This goes out to all the Minivan families...

Krislynn's 9 month Stats

Height: 2'4.74" Weight: 19 lbs 12 oz Head Circumference: 45 cm

Krislynn is one happy baby! She loves to keep up with her older sister, and do everything she does. She never likes to be left out. She is trying to walk and gets a little closer each day. I can't believe she will be 1 in July. She is growing up so fast. She loves Yo Gabba Gabba, and will stick her tongue out anytime of day. She was blessed with David's amazing dimples and loves to show them off. She loves food and can't get enough of it. She hates baby food and will not even try it. Her first word was mama! (I'm excited about this one since it took Lizzie FOREVER to say mama, and she would only say dada) she loves her baba, and asks for it hourly. She is a crawling machine, and doesn't let anything get in her way. She is learning to pick on Lizzie finally after all the times Lizzie has picked on her. She Loves the toilet, and thinks it is so fun to splash around in it. She loves anything to do with water. She is my water baby!

Here is a sneek peek of our family pictures! Thanks Amy for the awesome job you always do!!

Mother's Day

I'm so grateful that I have an AMAZING husband and the most cutest girls in the world. David and the girls got me a dozen roses and total fitness watch that keeps track of my distance, speed, calories burned, etc. I'm super excited to use it. Now I just need to learn how to program it and I'm on my way. David and the girls also made me chocolate chip pancakes... so yummy!

I had the greatest Mother's Day!

The Suprise of Mother's Day

My Husband with a couple of his buddies planned a great adventure for their wives for Mother's Day. David packed up the car and our lunches, jackets, and goodies, and we headed up the mountain to Lake Hemet for a family picnic. We had a great time besides all the wind. The kids had fun exploring the lake and flying kites while the mommies enjoyed the yummy food their husbands packed and relaxed.

2010 Iron Girl 10K

As most of you know I have been training for the Disneyland Half Marathon and today was my first race of all time. Let me just tell you all I am NOT a runner. I never have enjoy running, and I never thought that I could be a runner. But, this year has been different! I wanted to get healthy for myself and for my family, and I enjoyed running in college to get away from all the stresses and just go. My Bishop encouraged me to get a hobby so I picked running to see if it would give me the same benefit like in college, and it is working like a charm. I have never pushed myself so hard, and now here I am running mile upon mile. I have asked a couple of friends to join me, and their response is always... I'm not a runner! I can't do that! and my response to anyone who thinks they can't run... just try it. You are the ONLY person who can push yourself. Start making small goals so you can reach your larger goals. Here is one of my smaller goals the Del Mar Iron Girl 10K. Now I'm an Iron girl! Before the race pumping myself up!
