Busy Busy.

The month of April has passed by so quickly! Last week Michael and Wil were on there own while I flew off to Colorado for a conference and got to have a little visit with our buddies Blair, Erik and little Miss Reid. This was the first time I've been away for more then one night since W was born. Man was that tough! I couldn't wait to get home to my boys last Thursday night.

While I was away, the Campbell family welcomed Miss Grier to the group. I was so excited to meet her on Friday and spend a little quality time with Ashley in the hospital just staring at her beautiful baby girl. 


On Saturday, the kiddos had a blast celebrating Colin's 2nd Birthday. Colin had a fun Elmo themed party and since "Elmo" is one of W's few words, he said it over and over again! They had a great time in the back yard with the water table and the giant water spout beach ball. Our little guys is not afraid of the water. I can't wait for the pool to open in just a few weeks!

Easter.

Easter 2012 was an all around success. Our family woke early on Sunday morning to make sure we could all be dressed and out the door with plenty of time to spare. Our little church fills up quickly on holidays and we knew it would be standing room only. The idea of standing for an hour with a squirmy toddler did not appeal to me so I made sure we got a seat! Wilson certainly squirmed but he did make it all the way through the sermon and was sure to smile and laugh and even clap when the children's choir sang. 
After church we headed over to the Campbell's. Ashley and Chad and Jackson were so kind to include us in their family holiday celebration. We love spending time with the McCarron/Campbell crew. Jackson even shared his Easter egg hunt with Wilson. I was shocked that Wilson actually seemed to get into it. He will be sure to love it even more next year. After a delicious lunch we headed home for nap time.

Champs and Such.

I haven't been very dedicated to taking photos which has resulted in my lack of posting. Last weekend we visited my best friend/Wilson's Godmother in Richmond so that I could run my favorite race, the Monument Ave 10k.  This particular 10k was my first ever real race in 2009. I ran it again in 2010 and then missed it last year since Wilson was only a week old at the time of the race.  This year I didn't feel very prepared but ran it anyway. The Monument Ave 10k is so much fun! There were more then 40,000 registered for this race and the streets are lined with spectators. I had a great run. Not my best, but not my worst either. I can't wait to do it again next year.Our friend Hugh ran the race too. He finished 18th over all! Amazing!
After the race we had time for a quick brunch with our friends.Then we rushed home so that I could get ready to attend the wedding of our friend Becca. Michael was on Daddy duty as UK was playing UofL in the final four. We were exhausted on Sunday!

Thankfully Monday night Kentucky pulled out another victory over Kansas to become the NCAA Men's Basketball National Champs. This is our school's 8th title. And since we bleed blue, we couldn't be more thrilled. Even Wilson knows the CATS are #1!
