A Small Update

We've had a busy few months, so while I apologize for my lack of posts, I can't promise when or if I'll be able to be more regular. I'm trying to stay productive and too much time on the computer makes that difficult ;-) I do have a few things I have in mind to type up eventually, but for now, a brief update will have to do!

Judah is 3 1/2 months now, and about 16 pounds - up 9 pounds from birth! He's rolling over now, and he has so much fun watching his brothers. I know it will be all too soon before he's up and going with them! Here's a few recent pictures of him sitting with Daddy :-)


The boys ran in the annual SWAT Trot 1K. This has been a tradition for us since Isaac was 3, and this year was Joel's first year! Each of the boys came in 1st in their age groups (5 and under, 6-7, and 8-9). We think its alot of fun, and they do, too! Next year Isaac will be old enough to run in the actual 5K, so he and Michael will be training for that. Running has a history in our family - Michael and I met on the Cross Country Team in College, and my dad ran track and field in his day, and then progressed into triathalons. So its really nice to see that the boys enjoy it as much as we did. Here they are with their 1st place plaques!

And here is Ada's new bed, according to her. Whenever we put Judah in it, she comes to investigate and walks away with an offended air. She's so funny! I think Boston Terriers are absolutely the best. Don't tell Molly, our Lab ;-) We adore her, as well, but there's just something about Bostons that are really neat. Anyone who has ever owned one will probably agree.

Other than that, things are just busy, busy, busy. Trying to accomplish my goals from the summer is definitely requiring discipline and diligence on my part, but things are coming along!

Love the pics! My LO is now about 20 lbs at 7 months. Makes the verb "packing" have a whole new meaning!

Congratulations on your awards, boys! Sounds like y'all are pretty fit and fast. Josiah loves to run. I wonder if he would enjoy something competitive.
