Big exciting news here in the Palmer House:

| WooHoo! |
We had a pretty good idea already, but we got our proof on Friday morning. The big kids are super excited too! Blake goes back and forth between wanting a sister or a brother, though lately its been brother. Daelynn has a whole other plan however, she wants a sister AND a brother! :) And she is determined that there is indeed a boy and a girl in there. If I talk about the baby in mommy's tummy, she corrects me by reminding me there are two, a boy and a girl. Sweet little girl. Guess we'll see if we are doubling up on this pregnancy in another month or two. That sure would be a wonderful surprise!
On a side note, that shirt was my very first screen printing project. :) What a fun one to start off with!
Saturday was the WillPower 5K I had signed up for a little over a month ago. I was very pumped to run in my first 5K! My friends Sarah, Deborah, Deborah's son Teeper, and Nicole also signed up to run. It was a pretty chilly morning, but that's good for running. Sarah, Deborah, and Teeper were kind enough to stay back with this slow lady. It meant so much to me to have friends cheering me on, motivating me, and making the race so much fun!

My wonderful husband came to cheer me on, with all three of the kids. It felt great to have them there cheering mommy on for her first 5K!
They were right there watching and cheering when I crossed the finish line!

It was a lot of fun and I am so glad I did it. I am also very thankful for my amazing friends who came out in the early, chilly, morning to run. You guys are awesome!
And a big kudos to Nicole who got a fantastic time while running four months pregnant! Yeah! She is great motivation for being a fit mommy, and she is always very encouraging to me.
It was a great race, and hopefully the first of many! I also hope to do this race again next year, and beat my time by 7-10 minutes. Its a big goal considering I should have a 3 and a half month old by then. But I think I can do it!
