Cable and Kiawah Island Marathon

So I said goodbye to cable this week. Matt and I have fought getting cable (or a TV for that matter) for years but when I was a mere 55 lbs heavier than I have ever been I gave in. But now that the Olympics are over and it is starting to cool down we said goodbye.

Also, Matt and I are signing up for a half marathon on December 6, maybe it will help me lose the last 10 lbs that won't seem to go away. It is the Kiawah Island Marathon. My goal is to do a full marathon before I have a second baby. And between babies two and three to do a triathlon. But I'm just taking it one step at a time right now though. Keeley isn't quite able to sit up in my jogger so we run with the big stroller. It is quite a site. Here is the link to the Marathon if you want to check it out. Kiawah Island Marathon

Hopefest 2008

Matt and I to finish finish up our anniversary got tickets to Hopefest 2008. They are a group that raises money for AIDS/HIV in Africa good cause, plus it was a sweet concert program. They held it in Cary just an hour and a half north of us. We went in the evening to see Colbie Caillat and Edwin McCain. We took Keeley because it was an outdoor festival. However, the second we showed up it began to rain and the rain turned into a down pour. They obviously had to stop the entire concert. We waited for two hours. It was kinda fun though we just hung out and watched the lightening light up the trees. Here is a video of the storm. I was trying to keep Keeley dry while she ate!


When they rain hadn't let up they moved some of the artist under the area where we were sitting and they sang acoustic. It was awesome. We ended up having some of the best seats in the house. Here is a dark picture of Edwin McCain.



After the storm cleared they discovered it had gotten to the equipment so Colbie Caillat also played acoustic. It was very kick back. Nearly everyone had left so she played for probably only 500 people compared to the 300o or so that were there when we got there. Here is Bulbbly:



We had a great time even with all the set backs.

Mom's Girl

She looks a lot like me as a baby in the picture. However, she is much thinner. I can thank Matt for that contribution.

Sunday Walk

A few weeks ago after church we headed out for a little walk. Keeley loves being outside!

A Poopy Story

So it was bound to happen and although many of you I'm sure could do with out these pictures they have been added so one day when Keeley looks through this blog book I can say "Look what you put me through!"

Not much to tell. I was in the middle of changing her when she decided she had to go. I had her feet pulled back and I think that is what induced it. She fired away all over the walls, outfits, floors and of course me. This is what remained on the changer after a little clean up. What mess. Thank heavens for oxy clean. This is only after she peeded twice and pooped all down my outfit at the photographers during the naked baby pictures posted earlier. I ended up all over the photographers carpet and nice blankets. Fortunately she was very understanding.
