Yang in the green shorts @ 1.5 miles.

Our fly by study continues.... This week has been a little better as we have been able to make more personal connections to the states we are studying. Cousins live in VA, Great Uncle works in the pentagon, Uncle J works in NYC, Mommy and Daddy used to live in NC etc. It's made it more real. I think the science is what the girls have most enjoyed. They like reading about the birds and trying to spot them. Where we live still has plenty of birds, and winters many birds from the north.

 Hulk has been approved to run with the girls' running club in the 5-6 year old group after the coaches watched him work out with DH & I for a few weeks. They don't usually allow 4 yr old for safety/ motivation reasons ( does the kid want to run or the parents just want a break? And can they be trusted to listen to the coaches since its not a closed track.) But Hulk's training has proven again a blessing and on his first night he finished his mile 2nd in his group. He's a very proud little man.

Hulk in the little white blur in the distance. He was too fast and too excited for his first run!

We celebrated Hulk's 1st official mile and the girls 2 mile mark with some New York Style pizza.
