OVER A YEAR?!!

Who would of thought that it would be over a year since my last post! I don't even know where to begin...I will try to recap what I can remember and update everyone on current events in the Barnes family.
I started running to help me get back in shape post Lochlan's birth. I ended up running in a relay across the state of Florida November of last year. Ragnar relays hosts many events across the US so look them up if you have any interest. A team of 12 runners take turns running legs until the destination is achieved. 202 miles from west coast of Florida to the East-I ran three legs with a combined mileage of just under 18miles. Loved and hated it at the same time and of course I am doing it again this year! I am still a stay-at-home mom and find my days at the gym, grocery shopping, and the never ending housework. Luckily I have great friends who are in the same boat and we find refuge in play dates and girl's night outs.
We had many visits from relatives this past year as well. Hanging out with the cousins is always a treat for the boys. We also had a visit from Jason's side of the family from Scotland. We are hoping to make a trip out there in 2012.
Many friends and family have expanded their own families and we love watching each and every one of them grow! Unfortunately with expansion will come some loss as well.


Jaejin is growing big and outwits us all on a daily basis. I am sooo surprised what comes out of his mouth sometimes. We had a wonderful 3rd birthday party for him and tons of friends and family. I can't believe he will be starting preschool in a couple of weeks. I know he will thrive and love it and make lots of friends...I on the other hand have so much sadness and anxiety. The thought of leaving him in someone Else's hands worries me.

Lochlan is quite the toddler these days. He loves his older brother and wants to be everywhere Jaejin is. We can tell he is very sports oriented and has the temper and competitive spirit to go along with it. My baby is growing up! He is all daddy through and through.
Jason and I are going strong-we will be celebrating 14 years of marriage next month and together for over 18 years!!! He continues with EA sports and will be wrapping up his latest as Creative Director-EA Sports MMA.

Hopefully I will be better at updates for all of you. Happy rest of the summer!
