adventure time

Keegan has training for work in Cleavland beginning tomorrow and lasting until October 16th. Instead of hanging around here without him we decided Ava and I would have our own little trip and then meet up with Keegan. So Ava and I head to NC tomorrow about 45 mins before K heads to Ohio. I will be solo parenting for the week and half we are in NC. But we have some exciting things to look forward to like seeing my parents and brother and sister as well as a visit from Carol (which I am so looking forward to - it has been since the wedding), hanging out with Kathleen, seeing some other durham people perhaps (laura i hope), and the woods. Finally, Keegan and I broke down and splurged on a really fancy wonderful jogging stroller and I am in love with it. I can run with it and hike in the woods... it is that kinda good. The bummer is that Ava is not the biggest fan .... I would like to think it was just stroller strides this exercise class that we do together and a bunch of other moms (like run with stroller and then do lunges but instead of counting sing itsybitsie spider) but I am still waiting for her to come around. But she will i guarantee it.... i will make her like it. Anyway back to the trip... so we are in dtown till the 11th and then Ava monster and I will head to Cleavland to check out the city and see Keegan when he is not working (which will be a lot).
Did I mention that Ava is sick... she has a crummy crummy cold so I am a little more nervous than I thought i would be for leaving K for 11 days but I really should not complain I have a friend who is solo parenting for a year while her husband is in Iraq and I just can not imagine how she does it. SO Laura you have me inspired to be tough.
I will post when i can from the trip.
