Holiday Weekend Fun

We have had a eventful holiday weekend. On Saturday, I finally decided that I had 'had it' with our cheap, plastic trash can and that we absolutely had to do buy a nice stainless steel one. Irrational? Perhaps, I blame the pregnancy. While out on our 'emergency' shopping trip, we were able to have some fun, though =)

First whoopie pie - success!

Fountains are fun!

Noelle started Easter off right by coming into the bedroom with a bag of jelly beans and asking me to open them. Jelly beans before 8am? Check! Clearly, if you've looked at this blog at all you can tell we aren't on the latest bandwagon of keeping kids away from sugar. The day only got better from there with a lot of Easter traditional fun.

Enjoying the efforts of the hunt!

Halfway through pregnancy and a half marathon

On Saturday I celebrated hitting the halfway mark in the pregnancy (20 weeks) with a half marathon. Grandma and Grandpa watched the little miss while I headed down to Waukesha for the city's annual race. It was a great, well-run event and I had a fantastic time. A more detailed description is on the running blog: link.

Happy at the finish line =)

If the second half of this pregnancy goes as quickly as the first, our little lady will be here before we know it!
