the best fan club i could ask for

i recently ran a 10k and john was sweet enough to manage the munchkins while also cheering me on.  i've yet to find a good race where i can run with them in the stroller, so in the meantime, i'll relish in having some alone running time - no dog and no kids!

while jackson may have been a little delayed in his language, he's definitely catching up!  within a couple of weeks, he's had a vocab explosion, and among our favorites are:  ball, eyes, milk, brown bear, alice, shoes, moon, giraffe.   livi has too many words to count but our favorite right now is daddy.  she's had a bit of a mommy phase in terms of wanting to be held by me, so it's really sweet now that she'll yell out daddy (i especially like it when it's 6am and she's calling daddy...i just give john a little nudge and he gets up!).

a little grooming while they watch the race

they made me a sign!!

trying to get a picture with the sign was harder than anticipated

i never noticed what 'mom' reads upside down...pretty accurate. =)

third attempt with the sign wasn't successful
but jackson was able to locate my teeth

wait up, guys!
