I ran a 5K!!
Freedom run 2010 - Provo, Utah! My sister in-law Brook got me to commit to this run, and I am so glad she did! Tyler's brother Trevor also ran in the race. My next goal is a 10K! The 3.2 miles went by in a flash, so I am pretty sure I can work up to 6.4! I can't wait for this heat to quit so I can get back to running outside!

Madison can...
SWIM!!! Madison just learned how to swim!! It was official last night on July 22, 2010!! Tyler and I have been working with her this whole summer, but most of the credit goes to Tyler! It was amazing...she just got it! She turned 4 on June 29th and she has never had a single formal lesson. She is awesome, and I just had to brag about her! I know I am that annoying mom, but I am just so proud of her!! She was swimming across about a 15 foot section of the pool last night!
Also, Madison is learning how to read. She started learning in February, but I have been a loser bloggin' mama and hadn't blogged about it, so I thought I would include that with this post! My sister in-law Brook gave me her Hooked on Phonics set for Kindergarten, 1st grade, and 2nd grade. Madison has a great love for books, so I wasn't surprised when she just got it! She learned her sounds in pre-school, and I got the books soon after she learned them all. She can read about 65 words now (yes, I counted)! I am always amazed at how fast children's brains absorb information! Go Madison!!
I forgot to add that Madison also learned how to hula hoop in May! She shakes her hips so hard and fast, and can keep it going for a few minutes! She wants to be just like her cousins Gabby and Paige who can both hula standing, sitting, walking, hopping, patting their heads, turning around, etc.
