Strait Baby Number 3
Being that this is our third baby, I am going to keep a log on how my exercise progresses through this pregnancy and post it on the blog. I ran until 31 weeks with Elijah, which seems like a real feat!
Week 14 exercise went really well. I felt strong and could have ran longer had time not been an issue. Ben juiced quite a bit which may have contributed to more energy as well as being firmly in my second trimester.

Week 14
Sat ran 4 miles
Sun
Mon ran 3 miles
Tues ran 3 miles lifted for 20 mins
Weds
Thurs ran 3 miles
Fri ran 3 miles

Weight Gain unknown

The belly at 14 weeks.

The world is perishing for lack of the knowledge of God, and the church is famishing for want of His presence - A. W. Tozer

The Mighty One, God, the Lord, speaks and summons the earth from the rising of the sun to the place where it sets. From Zion, perfect in beauty, God shines forth. Our God comes and will not be silent; a fire devours before him, and around him a tempest rages. Psalms 50: 1-3

Sorry for the blog hiatus. After a few complaints from loved ones, here is a new post.
Since our last blog, we've had beautiful, sunny days and then an incredible amount of snow. The kids took their new sled out of the garage for the first time and enjoyed their first rides on about an inch of snow.

We spent Wednesday night with our friends, the Garaways, at their house in Boulder for the first night of Pesach. It was such a memorable night and we are so grateful to have celebrated with them. For me, it was a reminder of G-d's desire for a people unto Himself, separated. From the preparation made days in advance, the removal of all leaven from the house for 7 days, to the cup of redemption, it is a reminder that we serve a covenant keeping G-d.
Today is Good Friday and we are looking forward to celebrating Easter with family. He is risen!
