Alright now we are on a ten week countdown. Ten weeks meaning, I'm at 26 weeks now and ten more weeks until 36 weeks, which is what my doctor hopes I will make it to.

I'm thrilled it's ten more weeks, I NEED A RUN!!!

Is that selfish or what! Give me a little grace though I've been running consistently since college and exercising since six, so a little grace is needed... Running can be addictive you know...and it definitely was a "love hate" situation for me (as the gals in Bakersfield can testify).

In any case, I have a goal, which is to do the Nike half in October of 2009, which is a fair goal.

I met a gal at church the other day with 12 month old twins (we've never met so many people with twins, there are tons of twins up here). Anyway, the gal said she ran marathons before twins and at about six weeks after giving birth she started running again (although it was tough) she stuck with it and just ran another marathon.

Okay so i will not be running a marathon, but Nike Half Fall of 2009 is a fair goal and if anyone wants to join me they are welcome.

Hey, just because we have kids doesn't mean we can not have goals and hobbies.

(Notice time...having a little issue with insomnia again tonight, i've actually done a lot better lately, but for whatever reason i'm up tonight).

BTW: For those that know us well know we were strongly opposed to the idea of ever owning a mini-van, but we bit our pride and took the plung over the weekend. We found a loaded Honda Odyssey in Petaluma and it was the exact color Jason wanted. We still can't believe we did it, but you know we really like the van. We looked and looked at different automobiles and finally God just provided the right one for our family.

On the side: Jason and I had this talk about saying we will never do things...every time we say we will never...ever...do something we always end up coming around to, so ENOUGH already.

Life is changing for us...and we are embracing the changes ahead.
