Rem is 3!

Remingtons birthday was on November 6th. He denies the fact that it was his birthday or that he actually turned 3. If you ask him how old he is, he will say "2". LOL! We celebrated his birthday at my Grandparents house. Which was a HUGE blessing since I've been sick for the past few weeks. We had a potato bar for dinner, ice cream cake for dessert, and presents. Rem had a lot of fun at his party!

I haven't uploaded pictures yet, but here is a video of Rem blowing out the candle on is Birthday cake.

Happy Halloween!

On Halloween, we went over to Grandma Carolyns for dinner & Nate took Rem trick-or treating after dinner. I didn't go with them because I'm sick once again. It was fun this year because Remington understood more. Rem gave us a hard time w/ taking pictures so these are the best shots we got.

AF 5K Halloween fun run!

On Saturday, I ran my first 5K. All day I was SuPeR DuPeR nervous. Once I got running, I started feeling better about everything. Some of my fears was "what if I get lost" or "what if I'm the very last one to finish the race". None of those happened. I ran with in my goal even though I ended up getting the flu early that week & didn't get to train at all. Nate & my good friend Megan ran as well.

My finishing time was 45 minutes & 17.5 seconds. That was around what I expected since I do a 15 minute mile. Nate finished with 33 minutes & 32.5 seconds. GO NATE!

Here are some pictures from the race. It was so much fun! We plan on running another 5K in two weeks!!!!!

The whole gang...

I ran with this girl for a good 15 minutes.


Just as I was coming to the finish-line. Yay!

It is official!

Tonight I just signed up for my first 5K! I'm excited & nervous at the same time. So far I'm running 2 miles. I know for the 5K I will have to walk some, but hopefully not a lot. My running schedule till the 5k looks like this:

Fri (16) - run 2 1/2 miles
Mon (19) - run 3 miles
Wed (21) - run 3 miles

I'll then take two days off of running then its the 5K on Sat the 24th. I'm not a fast runner yet. I probably walk faster than I run...lol, but I hope to finish in 45 minutes. My main goal though is to finish the race. :)

My son is weird!

After I change a poopy diaper, Rem always says this: "Bye poop, c-ya later poop, I love you poop. Is he weird or what?

On a side note, I have to say I'm tired of changing diapers but this boy refuses to be potty trained!!! Whenever I try to do the potty thing he says one of two things: "I don't like it" or "I scared mommy". Waaah!

At least, Rem is officially done w/ his binky. Nate and I hid them all one night and I can say now he is DONE w/ that a month before his 3rd b-day.
