Ran with Lynn this morning again. We took the first mile faster, though, and that always seems to have a draining effect on the rest of my run. But it was still a good run.

Today has turned out to be a BE-AU-tiful day! It's 61 degrees and my husband and I took our 2 little ones on a walk which turned into a hike in the open space behind our house. The pines smelled so nice and the weather was so perfect, it felt like we had driven hours to go hiking up in the mountains. I can't wait for summer - by then, our youngest will be walking!

Thanks for your support!! Jody, you're outnumbered now. 2 of the 3 women who commented on my blog are pregnant. Any announcements? (hee,hee)

I'll even up the odds a little...

Great job, Laura. Glad you are finally seeing the beautiful weather. Toughing out your very first winter as a runner is quite an achievement. Congrats!
