Yep it is true Alize turned one on June 26th. We wanted to celebrate outside at a lovely park, but unfortunately we got rained out and had to take it inside. Since our apartment is in shambles from moving we decided to hold it at only the coolest place on earth..... YES THAT RIGHT, the one and only CHUCKECHEESE! ya! So since I don't want to be the mom that never makes my girls cakes and cooks (even though I usually am, unfortunately:( ) I decided to make Zeze a barbie cake. So thanks to my girlfriend Christine (who did most of the work and showed me the way) I was able to make this adorable Arial cake. Isn't it awesome. ALize is the best. She is loving smart and so sweet. She loves her sister and wants to do everything she does. She can sleep anywhere and loves her backpack so much. She weighed in at
25.15 pounds
33 " tall
She is healthy and delightful, she can give kisses, loves babies, says baby and mamma and can talk on the phone. Oooooh I love my baby girl Alize, I can't believe she is so old!
Thursday, Cortnie and I decided to enter into a trail race of 7.5 miles. We had never done trail racing before and especially had never done this trail. I wish we would have had our camera to show you the steep hills that we were running! When the race first started, I remember thinking, ya right we can't do this, we are just going to turn around and forget the whole thing. Then I got into it a bit and I thought, oh I will just take the short route. (Why am I so negative?) Because once we were half way there I felt great and could have run even longer. My feet hurt quite a bit from all the uneven trails and going up and down hills, but it was great and I am thankful for my running partner Cortnie who has such a positive attitude and helps push me a long and accomplish things like this, that I thought I couldn't do! So here are the picts...... sorry I look so awful, no makeup mixed with a long run equals these pictures, so enjoy!
