Today Nathan was involved in an interschool track meet. There were six other area elementary schools involved. The day started off with some big scary clouds and there were thundershowers in the forecast. Fortunately the weather co-operated although the wind was a bit chilly. I was really happy to be able to attend and watch Nate compete in two of his three events. He was in long jump, hurdles and high jump. I just knew those long legs would come to good use one day!
Here he is, pleased at punch with his ribbons. His best placing with 2nd in the hurdles. In a few weeks he'll advanced to the next track meet with the best of the best from all the district schools.
Liam reached yet another milestone. He's no longer in his infant car seat and I'm rejoicing! That thing was cumbersome and so heavy to lug around. I was really quite tired of it! He's now in his rear-facing convertible seat and he thinks it's pretty great. And on that note, I have an infant seat with base in perfect condition that needs a home. Does anyone know of a needy new mom or mom-to-be that would like to have it?

Oh man. Moving up from the infant car seat is truly a reason to rejoice. Those things are a pain!
Congratulations to Nate on his track meet success! :)
My girls never participated in track meets. I found out about them when Ben entered the scene and it was a lot of fun. He had so much enthusiasm. You just might be in this for a long time with three boys.
Way to go Nate!!
Good job Nathan!!!
Way to make good use of those long legs :)
Love Liam's little hand on His big Bro's face :)
i did the high jump when i was in elementary school, too. i loved it ... then didn't grow any taller than 5'4 1/2" so that was out. good thing it's ok to be short as a point guard in basketball. i loved track meets ... especially when my mom came to watch me. i'm sure he was very proud to have you there.
