Progress.

Where does the time go? So much for following my training progress on the blog! My apologies to anyone who has been checking back on a regular basis.

I've neglected the updates... in favor of running!

For those of you who are not as interested in the trials and tribulations of my marathon effort, here are a few highlights from the P family summer fun:

Jacob enjoying the "refreshing" pool at Grandma's... always insists, "It's NOT cold!"

Micah on the beach, fourth of July.

GOLF CAMP!
Jacob is getting better each year... this year, he grew into a new set of clubs. It helped that he managed to whack off one of the heads of his drivers on the old set. Ha ha!

POOL DAY WITH FRIENDS

Beach, Beach, and more Beach...

The Twins' Baptism
I have a goddaughter now... sweet Taylor! The baptism was beautiful, and this sweet family is a precious part of my life.













More to come... there was more to this summer than I could have imagined.

Wednesday, November 1... Happy 1st Birthday Girls!

One year ago today, after Heather spent twelve weeks on bedrest (eight of those weeks in a hospital bed!)... baby "A" (Taylor) and baby "B" (Jordan) made their way into the world. Happy Birthday, Girls!

this picture was on October 3... almost a month before delivery

Adventures in Babysitting

Taylor is good at this pose, also known as: "Just try to get my picture before I put a thumbprint on your lens!"

Here are a few photos from my recent adventures with my three favorite "other" kids:

note to self: while baby-sitting friends' children, try not to let them choke on a ping pong ball... especially while snapping pictures.

couldn't you just eat her up?!


two of Cayden's favorite activities: running around the house and "BALL!"

looking for said ball after throwing it under the couch


Jordan's version of the army-crawl

Jordan outside and Taylor in... a fun game of smush your sister's face

tasty train tracks...

Jordan wasn't quite awake this morning

Cayden's thoughtful look.
