Independience Day

Today I was up early with Evelyn to get ready for the Brighton Commerce 5K. I managed to get to mom and dads just in time to leave for the race. Sarah was already there so after a quick check in and trying to prepare mentally for the race (and eating a quick breakfast bar)we lined up for the race. Sarah wanted to start near Angela and David until she asked how fast they wanted to run (I was glad to start in the back) and as we discussed our aversion to running the race and trying to banish the negative thinking I kept an eye out for my co-worker who didn't show :(

Despite the negativity in the beginning we did pretty well, Sarah is good at keeping a pace rather than running as fast as you can and hope that it is over quicker therefore running out of energy at the end. Though I did loose her in the end (I saw my baby then the finish line and just wanted it over) Sarah got a little nauseous so she fell back a little, I should have stuck it out with her.

After the race the crew went to The Bagel Bin and I went home to feed Evelyn (I forgot that I didn't get to go inside to drop the food off and therefore had it with me). This ended up being a good thing as Grandpa got some great bonding time and Evelyn went down for her nap well before the rest of the crew got home. She was one tired baby!


Getting a family picture is rather difficult these days and I will try to post it soon. Even more fun than getting a family picture is trying to get a picture of two babies... Though it is well worth the effort.
