Okay, I've never posted this many times in one day in my life, but I ran across this while checking my email tonight and felt I needed to post and update to my earlier Silver Comet Safety post.
From the famous Joe Reger an update from the horses' mouth; Joe called the Cobb County police: http://www.joereger.com/entry-logid1-eventid6620.log
Joe, thanks for taking the initiative!!

8 weeks to go!
We are officially 32 weeks pregnant...

wow, that means in two months or so, we'll have another little boy in this house! For the most part, this pregnancy has been the same as my first in terms of "how I feel". The biggest difference is how little I've prepared for labor, delivery and taking care of the new little guy! There have been days when I've actually forgotten that I'm pregnant... I found myself planning a little end of summer trip in my head, when I realized it probably wouldn't be feasible considering in all likelihood I will have just given birth a week prior! The other time I forget is getting out of bed in the AM, I try to just jump out of bed but it doesn't work that way anymore... I swear it's like moving a whale shark :-D So what does all that mean? I'm two months away and fairly unprepared for bringing a new baby in the house. How does that swaddling thing work again? Where did that bottle sanitizer go? I know we have a bouncy seat somewhere in the basement? And, oh yeah, what do I need to pack in the diaper bag? Oh that's right, everything but the kitchen sink! :-D
Jason is getting anxious to be a big brother. He asks me everyday "when will he be big enough to come home?" He even includes him in our games... we fly in our "airplane" (jason's bed) to Japan on occasion and Jason decides which toys he will bring, last week he decided that he also need to pack baby toys for his little brother. The plane is getting rather full. I'm glad he's excited, but I still worry he's in for a big surprise when his little brother arrives and all he can do it stare into space and cry :-D
I'm sure we'll all get the hang of things after a few weeks or so... right?!?!

Living the Dream
I have the pleasure of editing/reviewing some of the posts on the all3sports.net site. This week Laura Sophiea has been sending her journal from her cycling tour in France, a little warm up to enjoying the Tour de France spectacle. This week she climbed col du Galibier and Alp d'Huez among others. Here is her story.
I cannot express how jealous I am of her adventures, especially as I sit here with pregnant belly growing bigger everyday. I haven't been on my bike on the road since I found out I was pregnant (dr. orders! I'm just too accident prone to take the chance) and I've started hating everyone I see out of the road!
As for me, I've been feeling well, still walking almost every other day, and riding the recumbent bike at the gym. The belly stopped fitting on my road bike about a month ago. I'm so excited that our gym is finally open! Yeah Lifetime Fitness! It is absolutely amazing! Plenty of bikes, tredmills, etc. available. I've even started, gulp, lifting weights, as they have the great machines, that are like bowflex on steriods. There are options for strengthening my hamstrings without worrying about balance or my belly getting in the way. The pool is great, the perfect temperature. Can't say enough great things about the place and most importantly, Jason LOVES going to the kids club while he is there so I don't have to feel guilty about working out!
