Oh, this and that.

I’m gonna be really random today since I have no recent pictures to post because I let Nate take the camera.

Yeah, first and foremost I MISS NATE!! He’s in Virginia for work and left yesterday and I can tell already it’s gonna be a loooong week. We really are babies about this whole thing too, we’ve talked on the phone like 8 times today I think. We just aren’t apart very often, especially for this long. Nate said it felt like he was leaving on his mission again. Which is just a TAD dramatic cause he'll be gone 6 days, not 2 years. You said you’d check my blog, honey, so this is for you... I LOVE YOU!!!!! WE MISS YOU!!! DON’T CATCH THE SWINE FLU!!!

Speaking of swine. Logan has his first cold and snorts all night long. Poor kid!!

He is also battling a bout of baby acne. It’s okay, Logan, this too shall pass. You aren’t the only one to go through this. Just look at your brother (i so wish I had the camera so I could compare the two!)

And a couple weeks later, it's gone! Like magic! That Jessica Simpson was right about Pro-Active. (just kidding.)

Yeah Carter turned out okay.

Logan’s also balding. Don’t you worry little guy, your head’s just making way for your REAL hair, the hair you’ll have for the rest of your life! Unless you’re Uncle Neil.



Whew! Look what can happen in a few short years!

OH YEAH and Logan is smiling now! That sweet grin makes up for every sleepless night. Serious. It even makes up for having nothing to wear cause none of my good clothes fit.

Nevertheless. I have dusted off the treadmill.

I know I know. Logan’s 6 weeks. I should give myself a break for pete’s sake.

BUT my GOAL is to run a half-marathon in the fall. And the only half marathon in the fall I can find is the Top of Utah half (in Logan, ha ha!) and that is on August 29th. Which I guess is more late summer than fall. YIKES! But I want to try. I really miss running.

I walked on the treadmill for a few days. Then on Saturday I tried to run. Okay I knew I would be way slow and I knew I’d probably still feel a little bruised, but there was one thing I was NOT prepared for. Let’s just say I’m in dire need of about 5 sports bras. Nursing and running make for an interesting mix. Will I let that stop me??? NO! I will press forward. Oh who am I kidding I’m not wonder woman. I may be all talk about this half marathon I admit it. But we’ll see.

All right I’m boring myself with this random post. Time to flip the Jazz game on and see if we can win. See sometimes I do watch sports. Nate, aren’t you proud of me?

If "spring" in Logan is any indication of how late summer will be, it will be like fall. Good luck on the half marathon!

If that marathon is in Logan then you will pass my house! They always seem to run pass my house EVERY YEAR!!!And you would think that one of theses days that I would just go out there and start running with them ahhaahhaha. I hope that this week goes fast for its hard when they are gone....good luck!!!!

Hey Erika! Looks like three kids are keeping you busy:) I can't believe how fast they are growing up too. I'm planning on a half this fall (I'm only running 3 miles right now) but I haven't decided which one. Let me know if you are serious about the Top of Utah. It'd be fun to do one together!

Haha, you guys are so funny. I wouldn't want to be left alone for 6 days with 3 little tinies! You are going to feel like it was 2 years by the time Nate gets home, lol.
