What is going on with me?

This morning Anne and I met for a 6 mile jaunt.  It was good, but a tad humid, and I am starting to have more trouble breathing, talking, and running all at once.  Ha!  I will have to get my “Working Out During the Second Trimester” post out here soon!  Things are definitely changing.

For example, the urge to tinkle for the first few minutes, even though I went twice before heading out the door.  This definitely doesn’t last long, but I hear it can get worse as you get bigger and the pressure bears down.

Overall, I am still making it to the gym or to run 5-6 days a week.  Last week 5, this week will be 5 again.

 

Who Likes The Time Change????

I am so not a fan!  It was just getting light near 6:15-20ish A.M. when they change it.  For runners, that is tragic.  I don’t generally feel safe running alone when it is dark, although I know other ladies in my area who do it….I am just uber paranoid.  Well, it was just getting light enough for me to get out and run alone, but now, with the time change…we are back to pitch black until near 7A.M.  I just can’t start that late, so I either run at the gym, or meet my SIL….which is at 5 freaking A.M. (EARLY when you have to drive 10 minutes to get there too!), or when Anne’s husband isn’t traveling…which is often.

I wish we just didn’t do the time change.  Honestly, I do not need it to be light until 9 P.M. EVER, which is inevitably what occurs as summer approaches.  Our days in Houston get pretty darn long.

And there I am!  My belly was showing….partly because it is showing and partly because I wore my maternity pants for the first time….and they don’t do anything to hide it.

Had lunch with an old friend whom I finally told (wanted it to be in person), and they insisted on getting a pic of me.  So, that is fun to share.

I need to be a more consistent picture taker, but, I’m not.  I am getting a new work phone and opted for an Iphone rather than a Blackberry…..so maybe you can expect more then!

Is it easier to upload straight from Iphone to your webpage?  Is that possible?  I am not tech savvy, so someone tell me!  What I usually do is save it to my laptop then upload here for you guys….pain in the booty!

Hope everyone is having a fab week.  I’ll be 22 weeks along this Saturday….so hopefully only 16 more weeks to go!  If our baby is still a bit ahead, 38 weeks might be enough!

  1. You can download the WordPress app on your iPhone and blog that way (which can be a pain, I’ve heard) – I typically just plug my iPhone into the computer, dump the pictures I want to use onto my hard drive, and roll from there. The images are really big coming straight off the phone, so I typically have to size them down anyway on my computer…sorry if that isn’t very helpful!! You’re looking great though! I have been in maternity pants for quite some time now…I’ll be lucky to remember how buttons and zippers work :)

  2. Totally agree on the daylight savings, really sucks for morning runners.

    Aren’t maternity pants amazing!!! Looking fantastic!
