1/2 marathon

Go Pete!!! Here he is running the 1/2 marathon last Saturday in almost 90 degree weather! Lilly wanted to know if he won...he was 656th, so pretty close. The second picture is when he's running into the stadium (the ending of the race).

Toledo

This weekend we went to Toledo, OH for a wedding. The kids were great throughout the wedding and reception and I even lost Zach at one point (he kept being passed around and he was kept at one table for about 20 minutes). We went to the zoo today (not the best day since it is a holiday and it was 90 degrees). The Toledo Zoo is really neat and has a bunch more animals than our little zoo here, so Lilly had a good time.

The polar bears:

6 months!

Happy 1/2 year to Zach! I can't believe he's already 6 months old. Lilly and I tried to get a cute picture of him and this one was the best- he's super drooly (all the time) and he kept falling over during the photo shoot (he doesn't sit all that well yet).

Graduation

Lilly had her graduation from preschool last night. She didn't actually graduate since she's going to go back again next year, but most of the kids in her class are going on to Kindergarten. Here are some pictures, which I'm sure will look the same next year at this time!

Zach- with his mohawk (he actually is asleep during this photo too- he tends to crash at night and there's no waking him sometimes!)

yay for nice weather!!

Today was so beautiful- what a great Mother's Day!! Here are some pictures:

At Notre Dame:

This is at the end of our walk around the lakes at Notre Dame. Zach is asleep and Lilly is choosing not to be happy and look at the camera.

Lilly's first soccer game. This game was super funny- by the end of it one girl was crying because she didn't want to play anymore, one girl was asking her dad throughout the entire game if she could go home and play, and Lilly wanted to sit on my rain boots (not sure why) and suck on orange slices most of the time. The other team won like 45-2 or something- they had 2 super star soccer players who I think need to have their birth certificates checked to make sure they are under age 5. If waves-at-parents were a statistic, our team would have taken home a medal.
