Jeff has to run so many SG races to be able to run the St. George marathon without having to enter the lottery because we are not St. George residents anymore :( . So he did the Spectrun 10K last weekend. He did a great job and finished strong. My mom, Kelsi and myself drove by just in time to catch him on the course for a second and then reached the finish line just in time to see him finish. We then went shopping and had a really fun weekend getting ready for Kelsi's baby shower and shopping for maternity clothes :) It was fun.
This crazy girl is eleven months old. I am in total denial that in less than one month she is going to be a year old. I was so nervous about having another baby but I cannot believe the happiness she brings to us all. Everyone just loves to be around her. I thought the kids would get tired of her but they still fight over her attention and get so excited when she smiles or laughs at them.
She is one determined little girl. When she wants something she is not going to give up without getting it or putting up a major fight for it. It's so funny cuz she is such a chill baby until she doesn't get something she wants and then the world is going to hear about it. She is a champ. Up until about a month ago she had two teeth on the bottom and no sign of any more. Right now she has six I can see trying to push through all at the same time. Four on the top and two on the bottom. She has been a bit fussy and running fevers but I can only imagine how much pain that would be and she is a real trooper.
She is standing now all the time and has really good balance. She takes one step pretty confidently and has taken up to five steps but she prefers to crawl esp if you are trying to get her to walk. In her Nana's words "She ain't nobody's trained monkey." I have mixed emotions about her walking. I am excited for her to be able to go play out back and not ruin her pants but I'm afraid church is going to be much more of a challenge until nursery and keeping track of her is going to be tough. She already gets into everything so I can only imagine once she is up on two feet and running everywhere. But OH I love that stage when little babies are learning how to walk! Thankfully I don't have the choice of whether she gets to grow up or walk cuz I would probably keep her my baby forever! All my babies will be my babies forever but it's tough when they become toddlers and leave the baby stage behind. Love Love Love my three kiddos. My life is amazing with them in it. I am truly blessed with an amazing family!
