Wow time flies!

Asher is getting bigger & stronger everyday. He has finally mastered sitting. He does such a good job. Now we are working on crawling, which ought to be a blast. He reaches for EVERYTHING now, wait till he is mobile... that will be a fun day!

He is just such an awesome addition to our family! We are having so much fun with him.

I decided to run a half-marathon....WHAT was I thinking!! As many of you know, I have been suffering from some hip/butt & back pain for about 3 years now, so needless to say training for it has been a bit of a challenge.

Rex & Candice (sister) have also decided to be crazy & do it too! I hope I can continue to train & not injure myself (any further) and FINISH the race! So June 26th is the big day... I am sure I will post stuff when the time comes.

What else has been going on... one word that can sum it up is

WORK!

Rex has been busy as ever, doing what, I don't know. He has been in charge of coordinating some training stuff for the brigade that he works at. All I know is that they have got him busy almost every day & I am sure he is doing a great job. And on a lighter note, we just found out that his trip for work was cancelled, so he will be here for my first mother's day ever!

As for me, well I have been getting back into the swing of things at the new job.

I just finished all my hospital orientation and have a few more shifts on the unit orienting. This weekend I also renewed my ACLS certification, which was a great refresher, for having taken the last 6 months off. So far I like the job and am excited to interact with grown ups & use my brain lots more.

Other than that, things are the same old, same old! We are all healthy & doing good. Hope everyone is able to enjoy the beauty of spring. My next project is planting my garden, I am super excited and I hope I can grow some yummy treats.

Happy Spring!! Go out & be active!
