non-stop) at the park and my goal this week is to run 3 times. I ran on Monday and Wednesday and I will have to run at least one more this week to meet my goal. My baby boy loves running with me (him in the Chariot of Course) as I drag my dog Cassy to do the same as well. Picture this, me pushing Micah and dragging Cassy while I try my best to run the whole time. It is hard work but am so thankful to be outdoors enjoying the beautiful weather. By the time we are done, Micah is pretty much asleep and Cassy and I are pretty much done! It feels good though to know that I am pushing myself to be fit again. Like the old saying goes, 'No pain, No gain!'.

Oh yes! I do dress my boy in a track suit when we go running too. he!he! (I know, I'm such a geek!)




Anyway, I now remind myself to enjoy every minute as time does fly by so quickly. Micah will be turning 4 months in two days and I cannot beleive how fast they grow. His second vaccination appointment will be on Monday and I am not really looking forward to it. Mark is coming with us this time, Thank God! Anyway, I think I'm going to try to give him baby Tylenol before hand (sorry Lorie:) My friend Michelle did that to her son Canyon as he was vaccinated today and she said he did just fine.

Speaking of more babies, I also went and visited my girlfriend Heather today and her 2 week old baby 'Maija Louise Hausmanis'. Yay! finally a girl! and more friends who have kids! I can't wait for Maija, Canyon and Micah to meet. They are going to be such good friends for sure! Here is a picture of the two beautiful girls! Congratulations to the brand new parents, Paul and Heather! I know it is overwhelming right now but it will get better in time....I remember how so many people kept telling me that when Micah was born and you know what, it's the truth! Things do get better in time. She is such a beautiful baby! I am very excited for our kids to be growing up together :)

Anyway, I am all alone tonight as Mark went to the 'Tool' concert... in the box seats....for free too! Lucky guy! Oh well, I am not really a big pots and pans kind of girl so I just told him to enjoy! I know he will too and I know we'll be hearing it more from his blog later on.

Speaking of blogs here are a few of my favorates that I check pretty much everyday. Please feel free to check them out too..........you might learn a thing or two from them :) [Note: I have also placed the links under the 'my fave links' section on the right side corner of my page]

Enjoy! K
