2nd Seed

This is just a small note about Sean and I, its not all about Mae you know. But I'm just really excited that we are both going to be starting in the 2nd Seed section (the section right after the Elite runners) for Bloomsday this year. For those of you who don't know you have to qualify with a fast enough time to get in that section. Sean was already qualified from last years Bloomsday time, but I had to run a 5k (3.1 or so miles) this past Sunday in 22:30. I figured I might as well try. So I ran my little heart out and did it in 22:26, 7:13 per mile pace. I was so excited to have made my goal. Two of our friends also made 2nd Seed with us so we're gonna have a fun group starting out together. My next goal is to run Bloomsday in under and hour. Wish me luck, and Sean too, I don't know what his time goal is though.

Big girl

I took this picture last week on our way home from daycare. It was crazy because I had turned around to look at her and was blown away by how big she has gotten. Sometimes I feel like she grown from the time I drop her off to when I pick her up.

She also just got moved up to the 2 year old class today. They told me about it last week, and today was the first day. They said she did good, which made me feel better because she had been picking on the little kids in her room. I think its good for her to have the older kids put her in her place sometimes. She needs to know shes not the boss all the time.

Every day she is saying new words. I sware we tell her to say something and she repeats it. Yesterday I said "look a the purple flower." then she says "perel flawa" (Mae talk for purple flower). Just nuts I say.

Its been gorgeous outside the past few days and Mae had been diggin that. She just loves to be outside running all around the yard. She has even been helping me weed and pick up leaves, hopefully that help keeps up.

Madi and Mae @ The Park

A couple of weeks ago Mari and Madi came over to play and it was nice
enough that we were able to head to the park. The girls were so cute
playing together. I was so excited to get this picture of the two of
them walking and talking (well maybe).

Outside

It's actually sunny outside. So Mae and I are just spending the day
outside. She is having her little snack of grapes right now. Don't you
just love her hair. Sunscreen is the best for baby Mohawks!
