Lost phone photos

I just tried to upload to our video site as well-You can see some new sideways clips here

Some of these got lost in the shuffle. Some cute ones for sure

                         Our tickets to the Wake/Army game

                                    I remember Ryan doing this when we moved here as a little baby!

 Drawing people like Andrew taught him-with circles. If you look closely you can see eyes

Down and Dirty Mud Run

We headed up to the Bronx for our Down and Dirty 5k Mud Run. One of our babysitters Jess came with us because someone had to watch the kids while Chris and I ran! 

                                                                     

Our before pictures, and Chris and Andrew repping out some pushups to warm up!

Our after. It was a good course with about 15 or so obstacles. We ran about a mile to start, hit some climbing walls, tunnels, cargo nets, pool of COLD water, another climbing wall, mud crawl, then another mile run with wet soggy shoes through the woods. We had to jump a few walls in the woods, climb a wall, and then wade through the ocean. The last few were a rope climb without legs and a serious mud pit you will see in pictures with Andrew. This mud run was much better than the one I did a few years ago because you got to run some of it BEFORE your shoes were so soggy. 

Chris dove right into the mud-yuuuuuummmmy

Snuggling with the non runner

Andrew and his friend Jasper did the kids adventure fun run. It was VERY short, but cute for the little kids.

Andrew did say 1/2 way through the mud, "there is MUD in my SHOES!!!" Well….

Julian completely missed his AM nap, then fell asleep like this in my lap. Poor fella
Here are some pictures of the actual kids run and the mud pit

You were supposed to crawl through, not walk, but not Andrew!

So, I had read that an adult "could accompany the child." Apparently an adult HAD to. Chris and I had already rinsed off so he just walked through with the boys. Props to Daddy!

                                Ready for the next one! Or maybe the 10k up next!!

SoHo

We had to head down to SoHo to pick up our race packets for the mud run, so we decided to make a day of it. We got lucky and got seated right away at Balthazar, which has been on my list to try for the last two years. It did NOT disappoint. We will definitely head back before we leave.

We picked up our race packets and headed to the Scholastic Store, which Chris had never been to. The kids and I haven't been in at least a year so it was a lot of fun to go back and check out some new books.

After the Scholastic Store we went to Georgetown Cupcake. Again, it did not disappoint.  I am glad we have to take the kids everywhere because it really cuts down on my food consumption. There are still SOOO many places I want to try. My waist line thanks the kids!
