My Ironman succeeds again

Sunday, Mike finished the Lake Stevens 70.3.  He did so well and finished strong.  B ran for a bit with him at the end, just to keep his spirits up.  He seemed to appreciate it.  It was a fun weekend.  We were all a little tired, though, after getting up at 4:30 to accompany Mike to the start.  The ride home was relatively quiet.

Lake Steven's starting line.  7:00 AM

Mike finished his swim in 39 minutes.  That is so good.

One of many running loops.  Mike is the second one in the picture, not the first.  It is kind of a dark picture.  

We finished up all of the paperwork we need to for this step of the adoption process.  I called to find out all the details for filling out Mike and my visa forms.  I wanted to be sure I answered all the questions correctly.  It was sort of confusing, but the person I spoke with was very helpful, and now they are done and waiting for our provisional approval for our I-800.  Can't believe we could be traveling in September.  So cool.  We stopped by IKEA to pick up a dresser for the girls' room.  I think I will start getting their room all set up, but we don't know if G will be joining A right away or if she will be rooming with us.  We are open to doing what we need to do to get our baby girl adjusted to life with a family.  

After a swim at the Y, Mike and I took the kids on a "coffee" date.  We don't get the chance to hang as a family like that very often, but we enjoy it when we can.  

Have a great day.
