Weekend Fun!

There hasn't been a whole lot new in the Noel household. We have been enjoying the gorgeous weather playing in the yard, going for walks, and trips to the park. We can't wait to have our privacy fence put in so Adrian has more freedom to run around without mommy or daddy standing right by. Adrian just loves to dart for the road, which we have to watch her like a hawk. We just got our fence permit and will be placing our order this weekend, hurray!!

I love Adrian's AWESOME shirt, got it for $3 at the Tanger Outlet a month ago, it is crazy to think that she fits into 2T clothes already.

As you can see Adrian's hair is a little crazy...I still refuse to get her a hair cut. I prefer she doesn't have bangs, but it is getting hard to keep it out of her face because she never leaves in barrettes. Hopefully ponytails or pigtails this summer will work.

Here is our little dare devil, I have honestly given up on trying to keep her off of the end tables. She loves going from the couch to the table to the recliner and back. I have just learned to not have any valuables around and then what happens...happens. Not that I really ever had any :)

I think Adrian already has the cleaning bug, she loves cleaning up water. Below you can see her trying to get water out of her sippy and then she wipes it off her toes right away.

This past Sunday Jamie and I ran a lovely race in Valley Junction, "Earth Day 5k". The weather was beautiful and it was just a really nice race. If you are wondering what we are holding it is a tomato plant, which we got for competing in the race. In addition to the plant we got our nice organic cotton tees, a cute tote which I will use for the farmer's market this year, and a water bottle. So, if you are looking for a nice race this is the one to do.

After the race there were even vendors selling items and kids activities as well. Two thumbs up!

Well, I would be lying if I said that wasn't the only reason we loved the race...it was so flat! We have never ran a race that had no hills and the weather was perfect!! Jamie and I both got our personal best too, 21:38 and 24:11. DAM-to-DAM here we come!!!

Little Bit of Everything!!

Here are some pics from the last couple of weeks, I haven't been real good about taking pics and keeping the blog updated.

Last Sat. we went on a walk to the park, Adrian enjoyed being a spectator to a little tennis match.
Adrian is hard to keep up with, she loves to walk/run around, she cries when we put her in the wagon or the stroller, she would rather be on the move.

I snapped a photo of Adrian's Easter basket, however what I didn't know was that when I got her up for church she would have a fever of 101.4 on Sunday. So, our Easter plans changed a little, but we got lots of cuddle time :)

Adrian has found out how to use her teeth as a little opener, she will puncture the applesauce and suck it out of the container.

Such a cute smile, you wouldn't guess she was bit yet again by her little friend Tessa at the babysitters. If you look at the 2nd pic down you can see the top 4 teeth marks and even the 2 bottom teeth. Adrian luckily hasn't turned into a bitter yet, she tends to be the one they all nibble on. Adrian isn't a perfect little tot though, she does her share of pushing and stealing toys.

I put Adrian down for a nap and this is what I openned the door to find :) Lets just say I didn't put Adrian in an off the shoulder onsies!

Friendly St. Patricks 5K run 2 weeks ago. Jamie, Kris, & Matt after the race waiting in Sully's Irish pub for the race results.

Little chilly before the race, but we had fun and it was good to get the 1st race of the year out of the way. This year was much easier, I remember running this race last year and it was my first race since having Adrian and I was miserable. Just the difference that a year makes, in 2009 I got 29:24 mins and this year I got 23:24.

Jamie, mom, and I ready to leave the competition in the dust!!
