Dad's Race

Here is Cassidy at two months! She had a doctor's appointment on her two month birthday...ugh shots! She did very well with shots, just a little screaming and out of it that day, but tylenol helped. We are happy to report that she gained another pound and a half and grew 2 and 1/4 inches. Which puts her at 10 pounds 8 ounces and 22 3/4 inches long. She remains in the 50th percentile for weight but went up to the 75th percentile for height (looks like she might be taking after daddy in that department).
Brian has been enjoying running and this last weekend completed his first race a 5K to support St. Anne's School. He's now preparing for his first 10K at the end of October. Here is pre-race with a sleepy Cassidy (her shirt says Daddy's Team).
Being the scrapbooking wife I am I got some pictures at the starting line, then found a spot along the route to get some more pics and finally made it to the finish line to capture those moments too. Cassidy slept while I took pictures, it was just too much for her.
Finishing the race strong. It was a yucky, drizzly day, but Brian assured me that was good running weather. Brian ran it in 24 minutes and 15 seconds. Not bad for his first race.
Cassidy was able to see her cousins over the weekend as well since we had a baby shower for my sister-in-law Chris who is expecting the end of October. We'll have to take another picture once the new baby comes. Ellie (age 12) is holding Cassidy. Isaac (4) is sitting in the middle and Carly (16 months) is on the right. It was difficult to get the middle two to cooperate, as Ellie and Cassidy sat nicely we snapped as many pictures as we could to get a good one of the other two mover and shakers.
Today, Cassidy and I went to visit our day care lady, Ms. Keisha. They had not yet met, so we figured with only a week and half before my return to work full-time we better go visit. We got to meet the other kids too. Cassidy is going to be one of only 2 girls in the entire day care, with many little boys around a year older....oh no here come the boyfriends! We're excited for Cassidy to be going there and we'll be stopping by again next week to take her supplies over there before the big first day! I was glad she was happy and gave Ms. Keisha lots of smiles and enjoyed checking out the other little kids, who of course all loved her, especially the only other girl, Emily a 5 year old. She thought Cassidy was very cool.
Well that's it for now!
