ok let's see...
we are in a lull from sports right now. we will be starting soccer up again in a couple of weeks. For now the kids are doing music lessons and scouts. Brendan started guitar and he loves it. Kathryn is doing piano and she practices continuously. And Meghan is doing vocals again... singing 24/7. They are all doing quite well.
We have been battling sickness with Dillan though--he has had a rash that would not go away no matter what we did for months. He has been to the doctor repeatedly and nothing has gotten better. Well, we finally did see another doctor and she took the time to do a culture. It turns out his has been fighting strep which turned into a staph infection. So for about a week he has been on 5 medications (he had one for pink eye which was a separate issue) Now we are finally down to 3. One antibiotic and two ointments. I can see improvements finally so hopefully we will be over this soon.
On Saturday we all completed a race. It was a 4 miler for Brendan, Shane and I. Brendan smashed his previous times--His splits were 9,9,9, and 7--amazing!!! Shane ran with Brendan and I ran on my own. I won't even mention my time--it was horrible. I have reached a turning point--I don't just want to finish anymore I want a good time now. So I guess I know what work I need to do. The other 3 kids ran sprints. It was the first time Dillan had raced and he loved it!!!! Meghan is quick as quick can be so she had fun. Katie did well, but she decided that she doesn't like to sprint. She would rather run long distances--now we know.
I'm still doing crossfit--actually I'm totally addicted to it. There is no doubt about that!!! I can't shut up about it. I love it!!! I started another blog to keep kind of a journal of my progress. Maybe I will shut up a bit to the people who don't want to talk crossfit 24/7 :) Anyway, if you care to check it out the address is

It probably won't be exciting to read--as I said it's more of a log for me. But, check it out if you want.
