May

May is going to be such a good month!  And heres why:

Spring is in the air and the sunshine is coming out a little more than we've seen in the past few months.  I am so excited for summer.  The pool.  The beach.  and everything else that comes with summer! 

Millie has her first eye appointment with her new doctor here.  I am so anxious for it.  I've been waiting to get her in for so long.  And it's finally here!  I have many unanswered questions for him.  And I can't wait to get her checked out.

Mother's day is on Sunday.  I can't believe I'm a mom.  and that this holiday is for me.  And my mom.  And all the other moms out there.  Brings tears to my eyes.  

I am running a 25k this month.  That's 15.5 miles!  The only other races I've done are half marathons.  What's 2.5 more miles when you've already ran 13?  We'll see how it goes.  I am excited for it though! 

My sister and her babe are coming to visit me!!!  She booked her flight last night, and is coming for a whole week.  I know it won't be long enough, but I am beyond ecstatic!  It can't come fast enough. 

I have become quite the cook since living here in Michigan.  Either that, or I am now a mom and I am realizing that that's just what moms do.  I have some great recipes to share!  YUM!

Cason and I will be married three years this month!  Huzzah!  

And Cason will have a birthday!!  I am so excited for it!  Although, he is getting quite old!  :)

Oh!  and Happy Cinco de Mayo today!  We celebrated by wearing our mustaches-crooked, eating burrito bowls (so good!) with a blood orange fancy drink, and fried ice cream for dessert.  Oh it was yum!

I wouldn't mind if May was longer than 31 days.  I just know it will go by too quickly.  But I am soaking it all in and I can't wait for all these special dates!  Stay tuned for updates!
