Busy week..I'm officially a DD...

Our little peanut is already a runner!

We were able to do a great deal last week, although Conrad doesn't like to have too many plans after work...but who can blame him for that? On Monday I cooked dinner for a couple of our good friends, and then on Tuesday those same friends took us out for my belated birthday dinner. I think it is good to do as much as we can now, because in no time flat we will be preoccupied with a baby :). Then we went to a going away party on Wednesday, for one of my coworkers. She is such an amazing person, and will be missed greatly. She is off to bigger and better things in the state of Texas. 

On Thursday we got to watch the NBA Finals...wohoooo! I enjoyed watching Mr. James ruin it for his team. Why was he the only player with severe cramps? Strange. 

Then on Friday Con and I went to lunch with some friends in Santa Fe, and they came back down to ABQ later in the evening to get SMOKED in bowling, by ME. Okay, normally I wouldn't brag, but I am not very good usually, and I almost scored a 150! 

I've agreed to be a permanent DD, but I never knew how much of a drag it was to watch other people drink and act like crazies. Actually, it isn't entirely unbearable because I get to make fun of everyone the next day, and it is actually entertaining to watch two tall white guys sing (or try to sing) Gangster's Paradise on karaoke! I just get so tired when it gets close to midnight. I think midnight is my limit. I don't know how some people do it. I had a friend who could go clubbing until closing time when she was pregnant. I don't think I am that much of a trooper though. No, I take that back. I am NOT that much of a trooper. 

We went hiking yesterday with some good friends, and we had a lot of fun. We went to the Sandias and hiked up for a little over an hour, and back down again. I am glad that I am able to still do normal things. I guess I am only 14 weeks along though! 

When it came to working out for the week this is what I did: walking, elliptical, jogging on the treadmill, Body Pump, and the hike. 
A thing that I added to the schedule this week was a long walk in the beautiful Bosque with my good friend, Ashley. She is expecting identical twin baby girls, so it is so nice to be able to walk and talk pregnancy with her. She is a wealth of knowledge. We will start taking weekly pics, and we are going to start our very own club: The Stroller Moms!  :) :) :) 
I would like to run a little more outside this week, and go to Body Pump twice, instead of just once. Another thing, my diet hasn't been the healthiest, although I have been cooking more. When friends are in town, or friends invite us out to eat I don't know how to order healthy. I mean, I do, but I have no self control. Mark my words, this will be my downfall. 

Ashley is also a great person to follow. Her blog URL is:

I stole this from Ashley, and some other online bloggers:

How far along: 14 weeks, 2 days
Total Weight Gain/Loss: 7 pounds already! I think it is because I was training for a marathon, and then stopped. It has nothing to do with the food I've been consuming :D.
Maternity clothes: Not yet. I can still fit into my pants!
Stretch marks: Just little old ones...
Sleep: I have been getting up one time less each night to use the bathroom. So my sleep has started to get a little better the past couple of days. It was very interrupted though for a couple of weeks.
Best moment last week: When Conrad kissed my stomach...FINALLY! :D
Movement: Not yet.
Food cravings: Lemon with salt...I know, not the best thing.
Gender: Don't know yet, though I think it may be a boy. Actually, I go back and forth. I can't imagine having a boy for some strange reason, but I think that since a lot of my friends are having girls, then I must be having a boy!
Labor signs: Zilch, thank goodness.
Belly button - in or out? In...wait a minute, will it go out? WAAAA....
What I miss: Red red wine! And coffee...
What I am looking forward to: Finding out what we're having at our gender reveal party! :) 

Milestones: I made it to the second trimester! Yeee---haw!
