I think the pregnancy stupids must still be lingering in me. Yesterday I signed the hubby and I up for the Disney World Goofy's Race & Half Challenge. Here is the link: http://disneyworldsports.disney.go.com/dwws/en_US/events/eventDetail/detail?name=WdwMarathonDetailPage&pid=pip-0-2 Am I going to survive a half marathon one morning and turn around a finish a full marathon the next morning????? My brother-in-law and hubby talked me into this. On the one hand I am excited as all get out. On the other hand I am terrified. Not to mention that we will be taking an 18 month old along with us. Good thing Papa, Grandma, and many Aunts and Uncles are going along because we will probably need to pass along baby duty to them for the most part for a few days.
With this big race in mind the plan is to run a half marathon this spring and a full marathon this fall. In addition I want to do several sprint tris during the summer. I have a feeling that by this time next year I will be thoroughly exahusted! I just hope I can stay injury free.
Yesterday my new treadmill arrived. My old one finally felt my last running step. The plastic under the belt and the padding under the belt broke a week and a half ago. I've been going through running withdrawal. I would have run outside but of course it is too cold and of course it snowed another 3 inches today. OH WINTER GO AWAY GO AWAY, I REALLY DON'T CARE IF YOU COME BACK ANOTHER DAY!
Sam update, she is now sitting up unassisted. This has been awesome. She will sit and play with toys and is finding it easier to keep herself entertained. She also loves her Jumparoo, so much so that she tries to jump all the time now even when you are holding her. She was 14lbs 9oz at her last Dr. appointemnt (7 months) so she is now in the less than 10% bucket for weight. She just doesn't really show an interest in solid foods until her evening feeding where she packs in 4TBS of otameal cereal made with 2 oz of formula or breast milk and approx a whole jar of fruit. She usually finishes up with at least two more oz of formula or breast milk.
Sam is doing excellent and she gets cuter and cuter every day. That said, Travis & I really have been itching to get out a bit. We just need to find something to do that we can take baby along. Any suggestions besides dinner out. I'm hate spending money on dinner out!
I better sign off for now....time to feed Sam. I'm crossing my fingers that she doesn't bite me. That is another thing, I don't know how people breastfeed exclusively after their baby gets teeth. She bit me a few days ago and it hasn't stopped hurting. At least everything is still attached and no blood was lost. :)
