Apologize for not being more timely in my postings; however, Justin and I were enjoying a little weekend getaway to Yosemite this past weekend. It was wonderful. Not only was it partly subsidized by work (I went to a conference while there), but the weather was a perfect 70 degrees, sunny, but cool. Very relaxing although I have to laugh at my decreased exercise tolerance. We went for a short, easy trail ride (and I use the word trail loosely) and you would have thought I was climbing a peak on the Tour de France. Whew, it was a work out. So the following day, I thought we'd take it easy with a short hike. It was short, and again, I was sucking wind. Justin had to laugh. I even took time to find a large downed tree that I could lay out on and put up my feet for a few minutes. I'm going to blame it on the altitude.
On the baby side of things, Baby J is one active little girl. Kick, kick, kick, rumble, rumble. She gets particularly active when we're watching football! (Go Giants by the way). Whenever I sit down for a few minutes, particularly in the evening, she decides it's time for her exercise routine. Everyday, the movements are getting a little stronger. Can barely feel them through my tummy, but I sure feel them on the inside. Also, I believe I spoke a little too smugly about my jeans fitting in my last posting because boy, that is history. I am amazed at the rate of my growing belly. Bring on the stretch maternity pants. Though we're swamped with work and the push into getting our kitchen remodelled, I don't think I have a choice but to go to the mall to get a couple pairs of pants so I have something other than scrubs and pajamas!
You'll notice a few new pictures. The first a short video of our ultrasound from a couple weeks ago and some pictures of the my belly at Yosemite - I think it could be called "Baby Half Dome"?
Lots of love to all
SJ

Just saw the pictures. So wonderful. Suzanne and Justin. Can't thank you enough for sharing like this. It is so nice to see but also hear your musings, if that is the right word and spelling. thanks thanks thanks. Jim and Laurie.
I read somewhere (when pregnant with Owen) that walking around with baby on board takes as much energy as carrying yourself piggy back all day. Pointed this out to Alex when he laughed at me for not keeping up on a walk. Suggested to him that to better understand -- he might like to carry me piggy back the rest of the way. :)
