One of our favorite things...
Check ups!
We love seeing how well the boys are doing 
and knowing that they are staying on track.

Elio-  31lbs and 50th percentile
39 inches and 85th percentile

Nico- 28.4 lbs and 75th percentile
34 1/2 inches and 99th percentile

They boys wont go back for check ups for a while. Elio's next one is when he turns 4, and Nico when he turns 2. Oh, they are growing up too fast.

I did it, I made it 39.3 miles!
It was a long two days, but it was really fun and inspiring. I was a little nervous doing the walk by myself, but I met some wonderful people along the way.
Last year I had four blisters by the end of the first day however this year I somehow lucked out and didn't get a single blister.

 
The boys dropped me off and met me at the finish line.

 So excited to start walking!
 If you click on this picture you can see how many walkers there were. I think there were a few thousand.

Almost there!
 I've never been happier to cross a finish line.
 I even got this wonderful surprise when I got back.

With everyone's support we raised over $4.2 million! 
Thank you to everyone who supported me!

This is such a wonderful cause, I hope to continue to walk for many more years.

This is the big weekend I have been looking forward to all year!
It's the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer.
I've raised well over my goal of $1800.00, I'm at $2230.00 and I'm expecting a few more last minute donations!
Woohoo!

Let's hope this year turns out better than last year. Getting pulled from the walk with 5 miles left to go, was super disappointing. I can tell you, I learned my lesson and plan on drinking LOTS more water.

Wish me luck...39.3 miles here I come!
