The Big Race!

Today Jack participated in a Tot Trot at Kris' school. It was a little event, but we enjoyed rallying around him.


Before the race Kris was trying to pump Jack up.

But when the race was about to start our little man wouldn't let go of Daddy.
It took some encouragement to get him running.


But he made it and got his green ribbon.
And finally Little Miss got to go to the "wee" (playground) she had been begging to go to.



Post-race Jack had some quality rest time with Pop Pop.


Then after watching the 5K race he felt inspired to run for it. He ended up running close to a mile when it was all said and done. Needless to say, he slept well for his nap this afternoon.

It was kinda cute...when he would finish a lap around the 5K trail he would pretend to take his "tag" off and hand it to me just like the finishers of the real race. He was watching closely.
