March for Babies

We did it! In the cold and wind (with even an occasional flurry), we walked 4 miles. Those babies are worth it! I did feel quite bad though, Amber was absolutely miserable. For the first three miles so cried, no screamed would be a better description. I carried her for at least 2 1/2 miles (yup, I got a good arm workout). She had not been herself since last Thursday, so, today, Joe and I brought her in. Explanation for her misery on Sunday (remember it was WINDY), DOUBLE ear infection. Poor baby, guess I don't get mom of the year...taking a baby out for a 4 mile walk in the cold (less than 40 degrees) and wind. My mom was joking through the walk- Who is more stubborn? The mom or the baby?

Around mile 3, she FINALLY gave in and fell asleep!


Kaylee and Leah walk the entire 4 miles, Thea walked most of it, and Delila tried to walk for some of it! Amazingly enough, Leah was not even tired at the end of the walk, she wanted to go to Adventure Park. So, after the walk, we went to Adventure Park for almost 2 hours. She certainly got her exercise!





Our group - Amber (sleeping), Kaylee, Jaclyn, Andrea, Thea, Barb, Tiffanie, Leah, and Delila (sleeping)




Other weekend activities:



Friday night: Leah wanted to watch some of the Royal Wedding Coverage. We watched a special on NBC from 7-8 that summed it up, but the girls just couldn't make it to the end! Yep, we know how to do a Friday night!! Leah did mention that she wanted a dress like Kate's!



Saturday: After raining all day, if did clear up late afternoon, but was still quite windy, so we made the best of it, and flew the kite. Leah was a great kite master!
