I'm doing good so far. I'm walking about 4 times a week and still keeping up with my spin class. I'm really out of breath till my body warms up but after that I'm good.

Glad to hear you're doing well with the spinning @sparklinwhine
So thankful for the long weekend. Ran a local 5k Saturday morning before going to spin class. All the 30-34 women must have slept in because somehow I got first in my age group. I'm trying to transition into doing spin more often too. I know the clock is ticking on how much longer I'll be comfortable running.
Visiting family in NY now. We had a gender reveal party yesterday Hoping to get a flight home tomorrow. Everything was overbooked tonight.
Exercise is going ok. Although I about die when I go outside.. Stupid allergies. I swear they are worse being pregnant. I've also been under considerable stress with selling and trying to find a new house. We can't find anything we like in the areas we want for a price we can afford. Thinking of taking the house off the market until the baby comes and then see how our finances are instead of speculating. Sorry this turned into a big vent!
Yay for boys, runblondie26! I spent all weekend washing, drying, and hanging up/folding Junior's itty bitty baby boy clothes and its pretty much cemented in my mind that yep, baby boy stuff IS a lot cuter than I thought when I first got PG
Speaking of Junior, he and I are cruising right along. We had an impromptu trip to L&D last Weds courtesy of the teeny fender bender I got in (seriously, teeny...no damage to either car, I felt fine, whole nine yards. But OB policy is to get a NST so I did), where Junior spent the whole four (!!) hours kicking away at the monitors, getting the hiccups, and in general showing off his mad skillz. Needless to say we passed that with flying colors We got his furniture in his room yesterday and all his clothes from 0-6 months are washed and either hanging up or in the dresser drawers. Next up is getting his bedding washed and put on the bed and decorating his room...I have a shower this weekend, so he's about to be even more spoiled than he already is.
H&Fwise I'm feeling pretty good. Maybe a touch of heartburn in the evenings but nothing crazy, and I get winded at the drop of a hat. I'm still running a little, but no more than 4 miles total (and that's usually run/walk intervals) otherwise my lower back starts to hurt. Cycling and elliptical machines are helping the boredom, and I think I'm going to start trying to swim some laps too. In general though, I feel like a weeblewobble with an extremely active (just ask katietornado, she got to feel him move on Friday) tapeworm.

Thanks ladies! I have so many little girl clothes to sort through and get rid of now, it's overwhelming. I'm exited I'll get to experience having one of each though. DH even got a little teary eyed when we got the news. Melted my heart.
Life is currently stressful with a lot of non H&F items. Mostly just renting out our old place which our landlords are currently sucking royally at. So we get stuck with double rent. Boo.
I know running would help, but I'm having a hard time finding inspiration or time. Weekends are busy and my son is quite the handful. I feel bad leaving him with my H when we have so much to get done.
I'm really enjoying prenatal yoga once a week. My commute involves a lot of walking.
We picked out paint colors for our baby girl's room and ordered the crib and dresser (finally!).
