  • 6 miles of walk/run...mostly walk! 

Well, I feel like crap and have felt like that for awhile now...can you guess what it could be from??  I'm pregnant!  Not even 2 months yet and my entire life has changed.  My body has been hijacked!!  For a great purpose though. :)  Some running days are great, some are bad.  Today was definitely one of the bad days.  Blah.  It still feels good to get out to get some fresh air (all of a sudden my small apartment seems so stuffy and cramped...and stinky!!!) and to move, but I'm glad I'm home and I think I'll take a nap...:)

Congratulations! I figured that you were, based upon the tendency to walk not run.

You are going to be an amazing mom!

Thanks Matt! Yes, running would be much different otherwise! I tried to hold out a little longer, but figured I should offer some explanayion (and mostly I was too excited to wait longer to share the news).

YAY!! I was wondering, but didn't want to guess :) Congrats!! When are you due? Aprilish? A perfect time! I love spring babies. Warm enough to get out of the house with them when they are tiny, but beware it may make them like nothing but going out for a walk :)

I'm glad you're feeling blechy - good sign that things are being hijacked well! I'm SO SO excited for you!!! Nice job keeping up even just the walking.

Thanks Rachel! Yes, May 10th. I'm excited about the date as well. :) And I agree...I hate it when I'm sick, but I hate the few times I'm not sick even worse because I get worried. Quite a love-hate relationship. =0)
