Soakin' up some sun... Two days in a row of this FANTASTIC weather, we are all LOVING it!! I'm hoping that spring has sprung, but I doubt we're that lucky. The boys and I took full advantage of it today, and went for a run with the TRIPLE. I found it on Craigslist last fall right before it got too cold to run outside, so it's still new to us...we're still trying to find routes with roads wide enough to run on. I'm not so fast pushing 115 lbs in kid + stroller + gear (books, webkinz, snacks, drinks, blankets), but I figure it's like in HS when we'd swim w/sweats on for drag. At one point Isaac asked, "Why are we going so slow Mom?" I said, "Because you guys are so heavy", and he said "Want me to get out and run?". He's my thoughtful one (and he's not normally big on excercise, so it really was a gesture of kindness).

Sarah went on a seal watching field trip today. Her class took a boat tour out of Newport. She took a few pix w/her new camera.

I am still in shock!! I had no idea we had seals living so close to us!!! The bridge in the pic below is the Newport bridge, the main bridge going out to the island we live on, and the little tiny black mass of land to the left is what you see in the pic above! Crazy. Maybe we'd have better luck with having a seal for a pet....

You are going to be one in shape woman if you exercise pushing that stroller! I can't even motivate myself to exercise - let alone push 115 lbs while doing it. You never cease to amaze me!

Hey, I didn't know you had a bog! How great! I love visiting all my friends online and peeking into their lives.

We're looking at moving to DC this summer... maybe. Dan flew to Parris Island for a trial this week so it's me and the kids, and I think we're going out to dinner tonight! Whoo-hoo for that.

Becky,
Britt and I saw a picture of Melanie today on a website. I started thinking about your family and thought I'd check-in on your blog. I love the triple! And I have to say as I've said in the past, "You are Wonder Woman!" I just ran three miles yesterday with my double and I thought I was going to die.
