Oh, running

Well, 4 miles was on the training schedule for today and.... whew! That really sums it up :) My right shin is wanting to give me some problems but I fought through it today. Hopefully that didn't do anything too terrible. Tomorrow is a rest day, so maybe by Monday I will be good to go again!

Avery's walking is really getting GOOD :) I do have a video from about a week ago when she first started taking more than a step or two, but it is almost 9 minutes long. I am still trying to figure out how to just take a minute or two to post, but I am obviously a huge dork and can't figure it out! Fingers crossed, video to come soon!!

UPDATE

I know it's been a while since I've posted anything, we've been having some computer issues but now we are back in business!!! We surpassed Ayden's one year anniversary with no issues. He was released from his social isolation that we have been under forever, and now is enrolled in school!!! We are so blessed!!! Avery recently started taking her first steps which is very exciting!!! Since my last post I have decided instead of doing the Cowtown race that I would join Team in Training. This is an organization that raises money for the leukemia and lymphoma society. With everything we went through with Ayden, I just felt like I needed to give back somehow and help others. My race is a half marathon in May. So that means I will be running 13.1 miles!! Crazy, huh?!?! I am very excited and nervous all at the same time.
