We entered another race - we had to - it was in our community! Andy placed 5th overall and 1st in his age group and I was first female overall! The boys came to watch too and Landon was telling people "That is my daddy!" as he crossed over the line!

Broken?
After running in to use the bathroom right after Landon... he asks me, "What happened to your penis mommy? Is it broken?"

Holy Cow!
My day has become a string of "things to do" but I am actually liking my tight schedule - it really makes me look forward to the weekends! And I don't stress over where I should take the kids so that they are intellectually challenged each day.
Instead, I now wake up at 5:45 - I roll out of bed (literally) and talk myself into how much going back to work is worth it and blurry eyed, I make it to the shower. I usually have make up/hair dried before kids get up. I throw laundry in... get the coffee ready... one child is usually up by now. I get them up and try to get them excited about the day. As I am getting the first milk, then I hear the second one. Andy is getting ready for his run. He gets number 2 up and brings him downstairs. Breakfast is getting made - usually frozen waffles with choice of fruit. I am making my lunch. And in between trying to down my coffee, unloading/loading the dishwasher, double checking the diaper bag, making sure clothes are laid out so they go to daycare without having the "my dad dressed me" look, and most of all trying to squeeze in some quality time with my little cherubs before I leave at 7 a.m.

Panthers Game!
Andy scored great seats at the pre-season Panthers vs. Colts game - it was amazing to be that close to the field!
Back to Work...
I am officially back to work as of today. I have to say... so far it feels great to have a bit of separation between home and school. I love the boys - god I love them! But it makes our time that much more special when I pick them up at 3:15 and we have all afternoon/evening to play and catch up. And it also helps that they just love where they are. Yesterday they brought home an All About Me poster (even Chase too!) and under the "My favorite thing to do" category Landon told her to write "Drink some juice". I guess that at age 3 it's all about the simple things in life!

Anonymity? Not so much.
I was running the other morning without having to push an extra hundred pounds in kids and a stroller and as I was turning the corner, a woman says very nicely, "No kids today?"
