{april}

lately....
berkeley has started swim lessons 3 days a week. this girl loves swimming!
she asks at 7 am if its swim lesson day and looks so forward to it. she always gets in trouble at lessons because she constantly swims off the step and is way too daring. i love watching her do something that she loves so much.
my beckham boy is finally walking. ok.... still like 50% of the time.
but he can take 50 steps if he wants to. my favorite is that he giggles the whole time he is walking because he thinks its the coolest thing. i give it one more week and he will be a full time walker.
thank goodness!
i have been having the best time training for a ragnar race in two weeks. its a relay race that starts in santa barbara and ends in dana point.
i am so incredibly excited for it.
running has been my new thing that i look SO forward to every day. it makes me
happy and it makes me feel good. it gives me that sense of accomplishment that i love too. but lucky me.....i have gotten really bad shin splints from running so much. so now, to actually run the race that i have been training for, i have to take a week off, and it is driving me nuts not being able to run. 2 more days and then i can get back to my new love.
todd is getting ready to head into finals. i think this semester has been pretty mild compared to the ones before, so i think it has been a little less stressful. but finals are always stressful....so im mentally preparing myself
for having him gone for the next month.
im loving this spring weather but im dreading what weather is to
come in the next month.....
happy spring!

shin splint advice: walk around on your heels for like 5-6 minutes. Do it at least once a day. It will hurt like the dickens but it will strengthen your shins and help so much. I had shin splints bad in High School cross country and this help SO much!
