a second helping of February



The new look has inspired me to do some posting. Here's an update on the Wyatts of la Petite Roche...

 

Landon will be 3 in July and is definitely coming out of his shell. Usually quiet and reserved, Landon's new favorite word is, "no". He is a daredevil but can quickly become a sweet little boy who cries for his mommy. He is Presley's shadow and knows the exact buttons to push to annoy her. He's a great sleeper, an ok eater and is giving me a run for my money when it comes to potty training.

 

Presley will be 5 this week. I can't believe we are parents of a 5 year old. She is so smart. She talks from the moment she wakes up until her eyes close at night. She loves school and is very particular about her wardrobe.

The first of March means it's time for the Little Rock Marathon, well in my case, the Little Rock Half Marathon. The thing about running marathons is that you register for the run 6 months in advance, train for 4 months and by the time it's race day you are wondering why you signed up to do it in the first place. I set out to beat my time from last year and run the race in under 2 hours so I could feel content with it being my last half marathon. The conditions were pretty rough with on-and-off rain, a bitter 15-20 mph wind and a 15 degree temperature drop. The odds were not in anyone's favor for setting record times and I ended up coming in at 2 hours and 24 seconds!
