A Bad Day

Today I would say has been not so good! Bridge has been gone on a work trip so I've been a little lonely, good thing I have my cute lil buddy to keep me company, but man was he a naughty little pill today!!! Mothers out there how do you do it some days I just want to sit down and cry and sometimes I do. It started with linc waking up earlier than expected and then I couldn't find a babysitter for Lincoln so that I could go to my tennis lesson, that I really love going to last week I had to miss cause Lincoln was sick and this week I was so looking forward to going I really enjoy it getting out and doing something for me!!! So I was so sad that nobody was answering there phones. Then it was 11 the time lincoln takes his nap but no he screamed and refused so I said ok I'll put you back down in a little while long story short he never took a nap I tried several times but he just stood up crying and it just breaks my heart to hear him cry so of course I was on edge cause of that. Ahh I really hope he's not done taking his naps that's like my time to regroup and relax. Since he never took a nap I thought for sure he would go to bed early in past if he doesn't get his nap he falls asleep at like five or six which is heaven but nope instead he wouldn't go to bed till way late for him nine thirty!!! I just never got a break today he was irritable, whinny, and making messes all day like spilling the cereal box all over the kitchen floor. but I can't ever get mad at that adorable little face of his! Every time that kid smiles at me it just lights up my day. At the end of the day I just need to be gratful that I have a great healthy family and tomorrow will be better.

The last few months have really flown by! Bridge started a new job with Silverline Security and I think he is really loving it! The best part is that we don't have to leave this summer YAy!!!!!! We haven't spent a summer in Utah in like three year, six years for Bridger! He is VP of sales and does allot more corporate end of stuff but he will have to travel to different offices over the summer but it will be worth it!

I have been training these last few months for my first half marathon! I have also started taking tennis lesson which I am loving! It has been a good adventure. I never have been a runner never have ever really wanted to I always thought running was the worst thing in the world a mile was a marathon for me! But my three sisters did one together when I was pregnant And they all really loved it. And then My oldest sister Shar told me she really wanted to do another one cause she loved it so much so I thought I would do it with her! One thing for sure I could have never done it without her, we started out slow going to the gym together walking and running and then worked our way up together, there were many days we both didn't want to run but we knew the other person was counting on them so we always did it. I have to admit I enjoy running now it's like your working so hard and then you get done with your goal that day and you get this high. It makes you feel good. Then at our nine mile run I pushed my foot to hard and injured it and I literally could not run on it for two weeks it was so depressing I was working so hard I would have been so sad if I couldn't finish my training and run the race. Two weeks later my foot was feeling almost new so I took it slow and ran the 10 miles and it was great I didn't push my self and It was so much easier for me and I could to it fine. Then the next week I ran my five miles twice and that Sat we couldn't run our planned 8 miles do to the snowy weather and then I caught a cold! So I didn't do anything this week and tomorrow is the big day! Its the Salt Lake Half Marathon! I am super excited I don't know how ready I am but ready or not I will be running tomorrow with my sister Shar. We are super excited, except Shars little boy Austin is at primary children's hospital He went in yesterday and will be staying the weekend. I feel so sorry for the whole situation My nephewAustin is the sweetest happiest little boy and he is allergic to almost everything I swear he is always saying that's not Austin food or this is Austin food he is such a good sport about his whole situation, he has super bad skin and has impetigo on his face that has been really bad lately that just won't go away! Its so bad that nobody knows what to do so he is now in the hospital I just pray that he can get better and they will find how to treat him. so with that said I hope shar can be able to run ok tomorrow!

We have a new addition to our growing family! My sister Stacy gave birth to her first little baby boy Jude Jimmer Towner! April 9th at about 1:20 am. and she is my hero she wanted an all natural birth and that is what she got. She did amazing, better than me I had to leave the room I was getting sick I don't know why I am just not good with all that stuff, I think just knowing she was feeling everything made me nauseous. She was so in the zone and everything went perfect! Congrats Stac and Chad! I 'm so excited to watch our kids grow up together.

Lincoln Is now sixteen months old and couldn't be a more fun, cute little toddler! I love him more than words and each stage just keeps getting more and more fun. I can take him to the park and let him run around he loves going out side I can't blame him everything is so new and exciting. I'm excited for summer to be here! I am also excited I can go through the drive through and get him chicken nuggets and fries for him to eat, he loves it. Oh man he is just growing so fast. He is always making us laugh.

Well, wish me luck on my race tomorrow I will tell you how it goes, ta ta for now!
