Ferry Adventures to Victoria

Brent entered his 2nd triathlon of the season in Victoria on July 5th. We took the boys over on the ferry the day before to explore Victoria and have some time together as a family. The boys loved riding on the big boat, people watching, and just having an adventure. We did a little bit of exploring in parks and enjoyed the beauty of the ocean.

Brent had a fantastic race, finishing in 4th place for his age category, shaving 10 MINUTES off his previous triathlon this year. He's gearing up for one more race this season and inspiring all of us to keep active.

Latest Developments

We had our first glimpse of the newest Raabe today. Both Nate and Jadon had dating ultrasounds but I guess the third time around you realize the baby will grow and develop regardless if you know all the details about it. We waited until this babe was about 20 weeks to take a peek and will likely wait now until around the middle of November for baby to join our family. He or she is active, according to the ultrasound technician, but I don't feel a lot of movement yet. However, I also can't really recall the last time I sat down to relax or take notice of the child growing within! We decided not to find out the gender of this child. He or she was sitting pretty low in the pelvis, bum down and wanted to keep private things private anyways. The technician was able to capture 4 profile shots (which is 4 more than I have ever had). I am sharing only one with you as they all pretty much look the same.
