SOLO - TEAM

Last saturday Lady and I cheered Kday on at the State Championship bike race of 2010. It was our first bike race with an official "crawler." I was scared. To top it off we didn't have the super pro support crew that consists of Kday's dad, Cid. He's my extra set of hands at the races. And of coarse I'm still getting used to the title of "Mom" added onto the previous title of "feed zone queen." So this race was my first time without any other mom's in the zone or Cid.



Lady and I did fabuloroso together. We're seriously becoming quite the team. We shlepped our chairs, coolers, chariot and all other essentials up the mountain and set up base-camp at the feed zone. Five minutes after the first "feed" Lady fell asleep in my arms in a matter of nano-seconds. Unbelievable. Never has she fallen so hard or so fast. Super rad.


Two hours later, 3 race laps and feeds later, five minutes after the last feed went out - Lady woke up. All smiles.

We survived and had so much fun doing it.


I freaking love this "mom" thing.

P.S. Kday took 4th. and Lady joined him at the podium.

Congrats to Kevin. Too bad we couldn't be in the feed zone with you. The twins are getting chubby and soo cute. We were in CA at my parents' house so I could take care of the babies and the kids could swim. Rich raced, but his chain broke after just a few minutes.
