Last week

Last week Annie tried teaching Mac how to ride a bike with training wheels. Most kids love this, right? Not Mac he was terrified. Mac is the most timid little boy. Which in my opinion has worked in my favor. He has never been a climber, a jumper or really interested in destroying things. But then when it comes to teaching him how to do something new, it's not good.

As always Gray just sat and watched.
Friday we said goodbye to Kels. The Floyd's have been some of our closest friends while we've been out in Kentucky. They have totally taken care of us. Kels was the one I called when I went into labor with Gray at 2:00 in the morning and my only babysitter. We are totally going to miss her but are glad that she's only 2.5 hours away. We are looking forwarded to her swim meets that are closer to home!
Saturday me, Nancy and Annie ran in the Midsummer Night's Run. It was the first 5K for all of us. We set a goal to do it under 30 min. We thought that would be a reasonable goal even for Ms. Annie who just started running last month. We did run it in under 30 min even though it about killed us, maybe it was the hot and humid night or the 4,000 sweaty people running in a small area...but we still had a blast doing it.
Trying not to be such a giant next to Annie.

You guys are totaly sweaty and gross....try and blame the water you dumped on your head. Good job. Next time I'll have to do it with you.

Hilarious pictures of Mac. I think it's a first child thing, to be timid. When Grey starts doing things, Mac will figure out it's ok and will be fearless. That's what happened to us with kid 1 and 2. The rest are just born fearless I think! You are amazing to run! How can you still smile after all that! We'll miss Annie in primary! She was amazing! Tell her many thanks from me!
