Ty's First Half

He did it! Tyler ran his first half marathon this past weekend and he finished it! I'm so proud of him! A few months after I had Quinn we both decided that we would run a half marathon in the fall and I can't believe this day finally came. Training was hard with both of us needing to run and someone staying home with Quinn. Tyler often ran in the dark or late nights at the gym but he did it. He ran his race in St. Albert and finished under his goal time. Way to go Ty!
Almost finished!




21.1 km

Quinny was a big fan of the free Dilly Bar

Helping Dad recover from his race

In other news Quinny is mobile...like seriously mobile. In less than 2 weeks Quinn has gone from an occasional army crawl when she was really motivated to an all 4 crawl all over the place! She also LOVES to pull herself to standing...on anything. People, couches, coffee table, entertainment center, her crib. She has a lot of head bumps and bruises to show off her new mobility but she is loving it. She is so proud of herself when she pulls herself up. Last night she let go of the table and stood holding nothing for 10 seconds...AHHHH! I can't believe how fast she is growing up!
into EVERYTHING

crawling

working on standing

SUCCESS

Next up...my half marathon...this weekend!

That's awesome! I want to do one next October. Did you find a good training program to follow?

Oh man, good job Tyler! I'm getting so jittery, especially because you are going to zip past me the whole time haha! Also, Quinn is so sweet, love seeing her stand! (If she's anything like Ollie, she's probably falling over a lot more from standing so much- the bain of my existence.
