Raceday for Mommy

On Sunday, April 11th, I ran yet another half marathon. It was a beautiful day in St Louis and perfect weather for a 13.1 mile run. Matt and Rilynn dropped me off for the race and were there to celebrate with me as as I crossed the finish line.

silly girl thought she was still small enough to fit in a carrier :)

Easter 2010

Rilynn, Matt, Laidan & I went back to Atlanta for Easter weekend. We spent Easter morning with Matt's family, where we attended Buckhead Church & had brunch at J Christopher's. We then headed to Jasper, GA for the Baxter Family Easter gathering. It was great to see both of our families. I could not think of a better way to celebrate the Rising of Christ than with those we love!

Playdate with Ivan at Suson Park

At the end of March, Rilynn & I met Olga & Ivan at Suson Park for lunch and a playdate. Being two 18-month-olds, it was difficult to get a picture of Rilynn & Ivan together, but I was able to snap one while they were running through the grass. Rilynn loved playing on the playground and looking at the animals! We will definitely be going back to Suson Park soon!

18 months!

My how time flies?! Our precious little girl turned 18 months on March 19th! Here are few portraits we had taken on her 18 month birthday. Enjoy!
