TSS: May 2013 Recap

Reader

Gosh, didn’t I JUST wrap up April? May FLEW by. Maybe I can blame that for the really, really awful reading month I had. In May, I read:

 

 

  • Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell
  • The End of the Affair by Graham Greene (audio)
  • Life after Life by Kate Atkinson (audio)
  • If I Loved You, I Would Tell You This (audio)

I also reviewed The AbsolutistThe Tao of Pooh; and Scarlet and posted by Armchair Audies Wrap-Up.

Dancer/Runner

I haven’t been to a dance class in just about two months. Life was so busy and I really am not that happy with the class I’ve been going to (they let teenagers into the adult class and I am getting much too old to be dancing with teenagers). My teacher, whom I adore, is leaving and, even though she won’t be teaching anymore, I am actually hoping to try a new class with her this summer.

I got the all-clear to start running again two weeks ago so I am slowly making my way back. I bought some new shoes that are AMAZING. My shin splints haven’t made a single appearance and I am just thrilled. I actually ran a 5k yesterday, but that was part of June so you get to hear about that next month.

Mom

Well this was a big month for me as a mom. Evan turned one (see a video of his first year) and we threw him a huge party (see a preview in my Pin It & Do It wrap-up post). He has really started walking now and I think I have to admit I have a toddler now. Which makes me happy and sad. This parenting thing is always a little bittersweet. I love watching him grow but I don’t want him to do it too fast.

I also kept taking pictures, as usual. See photos from a day at the park and some more random pictures of Evan.

    It is so exciting to have a baby turn 1! Treasure every moment since the years just seem to fly by after the first one.
