Born October 20, 2009 at 4:26pm...Iris Irene will be two months old in two days. Time sure does fly, that is no joke. I'm slowing getting it together. And after speaking to many moms I've got plenty of time, if ever, that I get it together.
The past two months have been a blast, maybe it's the lack of sleep, but fun nonetheless. Isaiah is a great big brother. He now says "good morning iris" every morning or even when she wakes up from a nap. He is growing so fast and talking so much it's wonderful.
November 22 we watched and cheered for Travis who competed in his 2nd Ironman. When I was on bedrest, that set his training back a bit, but he still did well. He was happy with his time of 13 hours 48 minutes, only 20 minutes slower than his first so I can only imagine what he would have done had he been able to train like he wanted. Guess we'll see for the next one but he hasn't decided when that will be.
As for me, today was the first day I have run since I found out I was pregnant. Over nine months ago...it wasn't pretty...and it's cold out, not freezing Minot cold, but still cold for running. I am contemplating doing a half marathon in May in Ft. Collins, Colorado. I got sucked in by the scenery. Our friends Ashley and Tim have signed up for it and when I looked at the "slightly down-hill" course, I thought...hmmm...I think I could do that. So we'll see...I need to get up to running 30 minutes straight before I can even think of running a schedule for the half. But I truly hope to get there by the end of January to start the actual training in February. I also want to start training for some sprint tris just to get me going but we'll see. Two kiddos and Travis' crazy schedule has me trying to be creative with training.
