Running Around

Nah, Jenna's not running around yet, at least on two feet. If you can call crawling and cruising all over the place 'running around', I guess she's doing that! But, I was actually talking about me and my aunt Dee. We're doing the Royals 5k tomorrow morning at the K. It will be an early morning and I'm actually sacrificing my day of sleeping in to do it, but I do love to run, not to mention that I get a free ticket to the evening game and a discount for a ticket for Aaron (well no one wants to pay full price to watch a team that would probably get beat by the Little League champions).

So, we're taking Jenna to her first game! It is a 6:10 game and her bedtime is 7:30, so we may be pushing things a bit, but we hope she'll be enough entertained that it won't matter. Go Royals!!!

I don't need a float, let me in the water!

Swimming with my buddy Thomas

Looking out the window - is that a dog I see???

Surprise! Surprise!

Yes, we do still exist! Between a busy little girl and lots of activities, I haven't made to time post. I'm going to post a bunch of pictures seperately, so check out the other posts to see them.

Jenna is crawling, climbing, singing, dancing, and being very cute, among many other things. She still loves her Portia dog and has started petting. It is very cute and she's done a great job of being very nice. Portia had a vet visit this week and weighed 21 lbs. I weighed Jenna last week and she weighed 20.8 lbs! So, they're almost exactly the same weight.

Since I've posted last, Jenna had another playdate with her friend Thomas. This time they went swimming. Jenna got very excited when they got in the pool and started splashing like crazy. Thomas wasn't so thrilled about getting splashed in the face and wanted out. But, he quickly realized that he could splash her back and they had a blast. Thomas' mom and I try to get together every couple weeks. They kids have a good time and it is really nice for us to visit.

Another day Jenna and I visited our new "neighbors" Jason and Melissa (their house is a couple blocks away) and we went swimming in their subdivision's big pool with Melissa. Jenna kept wanting to lay on her belly and would stick her face in the water. We didn't take pictures until it was almost time to go, so she was a bit fussy.

A recent favorite pasttime for Jenna is to look out the window. She loves to stand and watch everything. She often will pull up on the window sill and point and say dog. It is so cute, but usually there isn't a dog out at the time!

Busy Girl

Last weekend we visited Grammie while Aaron watched his cousin racing (he won!). My great-great grandparents gave my mom this dress when she was born. We have pics of Mom, me, and Jenna in it.

Jenna is pulling up a lot. Here she is playing with a toy.

Crawling

Jenna is doing pretty well crawling now. She falls a lot, but when she is motivated she can really get where she wants a lot faster than I think she is able to! Also, last Monday when she first was showing off her new crawling ability, she went from her stomach to sitting.

Today we're having a playdate. Thomas' dad works with me. His wife and I have emailed a bit because the kids are only a few days apart in age. We decided to get together this afternoon to let the kids play. I'm super excited!
