I don't have to stop and rest as much, but my times are slowly getting...slower.  I feel like my blood volume has doubled so when I run, it feels like I'm doing 9 or 10 pace but I'm barely doing 11!  Oh well.  I feel good when I'm running so that's all that matters right now. :) 

P.S. We close on our house this afternoon.  There goes the carefree life!  Replaced by a waterheater, a furnace, an a/c, a roof, appliances and anything else that will break at any minute!  Slowly putting on the chains...haha. :)

Well it has happened...to my running horror, I have a muffin top!  The kind that you can't suck in at all...yes, it's that bad.  I don't know where it is coming from because I think I eat less now that my stomach threatens a reversal if I eat a lot.  I decided that I would make a pair of my running capri's that are tight anyway a little more comfortable since I can always sew them back up later.  I cut the elastic band in a couple places and then during my whole 6.5 miles, they were so loose, I could barely keep them on.  Great times.

Sitting here resisting the major temptation to go on my planned Saturday morning run while the very hard working hubby sleeps.  We were at our apartment till 1am last night moving and we need to go back and clean so we still have a lot of work to do...hence the no running. 

We saw our baby for the very first time at our first ultrasound yesterday and it was the most amazing experience I've ever had.  I knew it would be great from what I hear when everyone else experiences that, but wow!  I would travel to the end of the earth and back for that baby!  It was kicking it's feet and moving it's hands and it was SO CUTE!!!!  It can do all that and it's only 9 weeks old!  I can't stop thinking about it.  When I saw him or her, the first thought I had was "I need to back off a little bit" hehe. :)  So I think I'll revise my goal to be 20-25 miles per week and rest a little more than I usually do.  I'm gonna be a mom!!
