SJS Jog

We spent Sat. morning at the St. Joseph's School jog. The goal was met for the number of students participating so Donavan ran in this costume. Donavan ran the fun run in this suit (I actually thought the uniform was a little offensive). His quads are hurting today. I ran in the 5k race and it was a really challenging course. Uphill climbs every time I looked up. I did run it just under my goal time of 30 minutes.

We've been spending a lot of time at home this weekend working on potty training. Isaac has not had any accidents in the last 3 days and even wore big boy underwear out to dinner last nite. He's been telling us when he has to go to the bathroom. He even went #2 twice in the potty today. He's so proud and we're just thrilled about his progress. Diaper free here we come.

Isaac and I made cinnamon muffins this morning before church. He loves helping in the kitchen. His fav. parts were breaking the eggs and the hand mixer.

Week in Review

Another week has flown by and I've neglected our blog.

This past weekend Mimi Yarnall came to visit. I don't have many pics as the visit was 24 hours long and Donavan and I weren't here for most of it. We really appreciate her coming to take care of Isaac. Donavan and I went to a work related dinner/mass in Atlanta. We spent the nite and came home on Sunday to find Isaac having a great time with Mimi. They went to Chick Fil A, Barnes and Noble, played in the sunshine with his trucks, rode his trike and went to church together.

Isaac had a great time playing with his buddies Ryan and Connor while the moms ran in a 5 k race on Saturday at Sandy Creek park. I have decided that running in cold weather is much more difficult than a more seasonable climate. Our time improved by 4 minutes which I was really excited about. I look forward to the next one.

Donavan and Isaac enjoyed cheering the Steelers to a victory in the Super Bowl. Isaac has learned the "here we go Steelers" chant, but will only sing it if he has the terrible towel in hand.

We just got back from lunch with Donavan at Clocked in downtown Athens. What a fun dive. I've now had enough grease to last me the next month. The reuben was delicious and Isaac particularly liked the tater tots (haven't had those since high school).

5K Race

I ran with a couple of friends of mine (Julee & Mary) ran in a 5K race yesterday at Sandy Creek Park. It was a gorgeous afternoon and I was really excited to run it under 35 minutes. I'd been "training" on a treadmill and thought it would be much harder to run on the pavement, but was pleasantly surprised. I'm looking forward to my next race! The pictures are taken by my Coach (Donavan) and Cheerleaders (Isaac and my Grandma Powell--Isaac's Gigi--who's visiting from Indiana).
