it's been a while...

i know, i know - i was going to do better at keeping stuff posted...

well, we've had lots going on - i went to charlotte, nc a few weeks ago for training to be a girls on the run coach. it was awesome! for those of you who want more info on the program go to www.girlsontherun.org - it's a great running program for young girls to build thier sense of self and to prepare them to fight against the onslaught of negative media and peer influence. very cool...

aaron also had a conference in indianapolis, and of course it was the same week - our trips overlapped by a day. thank heavens for christina, one of my former young women from new york, who is now in graduate school up in the twin cities. she came down and stayed with the kids - we are forever grateful to her for that!!!

other than that we've just been crazy-busy - i'm just getting over a cold. we're excited for halloween - we'll for sure have some pics to post of all that hullabaloo...Y

A day of laziness with Tanner...

poor tanner - he's been sick since monday with a fever. we've been so incredibly busy since school started that all i wanted to do was sit and snuggle and do nothing but make my baby feel better. yesterday was just as crazy busy as monday and today was kinda nuts until after my noon class - then i just wrapped him up in his fleece and satiny blankie and we cuddled while i read - for like 5 hours! it was heavenly. i know it sounds bad to feel relieved/contented when your child is sick, but i loved it!! i didn't want to give him up to his daddy when he got home...Y
