Rollin with my buddy

We took Milo and Wesley on a bike ride around the Jordan River Parkway with the Grants last weekend. They loved it! Well Milo cried whenever we weren't moving full speed, but maybe that's because he likes to go fast?

Real buddies hold hands.
Time for a nap...

6 months!

In a couple days our little one will be 6 months old! I can't believe how fast it goes by. He is sitting up with a little help, eating his veggies, rolling over, and playing with everything! His eyes are turning from blue to hazel (thanks Will) and he's got enough hair on his head for a teeny little faux hawk. His little personality gets stronger every day and he is so entertaining. Love his little bitty guts.
Wt- 17 lbs (25-50th %ile)
Length- 26.5 inches (25-50th %ile)

Such a change from the little bug he was at one week old:

See Jane Swim, Bike, Run...

So one night on L&D in the wee hours of the morning we thought it might be fun to form a team and compete in a sprint triathlon in the spring (if you're reading this and work on L&D and haven't heard of it yet, consider yourself joined). It consists of a 300m swim, 11.5 mile bike ride, and 3.5 mile run. I've always wanted to do this and had started to train last year right when I got pregnant, so it got put on hold. Anyways, I figure the biking won't be hard, the running I can work up to pretty fast, but the swimming is going to kill me. I'm the swimmer that has to plug my nose when I jump in the water. Tonight was my first swim workout, and I can still feel chlorine burning in my nasal passages. The good news is I learned how to dive in head first (no, I didn't learn this when I was 10 like everyone else) and I think I have the breathing and stroke synchronization down. Now to work up to 300 m when I can barely do 100m. Here's to the challenge!

Time for a new Blog

Its time for a new blog, and Im bored at work waiting for the clock to strike 5:00, so here you go:

We went to Antelope Island yesterday to kill some time on a lazy Sunday afternoon. Here are the pics. We forgot our camera so these came off cel phone. Milo loved the sand on his feet. The lake was stinky as ever. There were hoards of tiny little bugs on the shore. We saw two antelopes, one of which was only like 2 feet from the road. No buffaloes, or as they are more accurately called, bison (we learned that in the visitor's center). It was real hot and we were low on gas so we couldn't tour the whole island. Thats ok, I don't think we missed much.

Baby Legs- A Vote

So, Milo in baby leggings is officially the cutest thing I've ever seen, though Will is not quite sold on them (translation: he is adamant that they are hideous and he should not be seen in public with them on). So, I leave this debate in your hands- do you love them or hate them?

P.S. LOVE them!
