Prego Friends

So I know about a million pregnant people right now... which is fun.

I've got one girlfriend here, Sarah, who has been such a great connection. She is about a week and a half behind me- so we're on the same track as far as development, weight gain, nursery decorating, etc.

Here are a couple of pictures of us last Saturday at the Farmer's Market in Olympia. Unfortunately it's so sun-shiny outside that it made some pretty harsh shadows on our faces. Still... the bellies come through nice and clear, don't they?

My running shoes are acting as walking shoes these days, and it's the weirdest thing: walking three miles FEELS like running five miles. I'm about that fatigued at the end of the walk, and my feet are puffy like after a run, and my thighs feel like I ran the whole thing up hill!

I'm not complaining, because it doesn't really hurt. It's just uncomfortable. I think I just am a tad worried about what it will feel like in a couple of months. One more trimester, as of Thursday! Hooray! My prediction is that I will continue to walk, because I go crazy without some kind of exercise, and I will just walk more slowly (As to avoid that rather unpleasant sensation of my uterus wanting to fall out. I swear it feels like that now... everything is loosening up).

I'm really looking forward to running again, running so hard I'm drenched in sweat from my hair to my feet. I dream about it regularly... some pregnant women dream about their hot doctors. Not Liz... running is what does it for me.

Anyhoo... that's just the latest.
