Tooth Fairy & Santa

Ava lost her FIRST tooth on Christmas Eve!

The lucky little lady had a visit from the Tooth Fairy & Santa on the same night! Oh my!

Family Fun- Lights in the Park

We went to the Lights in the Park tonight. The kids loved it. We even made a stop at the Park Playhouse and Ava had her face painted, and sat on Santa's lap.
Dean, on the other hand, apparently only likes Santa from a distance! :)

1st day of Half-Marathon Training (W1D1)

I've decided to train for my first half-marathon!! I am so excited! A few girlfriends (Bridget, Felice, Amanda) have already signed on, with a few more seriously considering it (Jen, Jackie, Alyssa, Suzy, Sandra).

The race is 4/2/11 in New York City - Queens, actually. The course is supposed to be gorgeous, and flat. That flat part was high on my requirements list for my first half-marathon. Here's a link for the race: 13.1 NYC.

Here's a blurb about the course:

The 13.1® New York will be run within historic Flushing Meadows Corona Park, home of the 1939 and 1964 World's Fair. The race begins in front of Arthur Ashe Stadium the venue that hosts the US Tennis Open. As your running tour begins you wind through the park passing the New York Hall of Science, the Queens Wildlife Center, and the Unisphere. At the southern end the course loops around Meadow Lake, returning back into the park for a second loop and finishing in the shadow of the Unisphere for a great post race party.

So, I have a long 16-week training plan that starts out very easy. Week 1 consists of a 3, 3.5, and 4-mile run. I am hoping to take it slow and praying that I don't get injured again. Fingers crossed! I love having a goal to work toward!!

Proud Potty Boy

Dean loves to go pee pee in the potty!
Constantly.







I think he's too cute in his boxer briefs!! xoxo
