This cold, cold morning all 3 boys ran their first official 5K! (But not Todd's first official 5K). I was signed up, and was going to push Katherine in the stroller and have Abbie in the front pack. I got started but the girls were freezing cold and Alex said he lost my cell phone, so I went to look for that, then took the girls back to the car and turned on the heater. Next time, I'll get a babysitter for the girls. (The phone was found, by the way!) Todd finished in 27 minutes, then went back to finish with Nathan, then went back again to finish with Alex. In this picture Todd is running with Nathan:
Nathan coming up to the finish line!A sprint to the finish! His other hand is holding up his pants. Poor kid, the whole race he was holding his pants up (literally):
While Nathan and I were waiting for Alex to finish, Katherine and Abbie were in the warm car. I turned around to see Katherine getting into my makeup. I went to open the door, and she had locked the doors!! So in this picture, she and Abbie are locked in the car and she is getting into my makeup. Crazy girl! She's at a very CRAZY stage. She finally unlocked the door for me. I love this picture- you can see me and Nathan in the relection, and Katherine in the car with my makeup open, trying to hide from me:
Here's her makeup job:
And she also dumped out her cracker snack all over the car:
All while cute Abbie slept. Yes, those are gloves on her feet. She had socks on but it was really cold, so I put my gloves on her feet too.
Here's Alex and his friend he made. He walked most of the way with this friend, but here they are running to the finish line. I love the look on this other kid's face:) (click to enlarge)

I'm so proud of my boys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
