Birthday Wishes

I had a fun birthday on Monday, Ryan got me just what I was hoping for! He got me a Strollometer. It's a little wireless device that goes on your stroller and tracks your distance and time, it even tells you the temperature. Yeah! I can't wait to use it. I'm just waiting for a sunny day so we can go for a run. Today is definately not that sunny day. We're having a big snow storm today! Crazy Milwaukee. We're supposed to get anywhere from 4-7 inches of snow. Someone needs to remind Milwaukee its spring time! The flowers are supposed to be blooming, the grass getting greener, nice warm afternoons at the park.....no such luck.
Speaking of running, I just signed up to do a road race down in Madison. Ryan and I were both going to run it with Sadie, but they don't allow strollers so now Ryan's going to hang out with Sadie while I run it. He thought that was a great out for him not to have to run it, but I'm not going to let him off that easy....I'm going to have to trick him into running another one with me this summer. Its an 8k race (5 miles) and its been quite some time since I've actually ran 5 miles. Sad, but true. I've been running quite a bit with sadie the past few weeks, but usually only about 3 miles. Last night we went to Ruby Tuesday for my birthday dinner and it was DELICIOUS. That's my new favorite restaurant. Sadie surprised us and was very good during dinner. She sat in a high chair like a big girl and tried to grab everything in site. It was a fun night.

So sorry I didn't know it was your birthday! Happy late birthday! I hope you did end up having a wonderful day and it sounds like Ryan & Sadie took good care of you. You deserve it!

Your race sounds like fun. I have signed up for a couple this year too. A couple 5k's and 10ks. An 8k sounds about perfect, though. You will do great. And, the strollometer sounds awesome! YOu'll have to let me know how it works out for you. Good job running at all with a baby...I know lots of people who aren't that dedicated. You are so dang cute!

Love, Karli

I hope you had a fabulous birthday! I sure wish we were out there to help you celebrate. I'm so proud of you for running. Not an easy task with an extra one in tow. And your five miles will be cake considering that you won't be pushing a 20+ pound baby/stroller

miss you guys. Kiss that baby girl for us!
love,
Shannnon
