Morgan brought this home from school the other day and said, "yellow is for daddy, pink is for me, purple is for mommy, and blue is for Jackson". She's so sweet. And of course she put herself right next to her daddy.

Morgan dancing

Morgan does tap/ballet on Monday's. She loves it. She does really well with the ballet part. We aren't allowed to be in there watching but I snuck a peak today :)

Movie in the Park

We took the kids to see Gnomeo and Juliet in the park. They had lots of fun running around while the adults watched the movie!!

Morgan's turn for face painting.

She wanted a purple heart.

Just a Swinging

A few weeks ago Jackson and I went to the park while Morgan was at school. Of course we spent the whole time on the swings!!

I love this age! He's so much fun!!

Fight Gone Bad 6

Today was Fight Gone Back 6 (you know, the thing I've been begging everyone to give me money for LOL). We raised money for Special Operations Wounded Warriors, CrossFit Kids and Camp Patriot. I was able to raise $500 thanks to many great friends, my parents, and my grandpa. Honestly, when I started asking for donations, my goal was $150. I thought it was pretty ambitious. I never imagined I could make it to $500, so thank you to everyone who donated!


I had my usual fan club there. Nikki, her sister Taylor, and Shelly came with her kids. Nikki and Taylor surprised me with these awesome shirts and banners!

This guy was writing an article for the Fort Hood newspaper. He interviewed me and took some pictures. He also cheered for me the whole way through :)

This is my coach, April. She's incredible. She has brought me so far since my first day at CrossFit. She is so strong and such an inspiration to her team. I love her most of all because she's not afraid to yell at me to push harder.

So nervous!!

Waiting for my time to come.

I started with the Push Press. 55 lbs up over head as many times as possible in 1 minute.

Then the row machine. Row as far as you can in one minute (no rest between each station).

Then it was wall balls (pictures further down).

Just breath!!!

Then sumo deadlift high pulls (pictures further down) and box jumps as many times as possible in 1 minute. I had to step up. Jumping was just too much!

I'm pretty sure I was telling April I couldn't do it anymore, but she made me keep going :) We went to each station 3 times.

The wall balls. Squat and throw the 14 lb ball 10 feet up the wall. As many times as possible.

My feet were coming off the ground. It was the only way I could get it up there.

Sumo deadlift high pulls. 55 lbs floor to chin as many times as possible in 1 minute.

Finally done (after 17 minutes) and being swarmed by cheerleaders.

Rosalinda is another one of my greatest inspirations.

Team Katie :)

Jackson's Birthday Party, and My SURPRISE Party!

I decided last minute that I should have some kind of "theme" for Jackson's little party. We went with sports.

I went to pick up the pizza and when I got home, Shelly had decorated for me :) She's so tricky! I was suprised and SO EXCITED!!

I was surpised with gifts too! I have the best friends EVER!

Gift card for a pedicure! YAY!

Oh Shelly....she knows me too well!

Bath bubbles to help me sleep better :)

"Ephent"

Jackson LOVES steering wheels!

He wouldn't put it down!

Awesome Cricut Cartridge case!

Now he has a microphone to sing "Rolling in the Deep" into.

Singing Happy Birthday. He loved it!

Unsure about the candles

He blew both candles out by himself.

SURPRISE!!!! Ice Cream cake for me!!

I loved sharing my Happy Birthday with my baby boy!

Still doing the crazy face on demand!

Nikki and her sister, Taylor. They didn't have sports jersies or shirts, so they made their own!

Me and my angels. (Well one was a grumpy angel)

The after party...
