Turkey Trot

To start off the big day of eating Mommy and Uncle Trey headed out bright and early for a 5 mile Turkey Trot race.

Thanks to Uncle Trey's great pacing and pushing Mommy was able to run a huge PR! 5 miles in 40:10! Guess she can actually run kind of fast when she doesn't have to push a stroller with two kiddos in it!

After the race the whole family got to enjoy a wonderful day together at Grammy & Poppa's house. We have so much to be thankful for!

Bye Bye

Charlotte and Mommy are typically the first ones up in the morning. We head downstairs to enjoy a little quiet time together before Margaret spices things up. Well this particular morning while Mommy was in the kitchen making her coffee, Charlotte was getting ready for a trip!
Notice the keys in one hand and the huge purse over the other shoulder!

Then she walks around pushing her cart saying 'bye....bye....bye....bye"

It is SO fun having some special Mommy & Charlotte time together in the morning!

Margaret teaches Stroller Strides

After almost a year and a half of dragging Margaret to my Stroller Strides workout classes almost every morning, it would make sense that she would pretend to be an instructor (with my instructor hat and all!)
Here she is singing and running in place.

Power burst of fast feet!

The really funny part of these videos is how much they are like me teaching class!

(By the way - I know that the baby in her stroller is the ugliest thing you have ever seen. I assure you she has TONS of beautiful babies. But Kia is a special doll (in so many ways) and she was asked by a good friend to take care of Kia. And Margaret has taken that responsibility to heart! So please don't make fun of Kia (at least not in front of Margaret.))

Walking

Look out world here comes Charlotte!

Within days of celebrating her first birthday Charlotte realized that she could walk! And as soon as she figured that out she learned to run! Life continues to get more and more interesting every single day!
