Life After Brecken

Two and a half months after Brecken was born, I finished my Master's Degree from Baker University.  I was so thankful to be done and cross off one more item from my list of things I wanted to accomplish in my lifetime.

This meant that John had more time to compete in triathlons.  When Breck was 10 months old, I took him on his first plane ride to watch his Daddy compete in the Ironman Louisville, Kentucky.  What a cool experience!  I definitely had a new appreciation for the Ironman competition after that race...these people are nuts!  A 2.4-mile swim, 112-mile bike and a 26.2-mile run...need I say more?  The race ended at Fourth Street Live in downtown Louisville and we were so happy when John crossed that finish line!

We continued traveling and living our life.  Then we decided that it was time for baby number two.  A few months later, we found out that we were pregnant again.  This time, with a healthy baby girl!
