....and we're back

27 12 2010
Okay. Like all y'all who blog from time to time, there are fits and starts. Long pauses. From my experience these pauses are due to multiple factors, busy life, not much to share, crazy life curve balls etc. In life, you've got to take the punches and keep going. Improve even, gain new resolve.

Life changes and so do we. For now, I'm back and pretty darn happy.

At Christmas at the Corrigans, Jayne suggested we go sledding! Great idea! I'm really thankful she suggested it. I've been trying to get Cade to go, and to go with his cousins. They're all quite a bit older than him and he doesn't know them well. I can't speak for everyone, but I had a great time and I think Cade did too.

This weekend Cadesdad ran the Medtronic Twin Cities Marathon. It was fun. Esthers mom joined him for over half of the run - - great to have company, especially during those hard bits.

The first half was roughly 2 hours, the second half 2.5 hours. To me, this means I really wasn't in the shape to go out and do it. Amen to that, I DEFINITELY was not in shape to start a marathon on race morning. However, the first half or so, was quite enjoyable. It was a great two hours to stay in my head, feel STRONG, and run. Smooth and Strong. Its a motto I've heard before and it really is true. I'm going to hold on to that.

So TCM is history and done.

CadesMom rocked the TCM10, even though she was miserably sick, and still is a day later. She does rock and has unbelievable strengh. Unless of course you know her, then it is believeable.

So now, I'm watching the Vikes- Green Bay game with this guy name Jefe. Super cool guy Jefe although I think he is asleep now. During the game there have been a few Corona commercials. Seriously, why am I here? They make the carribean/mexico/etc. look so so so so so so so fantastic! Heres a video of someones corona like vacation. Am I jealous?

The Maturation of Cade

Our little guy kindergarten experience has been fantastic to date. It is amazing to see how much he changes. I swear sometimes it seems like the boy you pick up in the after school isn't the same boy you dropped off. The word amazing isn't powerful enough to describe the changes day to day and how our little baby is becoming a little boy.

Fantastic.

The picture you see here is of the little guy "mowing" the lawn. No play lawnmowers for him. He knows the difference and he is strong enough to push the real thing.
