Fresno trip!

We rushed home from Arizona to head to Fresno to see the newest tiny babies!

Our sweet nanny, Gabba, grew up, got married (here), and now has a precious baby boy! Meet Julian Augustus Germanicus Rossi. Yup, long name, tiny man. He is precious. So fun to see Gabba Goo so happy and in love with her very own little baby boy. She is going to be a fantastic Momma and Jordan, a great Daddy!

Kailee was in heaven with this tiny baby asleep on her shoulder.

And this Big Boy had fun meeting a new friend!

THEN it was time to meet our new baby NIECE! Eva James Hamilton. AHHH... precious. I am in love with that baby girl. If only we were closer and I could have more cuddle time. My tiny man doesn't allow much. But her big cousins capitalized on all loves! Josh just wanted to pat her.

How precious is this tiny miracle?

Swinging with my tiny niece while my banshee man slept.

Auntie Cari was sweet enough to help the girls ride while we played with Eva.

J's first time on a quad. Well, just sitting on a quad. Not actually riding.
Not so sure about these giant beasts.It was a busy trip and all my babies were worn out.

Amazing Bible Study

My favorite thing to do lately is listen to Bible studies online. It's an easy way to get my daily dose of Jesus without standing still, which I have a really hard time doing. I put it on my "smartphone" and get things done while I listen. I'm not sure what God thinks about my multi-tasking, but I have to say, I have been very blessed by some studies. Particularly the one today. Beth Moore is amazing. This one is a series (3 so far, more to come. She posts them each Monday)about being secure. I think so many of us are insecure and it gets in the way of our relationship with God.

Start with the first one, then listen to them all. I did them all today because I was so blessed!!!!

Momma races again

I did Wildflower again in May. It was a blast! I chose to amp it up this time and do the Olympic Course. That means a 1 mile swim, a 25.8 mile ride and a 6.2 mile run.

My cheerleaders came! Minus their little bro since it is such a long day. Didn't want Daddy to have to entertain small fry.

I got my prerace loves!!

Thanks to the practice swims, I did rather well in my swim. The girl next to me in transition had done lots of races including an Ironman and I got out of the water before her!Off to get my bike on!

Meanwhile, the kiddos wandered with their adorable hats. How stinking cute are they?

The One and Only Wildflower. Here we go to the run.

Stick collecting

Finished!!!! Relaxing with my #1 Fan.

My time ended up 3:14:26, 48th out of 184 in my age division. Not bad for my first Olympic distance 1 year, almost to the day, post-baby. Next year... I hope to do even better!

Cuteness, again!

Peek-a-boo baby!! Daddy had a little fun while he shaved his beard.

Gotta love chubby baby toes!

And this is why the crib looks like a woodchuck slept in it. Round 3 is getting after it.

Outside playtime in the water table. Josh really liked this.
