Everyone is healthy again! Well, the kids are at least.... It's been a good week. Here are a few pics of the kids over the last week. They were cracking up in the tub playing tug of war with the letter "O". Austin enjoyed a free ride around the house in the laundry basket!

Currently, Paul and I are relaxing, watching Curling. Interesting game, I can't find it in me to call it a sport, sorry.

Austin has really come to life over the last week. He has started chitter chattering all the time. He is definitely trying to talk, I'm just not sure what he is saying! He has found joy in bothering his sister. She has not found the same level of enthusiasm about him! I think he just really likes playing with her, and just happens to want everything she has. He flashes his little mischievous smile often. Today he did yoga for the first time. Halie got out the yoga mats and was doing her "exercises" and he joined her. He did a pretty impressive "down dog". I got it on video, but again, can't figure out how to get the video on the blog.

Halie has been just as energetic as ever. She had the day off of school today, so she was my helper around the house. She did a great job helping me clean today, she will always enjoy doing that with mom, right??? As much as Austin bothers her, she really is a great big sister to him. She know when he is doing something he isn't suppose to, helps him get things, gets in his crib and plays with him when I need her to, feeds him (they both get a kick out of that one) and really does love him.

I hit a mile stone in my training for the half iron man, I ran 12 miles yesterday! That is the first time I have ever done that and my body let me know it at about mile 10. I got through it though. After finishing that run, I began to understand how much more work I have to put into this over the next 9 weeks to get ready, so I took the day off today!
