So this Sunday October 2nd Morrisa and myself will be running in our first 5k. We planned on really training hard and seeing how good we could get before this 5k. Well things came up here and there and well before we knew it the weekend of the 5k has arrived. We will still be running non the less, well we'll run and walk some probably but we will finish the 5k. We've set a goal of 45 minutes and I think we can push through and do it.
The cause behind the race we are running in is something that is something we strongly back. It is being held by the Tinina Q. Cade Foundation which is a nonprofit organization that serves the needs of families battling infertility. Through education and outreach they support families struggling with infertility as well as educating outside communities about related issues. They also provide financial assistance to families pursuing infertility treatment or domestic adoption through a grant they have established. They have partnered with Shady Grove Fertility which is most near and dear to us because without them we wouldn't have our amazing little boy.

So be thinking of us come Sunday. I know some of you may have funny images in your head of me running a 5k. I may go dressed like Forrest when he ran across the country. I assure you I will finish though.
Something aside from the whole running thing. Our son Noah has started something new the other day. He's now finishing off his sentences say "you think so Mama" or "you think so Dada". It's too funny. Must be something he's picking up from a kid at day care, but it's too funny.
