Cork Town 2012

Cork Town Race. March 13, 2011. Rainy and 46 degrees.

17 weeks in utero. 


Cork Town Race. March 11, 2012. Sunny and 66 degrees. 

7 months, 1 week, 4 days. My first 5K.
Of course, my eyes are closed. The perils of the random pedestrian photographer. Milestone moment, ruined.

Moving on...

What about Mom's pants?

And my hat-over-the-hat sitch. 

But really, they were nothing compared to this guy's get-up.

Oh, the characters we meet.

On to the race... ready.

Seriously set. 

GO!

We started at the back. Made for rough going. 8,000 runners are a lot to weave around with our new jogging stroller.

 Rounding the barbell.

A true out and back.

  

 The Spurgeon boys ran me in.

i LOVED it!

All of it.

All 36:35 minutes of it. And hey -  I'm #1. (Or 8. Or 5654.)

What else? Well Mom loved that she could drink the beer this year.

And when she's happy, I'm happy.


The race, followed by beer, followed by the Woodbridge Pub (in Uncle Paul's hood).

A darn near perfect day.

Can't wait until next year.

Slainte!

Mirror, Mirror

Okay, so my top five toys include Sophie, plastic multi-colored nesting cups, my socks (whichever pair mom tries to put on my wiggly piggies), a mirror and what I see in it. Me. Yes, I am a bit of a narcissist. On Friday's trip to Target Mom picked me up my very own looking glass. Then had fun taking photos with it. Here are the results...

Happy Saturday!

Back at it

Yesterday I went back to school. When Dad showed up after closing time he found me in the mobile classroom.

Happy as a clam.

Mom says, "Amen to that!"

Missing the Great White North

Well, I'm back home. With Dad. He's happy so we're happy.

But we do miss Flannel:

Chocolate:

and Pete:

Till next time...

Leap Day fun 'n da U.P.

Today's fun continued...

Granny demonstrated.

And Mom returned to her roots.

Like riding a bike.

While they cleared snow I meditated on the absolute coolness my other new skill.

The straw sip.

Thanks to Maria and Ruby for the tip! Hopefully I'll be able to perform it tomorrow. Who knows since today isn't a real day?! Are my new skills real? Oh the drama.

Me in da U.P. - Episode 4

Yep. Still here.

Mom thought we'd leave Tuesday but with Snowpocolypse sweeping the U.P., she decided we'd stay put.

Activities?

Fire time...

with Gram.

Reading...

with Gramps.

And executing my new favorite move...

the wrist flick.
