Time


I wish I could blog/write while I run. I do my best thinking while running and I would be able to provide more interesting content here. I also want to start a sports blog but again, I just don't know how to squeeze that in. I keep thinking I'll figure out how to juggle everything but so far, no luck. My day starts at 5am and ends somewhere between 10pm-11pm and I don't even have to commute!!! I go from being frustrated to telling myself it's not a big deal and life goes on and to just hang in there and take it one day at a time. It's a daily conversation I have with myself.

May is/was a blur - I made it through 2 work audits and major home repairs. The last 2 weeks included a long weekend at the beach and a visit from my sister. Isle of Palms was very nice although the water was still freezing cold. Hadley didn't care one bit - we kept having to get her out so her lips would return to a normal color! I think our next beach trip will be to the Gulf though. I did get to run a 5k they held on the beach so that was fun. Competitive Amanda could not run this race (although under normal circumstances I think she would have won for the girls)...however Pregnant Amanda waddled along and did not walk it at all :) Getting a high five from Hadley at the finish was awesome. We had a fun visit with Aunt Devon as always and she'll be back in July after her new niece arrives.

Hadley has her big girl furniture and we just need to put up the rails; then we can start the transition. Maybe we'll put that on our "to do" list for this weekend. I also need to do some research on BPA free bottles...assuming this child will actually take a bottle unlike her big sis. Then I need to get some newborn clothes that are for summertime. We are running out of weekends to get this stuff done!!

OK I've had to stop and start this entry too many times so I guess it's goodbye for now.

You look great and good job on the 5k! I'm with you, thought about starting a new blog to post my daily kid activities...but don't know that I can find the time - and I'm not even working now!

Oh - and the girls call my zits and freckles boo-boos too. Nothing like having a child point out all my imperfections, lol!

Adorable pictures, as usual. I don't see how you do it all! Hang in there, you'll have maternity leave soon, and I hope you'll take advantage of it! Maybe we could get together during some of your "down time".
