Goodness, I am already 16 weeks (and 5 days). I had a doc appointment today. I heard the baby’s heartbeat. Forgot to ask how fast it was but it was nice to hear it. I am 150 lbs, only 1 lb gain from last month (4/28). My heart pressure was 115/60 or something like that. I had some blood work done. So far so good. Doctor is very happy with my progress. And so am I.
Month: May 2008
Yay Me…
I ran the Corporate Challenge today. 3.5 miles in 41:21. Not bad for being almost 16 weeks along. Last year, I ran this race in 35 plus minutes so it is not bad. I ran the first two miles non-stop and then I walked for about 1:30 min. Then I started running again and stopped when I saw the water station. Once I finished my drink, I ran all the way to the end. I am not a fast runner at all to begin with so my running was more like a slow jog. I am very proud of myself.
Afterward, we went to the company’s tent to eat some delicious pizza. Then we went home. Night, night!
Pssst…
I’m pregnant. Yes, you have read correctly. Diego is going to be a big brother. I am currently 15 weeks 5 days along. My EDD is November 7. We had decided not to find out what we are having. We can’t wait to meet the new addition.
Later!
Signed Up…
Well, I did it. I signed up for the Soldier Field 10 Mile Race. Eric is a little apprehensive about this because we would be arriving from Mexico the weekend before. I don’t think it will be such a problem. I will just keep running before we leave and I will run after we arrive. I will just have to run slow, right?
So Sad…
I know I shouldn’t complain but I’m on vacation but not THE vacation we were planning for. I’ve been on vacation since May 1 and won’t be back until May 19. *sigh* We would be in Mexico right now: Enjoying the weather, visiting family and going sightseeing. Oh well, we are now planning for next April/May.
So now, I am just hanging out with Diego. Today was horrible: rainy, windy and cool. Diego had an early nap. Once he woke up, it was sunny and he went out for a walk with my aunt. At least he went out and enjoyed the day.
Zoo Day…
Eric suggested going to the zoo this morning. It was supposed to be a great morning/afternoon weather wise. It supposed to get cooler and possible rainy this afternoon.
So after 9:45, we set off to Brookfield Zoo. It was truly a great day. It was sunny and warm. We saw the giraffes, penguins, birds, frogs, crocodile, baboons and whatever other animals we saw from the tram. Before we left, my aunt bought us some cold treats.
Diego was beat. We went to McD to get some chow. Diego ate two nuggets and once I hit the highway, he was knocked out. I was just so tired by the end of the day but it was worth the trip.
