Prego Progress

23 wks. Brayden took the pic :)
26 wks. Ran a 5k 6 months prego! (see next post)
I'm now 28 wks and officially in my 3rd trimester! Yippee! The nausea still comes and goes, which is annoying, but I finally am able to take pre-natal pills. They still make me sick, I just have to take them at certain times to help with that. I can now say that being pregnant with a girl is harder and I'm sicker with girls, but I'm so glad it's a girl! Just have to take one day at a time :)
And I can't forget about this little guy. I feel I've posted alot about Brayden lately, so here's my sweet Tyson- 3yrs. will be 4 next month!

Still Running

I ran a 5k a couple weeks ago! I ran 15 min, walked 10, then ran the rest of the way. My time was still pretty good: 33 min. 21 sec. but it was a 2.8 miler instead of a 3.1 which made my time a few minutes off :) I've been running/walking 3.1 miles in about 37 min. I am getting slower and slower, even in the past couple weeks. I now, run a mile, walk a 1/2 mile, then run a 1/2 mile and I'm done! I don't know how long I will be able to keep it up, but it feels good to stay active. I also mix it up with aerobics, sculpting and zumba. :)
My son, Brayden- 5 yrs, ran his first mile race, over Labor day weekend! He ran it in 12 min. 30 sec.! We only walked 2 minutes of it. He was determined to run most of the way. I was really suprized, because when we practiced at home, we ran and walked alot and it would take us 18-20 min. to do a mile. There's something about racing that makes you go faster!
Way to go Brayden!
He won 2 free kids meals at Texas Roadhouse!
It's so much fun sharing what you love, with your kids and watching them progress in different things.

School days

Brayden's first day of Kindergarten!
Walking to school
Waving goodbye
Putting his name card in a slot
Hanging his backpack up
Doing an activity
What a big boy!
Brayden loves school and he has already made friends. He brought home a picture with hearts and flowers on it and told me "the girl" gave it to him him. I asked "what girl?" "The girl, I play tag with." oh dear, and the fun has just begun! :)

Bear Lake

We actually went to Bear Lake back in July, so I'm finally posting about it!

The kids enjoying the sand

There was no beach this year and the water was gross! They had to dump a pile of sand for the kids up on the weeds and you had to wear your shoes every where, or you would get burrs in your feet! Kinda gay, but we still had fun.
Brent and our brother-in-law, canoeing
Taking the kids for a ride :)
Now this is a canoe ride! They tied a rope from the canoe to the wave runner. They ended up flipping it, it was pretty funny to watch.
Brayden and Tyson with their cousins
Brent taking a turn on the rocket.
Hold on!
The water was pretty choppy. There was no way I was getting out there!
Brent tried taking Brayden on the tube, but they fell in right away. The rope was pulling them under, you can't even see the tube.Aunt Alisha with the kiddos. Tyson fell asleep on the boat ride :)
Asleep again, the next day. There's nothing like a nice boat ride to lull you to sleep.
I did ride the wave runner. Here's me and Brayden getting ready for a ride.
Coming in from a ride.
Our Family:
Brayden 5 yrs. Tyson 3 yrs. and baby Kyla, in my belly, 20 wks :)
Summer sure was fun, but I'm so glad for the cooler weather! I usually wouldn't say that, but once you're prego, it changes everything. Almost 25 weeks now! (6 months along)
