I don't even drink beer, but I drank 2 schooners (big ass cups) of beer after! It just seems to really hit the spot.P.O.M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16410533843419723414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32536118.post-26879090012609475542007-10-15T05:53:00.000-07:002007-10-15T05:53:00.000-07:00Cute little baby!

Does your husband will act as a pace bunny? <BR/><BR/>That little boy is so cute, definitely way better when you can give them back to their parents when they start crying! Enjoy Auntie Laurel!<BR/><BR/>I was looking to come down your way for the ING marathon at the end of January, I want one marathon a year and Las Vegas is in 2007 not 2008... lol So, hopefully the hotels downtown will come down and I will go!Soniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15766375122022031029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32536118.post-60638814593792562852007-10-14T01:41:00.000-07:002007-10-14T01:41:00.000-07:00what a cute little boy - a perfect distraction fro...what a cute little boy - a perfect distraction from the taper madeness. I'll skip the bowling alley, thanks for the advice!<BR/><BR/>It doesn't sound weird that you might want to go to cooler weather - makes complete sense to me, naturally. One of my exes is from OH and went to OSU and we spent a lot of time there, not that I remember much. There was a lot of drinky-drinky going on - like your taper city but much worse.<BR/><BR/>I guess the Miami Half course would have been nice if it wasn't POURING rain...not that I'm bitter but I didn't enjoy those puddles at the start.<BR/><BR/>Enjoy your Sunday.wshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04030953897283161914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32536118.post-91303100490665000712007-10-13T21:40:00.000-07:002007-10-13T21:40:00.000-07:00Cute baby--thanks for enlightening me on the prope...Cute baby--thanks for enlightening me on the proper pronunciation, so that I don't sound like an ignorant American. :-)<BR/><BR/>You seem to be enjoying your taper! I'm glad your first marathon wasn't Chicago 07. I'm looking forward to cutting way back on the miles this week.Dorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12489181738411546254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32536118.post-86777060861548323782007-10-13T16:49:00.000-07:002007-10-13T16:49:00.000-07:00Awwwwwwhhhhh what a cute little munchkin!!

They're little dolls when they are that small as long as you don't have to take care of them :P Yeaaahhh waking up every 2-3 hrs to feed is not something I'd want to go back too. Can you tell I'm done having kids? :P<BR/><BR/>I'm surprised about the bowling bit. Good to know, good to know. I guess it is a sport after all, huh?<BR/><BR/>Time is near chica!!! I can't wait! I'm excited for you! ;D ;D ;D<BR/><BR/>Speaking of BS . . .yeah did you see those pics from this past week of her getting out of a car without undies for the 3589237593837657843 time?
