I need more days like this

Not only did I have a good run this evening, but the kids and I had a fun day out.

We went to Eureka today. I had to go to Costco to pick up some stuff. Then the kids and I went to the mall to visit Tim, who was doing some stuff for this weekend's local Easter Seals telethon, and go to the bounce house place. Kara always has such a great time there. Matty likes it, but he has a hard time getting his footing on the slippery inflated surface. Today was the last day he can get in for free, as his second birthday is tomorrow.

So I saved my run for tonight. It was really, really good -- except for the fact Garmin died at around the end of mile 1. I had him plugged in, but I think one of the kids jiggled him off his base and he lost his charge. Grrrrr... So I had to use mapmyrun.com to figure out how far I had gone. But the weather could not have been nicer for a run, so I was thrilled.

Tim is taking tomorrow off for Matty's birthday, so we'll be spending some family time together. I still can't believe my baby is going to be two!

Oh, and the gem of the day, courtesy of Kara:

Kara: (yelling for me across the room after she had used her little potty) "Come, look at my poop!! It's HUGE!!!!!" (She was right...)

Today's stats:
Run:
Distance: 3.25 miles (according to mapmyrun.com)
Time: don't know, but it felt pretty fast

You'll have to remember that when she brings home a boyfriend. That should be enough to kill the mood. Grace once urged me to look at one of hers, saying it looked like a foot. It did. Still trying to get rid of that mental image.
