Sunday morning we spent some quality time outside. While Alex was doing the first 8 miles of his 14 mile run, Noelle and I took in the local wildlife down by the bay:
Lots of baby geese!
What are those things?
Then, the jogging stroller and we joined Alex for his last 6 miles along the waterfront. Six miles was pushing the limit of Noelle's endurance in the stroller, but she was a real trooper. After, she practiced proper long-run recovery with Daddy.

Today Alex took care of some very important house-hold task; returning & replacing a broken microwave and getting us dinner! While at the store, he treated Noelle to a special ride, the shopping cart with a 'kid car' attached.
Now this is the way to travel!*
Finally, we spent some time simply relaxing and playing ball in the front yard. At one point, Noelle asked/demanded for my sweatshirt =) We were all sad to see our low-key weekend come to an end!

Why are we stuck in the back yard alone?
* Alex would like others to learn from his experience: Do not position the cart such that the toddler is within arms-reach of candy. Just a tip!
Noel + candy = Nom Nom Nom
ReplyDeleteHa, indeed. You would have thought Alex would have learned this lesson the first time w/ you guys =)
