we did it!

We completed a 1/2 marathon in June (a bit late with this post)! I could not have done it without Jared. He was the best trainer and kept me on track (motivated) while preparing for this run. He is a seasoned runner, having run a few marathons. So, you can imagine that I was a bit intimidated but, it turned out to be much better than I anticipated. I actually had a lot of fun! It is the best feeling to cross that finish line!

I would even consider doing it again!

At mile 8 we stopped to give Caden a super quick kiss

Our support team! Thanks for getting up at the crack of dawn!

my little lover.

I'm still overwhelmed by our vacation pictures. 

So, here is an update on my little lover.

He is now 8 months {tear}.

crawling at record speed, no more worm :(

cruising the furniture 

pulling himself up on anything he can grab (i.e. our legs, clothing, chairs, cupboards, sliding door)

words: dada, mama, mom

waves hi and bye
2 teeth

eats like a champ, loves food!

getting the hang of his sippy cup

almost sleeping through the night, still waking up at between 2-4, why?

loves swimming and baths

We could not be more in love with this guy. He is our world.
