Catoctin Wildlife Preserve
So this past Saturday we packed everyone up and headed up to the Catoctin Wildlife Preserve. Our membership expires in another week, and we won't be renewing this year, so we wanted to get one last visit out of it. We saw all of the animals that were out, there are still a few that are indoors until the weather gets a little warmer.
It was Olivia's first time being big enough to look at things.

A Whole lotta nothin!
We have done practically nothing this year. Nate goes to school, Graham, Olivia and I just do our thing. It's too cold to do anything else! So here are some random photos from the past month or so.
First, Olivia is getting more and more mobile every day. She can now move herself all over the living room with a combination of rolling, and pulling herself forward with her arms. The pulling herself forward is something that just started this week. So this brings a new level of baby proofing that I will need to do, and every day I think with dread about another thing that she'll be getting into within the next few weeks. She is particularly drawn to the DVD, receiver, etc in the entertainment center. nuts.
Just a random of Nate, Graham took this one.
We have diaper pics of Nate and Graham, but not so many of Olivia, so in the spirit of fairness, here are some naked baby pictures. :)
In other non kid related items. This week I signed up for a bunch of races. I am signed up for the Frederick Half Marathon in May, the Baltimore 10 miler in June, and at the request of my running partner, the Baltimore Marathon in October. The thought of doing 20 mile training runs is not something I'm looking forward to, but maybe, just maybe since I lost 20 lbs training for my last half marathon, I'll lose another 20 training for this one, and then since the marathon is twice as far I expect to lose another 40 lbs training for that. Of course, if I lose 60 lbs in the next 6 months I'll probably be in trouble, but well, the fact that I'll be running a marathon probably will put me in trouble anyway! So stay posted for training updates. So far things are going really really well!

The Dress
Does this dress look familiar?
Yup, it's the same one she wore way back when after she was blessed. She was about 2 1/2 months old in this picture. Now, she's 8 1/2 in the top picture. She has grown a little bit, just not too much. That's OK, I'm glad that she can still wear it, (and so is Grandma after all the work she put into it!)
