6 Months! 1/2 Marathon!!

SCOTLYN!!

Our little Scotlyn is now 6 months old. She is getting SO big.


3 days... 6 months




Weight..16 lb 8 oz...... 75%


Height..27 in.........95%


Head.. 40 cm........60%


At her 6 month check up.

She can now:

Sit up

Cruise around in her walker

Stand up holding on to things... Favorite, the dishwasher!

She loves to smile and laugh

Talks talks talks

She gets really excited to see people she knows, she will reach and dive into your arms.

She loves little kids, learning and playing.


This past week we had our nieces and nephew at our house. So yes, we had 5 kids!! We had so much fun swimming and picking snacks out of the garden. These kids LOVE the veggies. Harper who is 1 just ate a zucchini raw! This is Porter passed out after too much fun!













On Saturday I did a 1/2 MARATHON!! Holy crap I about died! My mom's ward put it on, so it was in North Ogden. The whole route was up and down. NOT easy! I definitely should have trained more!Oh well, I finished and that was really the goal, not time!!What PERFECT weather for a run. TMI WARNING!... I felt like my uterus was going to fall out!! Boy did it hurt. Way bad cramping toward the end. Now I just need to keep training so that I can do the Ogden 1/2. These pics are no super cute! What do you expect I just got done putting my body through 13.1 miles!!



Last week we went to the zoo. We went with Luke, Brenda and Dirk. Dirk told his grandma that he was going on a date with Scotlyn to the zoo!! Soo cute.. thanks so much guys we had so much fun. Scotlyn loved it. She especially loved the monkey's.. they were the only ones that stuck out to her, well and the bear, but he didn't do anything!





Scott looks really creepy... but I thought it was hilarious!



Waiting in line for the train.



She is soo big!!
After the marathon Me and Scott took Scoti up to my moms and went off to Park City for the night. It was so nice to have a last hooray before he goes back to school. We had so much fun. I didn't know how I would do leaving Scoti for the first time over night, but I did good. I think because I was soo exhausted I fell asleep early and fast! I hope everybody is living it up before the summer is over!:)

First of all, Scott IS creepy - not just in that picture. Kidding ;) Scotlyn is getting so big and cuter with every post - of that is even possible. Congrats on the 1/2 marathon - that is awesome! Every time I have gone running since I have had Evan it feels like my uterus is going to rip in half - not a good feeling. I don't know why - maybe you should get that checked out and let me know what is wrong with my body too ;)

I can't believe you ran the 1/2! I had no idea you were training! I totally wanted to do the Ogen this year but thought I'd be preg. But wasn't, and now this year I'd only have been not preg. Like three of four months and that's prob not enough!

Darcie said...

Your little girl is a doll. I love looking at her pictures! Congratulations on the half marathon that is awesome! I ran the Ogden half last year and I'm thinking about running it again but I'm kinda nervous that I wont have my body back to where it was before...LOL let me know if you decide to run it!!!
