Jon and I took a quick trip to the Nike outlet in San Marcos on Saturday. As usual, I didn't find anything for myself, but as I walked towards the men's side, on the way down the women's clearance sizes, I spotted them. Nike Lunartrainers in a women's size 5. Do you know how tiny a size 5 is? They looked like "model shoes" that I should put on my bulletin board or something. They are precious...and the perfect size for my niece Molly who started running cross country this year. They were also a very good price too, so Molly is the new proud owner. She is going to tear up the Beaumont Turkey Trot - watch out! Jon got a matching pair too.

I was soooooo excited to give them to her - her first pair of "real" running shoes. She was a little more preoccupied with finding her friends to trick-or-treat, but I think she still liked them.

Now, not to forget Kate, I needed to pick up a pair of shoes for her too because I couldn't leave her out of the shoe love. Jon actually picked the pair for her, and they were silver and pink. We gave them to her after she got back from trick-or-treating and she was beyond excited. It is so fun to give them gifts they get so excited about. I think she may have been the most excited about the fact that they were a whopping size 1 as opposed to her current size 13 shoes, but as long as she's happy, I'm good.

Ironman in verse

This is what I wrote and secretly put under everyone's doors tonight: The big day is almost here! Long it will be, but have no fear. You have put in miles and miles And will finish amidst numerous smiles. The hard work is over and done. Now is the time for nothing but fun. May your spirits be high throughout the day, And may nothing come along to stand in your way. Ironman is as much about the journey as the destination, And you will be rewarded for all of your determination. Hand-in-hand we will all jump in, Eagerly treading water as we wait to begin. At 7am the cannon will blast But be sure not to go out too fast. The cool water will run over your face, As you are now committed to the race. The Rural Bridge will seem so far away But keep those negative thoughts at bay. Once you turn around and head west To the Mill Ave. Bridge you go, trying your best. 2.4 miles will be over before you know it, And you will start to realize your thoughts of Iron are truly legit. On to the bike, f...

Still here. Still infertile.

Sigh.  Here we are again.  We knew all along we would be able to start the process for baby #2 when Sloane was nine months old.  I had said we did not necessarily want kids that close together, but knew just because we started then did not mean we would get pregnant then.  If I had only known how true that is becoming.  Silly us had started having visions of three kids.  The only way we can have three kids is to have things go smoothly, not lose embryos, and not lose time.  Well, so far we have lost an embryo and a lot of time in the quest for our next baby. I breezed through prep for our transfer in early May.  The stress load was so much less than before because I thought we had it figured out.  We had Sloane as a great distraction.  My lining was better than it has ever been before - by far.  Then, the day after Mother's Day, I found out it did not work.  And I was immediately thrown back into the depths of infertility hell....
