I'm 5 months old!

Hello - sorry I've been away for a bit. The last couple of weeks have been very busy. I watched my first triathlon at Marine Corps Base Hawaii. I didn't really know what was going on . . . but the weather was nice and I was comfy in my stroller. In between naps I cheered daddy on.


Also, I turned 5 months old. To celebrate my big day, I ran my first 10k (and by run I mean I slept while mom and dad pushed me).

A photo finish! Luckily, we didn't take that guy out

Seriously, I was beat. All I could think about was breakfast. From now on you will be able to keep track of my miles . . . 6.2 so far.

My life's not all about race events, I relax at the beach too.

This month, I got all dressed up and ready to go

Then, I took my first official swim in the Pacific Ocean
I am definitely doing that again.

Last week, I had a very special visit with grandmom and grandpop Gallagher. I really enjoyed their company, especially story time.

I showed them my very fine motor skills with my new ball.

If I could just pick it up . . .

So much fun!!!!
That's it for now. See you later

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOMMY!!!!!

November 5th is my Mommy's birthday. She is turning 29! I am not even five months so that seems old but I don't really know yet. She is still making fun of Daddy who has a couple of years on her but, she is now in the final countdown to 30!

I have not been around that long but Mommy has already done SO MUCH for me it is crazy. She was there at the beginning and didn't have a lot of help and besides some outfits that I would rather forget (See Elmer Fudd picture below) she has been awesome. She has taken me to the beach, swimming, running, across the country on a plane and to so many cool places.

But my favorite is times like in this picture when I am all tuckered out at the end of the day, Mommy is always there to snuggle and take care of me.

I hope she has a great day. She is one special Mom. I love you Mom!

Happy Halloween

My first Halloween was so much fun!

I wore a "spooky" outfit.
A shirt from Grammy
And a bib from Great Aunt Linda and Uncle Ron

My friends from daycare and I had a parade through the hospital where I was born and then a party with games and coloring. What do you think of my costume?


I also went trick-or-treating! My first stop was Aunty Denise and Uncle Jeff's house. I loved their jack-o-lantern!
I couldn't stop smiling!


I also made it to Aunty Brooke and Uncle Paul's house - what a treat! Pictures from my second stop will be added shortly . . .
