PB & J Family: September

Cupcake September

Cupcake September. Yep. The cupcakes have landed and we have an addiction or fascination with those frosted little cakes. Yum! Yum! Yum! Isabella and I have had a few cupcake dates this month.

Isabella's first pony ride. She kept saying "this is MY pony". The word "MY" has entered into her vocabulary. Now, where did that come from?

Yep, that's my cowgirl wearing socks on her pink pony. The best part is the hat lowered over her eyes.

One of her dear friends, Roman, took her for a spin in her first car ride without mommy or daddy. She actually was pushing the gas while Roman steered the Jeep.

Twin Falls is gorgeous. It was recommended by Red Tricycle as a great hike for kids and toddlers. Now, be forewarned it is a good family hike however you will be carrying your tot half of the way.

Nana and Papa had a blast with their little rain coated chicka! Papa spent 1/4 of the hike carrying little miss on his shoulders.

I got a big smooch from my girl! Man, I love my daughter. She is the best.

We did it. I still am shocked that we took on a 10 K = 6.2 mile race. But we did it. Thanks to all my Stroller Strides girls for training with me. Those training runs by Eastlake Sammamish as well as around Greenlake were so much fun.

This was my favorite race so far. It was amazing. One of the race organizers got up and talked about just putting aside any troubles and stress and just enjoying the race. Then a girl got up and belted out the Star Spangled Banner. I had tears in my eyes as we all took off and heard the light padding of many footsteps. It was quite a beautiful moment.

This is my race partner, my pacer and one my workout buds. We actually learned to talk and run throughout our training which was quite a miracle. It used to be that I could only breathe and spit out a few words, but now we have built up enough endurance to carry on a conversation.
