Why Pictures

This sounds odd, but thank goodness for these belly pictures every week and a half.  It’s a record of a shrinking size that is just noticable with that time gap.  I go through phases of realizing that shirts and tops seem a little looser, then feeling like nothing is coming off at all.  You can tell what [...]

Arm And Core Exercises

Who needs weights when I can do baby lifts?  Remmer loves to push off on my lap with his little feet and strong legs so that I lift him up in the air.  We call these “jumps.”  He loves it and will push off many, many times in a row.  I guess it wouldn’t [...]

Pictures

All right.  Now we have all the Remy Zin pictures in the photo section of the website here.  This is where I’ll post new stuff instead of on the blog.  Be sure to check out today’s shots from this morning when he was wearing the cute “I Love Daddy” outfit with a fuzzy giraffe [...]

The Many Faces of Hunger

Today, a beautiful fall day, when I was out riding I noticed a difference.  Actually, the difference happened before I was out on my bike.  It was a hunger and desire to be out that exceeds the mild, hey I’d like to get some exercise because I know I’ll feel better afterwards.  I rode to [...]

39 Weeks Update

Today marks 39 weeks and still Remy stays inside all cozy and cuddly.  I have been feeling different the past few days, with more than usual pelvic pressure over the cervix, wild variations in fatigue and energy levels, and a general view of the world as a place with too-small spaces, too-heavy items and [...]

Always Check The Weather

It was foolish on my part, but I don’t think I looked at the weather forecast since last Thursday. From that vantage point, it looked to be a hot, rain-free weekend. Good for getting some commuting to the store riding in, which is what we planned to do today.

After a morning of painting [...]

Why Bike Fit Is So Important

I’ve been riding outdoors lately, mostly on the cruiser bike and occasionally on the cross bike. Today, my window of riding opportunity was while it was raining, so I got on the powercrank-bedecked tri bike on the trainer. That tri bike fits me great…when I’m not pregnant, that is.

There might have been a [...]

The Size Of A Small Watermelon

I bet you thought I was pregnant, didn’t you?  An unnamed photog caught these surprising shots that tell the real tale.

 

Ha ha, just kidding!  I’m just carrying a 29 1/2 week watermelon sized uterus everywhere I go. 

 

Time to go eat watermelon now.  [...]

Keeping It Cool

We almost made it. The Crumpler and I were trying to hold out on turning on the air conditioning until June. It was 10pm last night, after a long, sticky day of sweating, and we totally caved. Close enough.

Speaking of coolness, I’ve been making some headway on the nursery underwater mural. It’s not [...]

Brick Day

What another beautiful day and I’m off for a run the dirt part of the American Tobacco Trail portion off Massey Chapel.  Now that I’ve got a commuter bike, I decide I should most definitely commute to run.  Sez Gary, “Oh, you’re doing a brick?”  Ha!  Well I guess I am.  I’ve ridden my [...]
