On Saturday I was volunteering at the Camp Smile-A-Mile 5k so Robert and Maxwell decided to come with me and run the race! Go boys go! They did that 5K in no time flat and barely broke a sweat.
Here’s Mawell with his game face on getting geared up for the run…
Doesn’t Robert look official?
Smart runner tip #1: always warm up before the race!
Run Run Run Run.
Post race and not too worse for wear…
Smart runner tip #2: always hydrate after all the workout!
Proof that I was there too…
It was a fun way to spend a beautiful fall morning!
On Sunday we went to church. Maxwell was really excited about it too.
Don’t worry, he was happy when we actually got to church. He did come home and take a 2 hour nap though. I think all this teething and growing is just wearing him out and contributing to a slightly cranky baby!
One more little story that I don’t want to forget. Last week Maxwell went to “school” on Thursday and when I went to pick him up I asked the teacher how he did. She said he did great and then she said…and I quote… “I wish all my kids were like him!” It was music to this overachieving, valedictorian mother’s ears. He’s already excelling in “school” just like I knew he would! Yes, I’m being a little silly here but, in all honesty, I was beaming with pride…even if she does say that to all the moms! 🙂
Here he was before his very successful day at school!
Sounds like it was a great week-end – Maxwell is growing way too fast – he’s fast becoming a little boy and not our baby any more!
Busy! Busy! Busy! Sounds like a good weekend was had by all!
First of all, happy belated birthday to GJ. I know your big weekend has been much anticipated and I hope that it proves to be all that you expect. Don’t worry about Maxwell and I, we’ll just run to you and Stephie if we need anything! Maxwell had a great weekend. Aside from a runny nose, he did great and has been so much fun. While we ran, he could not stop playing patty-cake as onlookers were cheering for the runner; he also couldn’t stop laughing with the wind in his face. Not once did he sit back in his seat; he was perched up like a dog standing at the bow of a boat.
love Robert’s story in the comments! You should have him ‘guest post’ sometime 🙂 looks like y’all are having great weather like we are!
