 I set Catie down for a minute...came back and she was asleep!  Slept on the couch for over an hour!

 Getting ready with Allie

 Lexie wanted to go to school too...next year will be hard on her when she's left behind

 A friend of ours in Lake Mills organized a race in honor of those who have babies in heaven called Miles of Hope for Mothers Who Mourn. Josh and Aaron ran (and won) the 1/2 marathon.  A group of friends from MLS walked the 5 mile with me.  Aubrey and Lexie ran the kids' race.

 Josh is walking the victory lap with Aubrey and Lexie in honor of our baby in heaven.

The End of October and into November!
