It is spring!

The weather is warming up! The trees are even starting to show signs of life. Avery and I have started to head over to the park a couple miles away and lately our trips have been lasting well over an hour. The slide is definitely her favorite and she will go down it over and over and over. We take the dogs with us. That way Wilson and Tasha get a chance to run their brains out for the day. We met a little boy just 10 days older than Avery today. His name is Dean and he was with his Grandmother. I got some much needed information about the area we live in! I have located the local dog park (somewhat of a local secret). I also have been told I must go to the Rural Discount store, apparently there are some great deals. She also gave me the time and location of a great playgroup only a mile from our house. Avery will give that a try next Wednesday morning!

Sam has been really busy with work and will be getting even busier. The practice is going to be resuming emergency call starting in May. Sam loathes emergency call. His bosses are heading out of town for about 3 weeks of May and Sam will be running the show.

I have been keeping busy with the MOMS group I have joined and just registered for a 1/2 marathon. It will be June 18th. It is the Mayor's Marathon. I have challenged my Dad to run it with me so it should be fun. 13.1 miles! I have to start running now! I need to get out of my 3 mile loop rut. My jogging stroller will arrive this weekend along with my in-laws, Paige and Rick. They are awesome enough to have gone and dug it out of our storage unit in Fort Collins and are flying it up with them. YAY!!!

Avery will get to hang out with her Gigi and Grandpa Rick for about 4 days this weekend! She has been in a great mood these last couple of days so I am praying that it will continue on through the weekend and their visit. Happy Avery is just so much more fun than cranky Avery and I want them to get to enjoy her silliness!

Anyhoo. I cannot believe it is already May next week! Avery is getting so big. I can't wait until I head a silly little sentence come out of her mouth. Or maybe even get to pull her hair into a pony tail. Soon enough :)
