“At first an ordeal and then an accomplishment, the daily run becomes a staple, like bread, or wine, a fine marriage, or air. It is also a free pass to friendship.”

Early Delivery!!!

So, I've been absent from the blogging world for a little while....but I have a good reason...
Little Avery decided to make an early appearance!!!   My water broke during my workout on Tuesday.   I will do a better recap of everything in a later post...For now, I just wanted to announce little Avery!


Avery was born August 10th at 3:40am.  She was 5lbs, 3 oz at birth and was 18 inches long!  She's so tiny!  


Thank you to everyone for the well wishes and bits of help!   An extra shout out to my friends Teresa and Amy who brought me preemie clothes in the hospital since she was swimming in the newborn outfits!  Thank you to Sarah for keeping the Lucky 13's updated for me and bringing us dinner in the hospital!   Thank you Deb for visiting and taking the awesome pictures used in this blog!


Loving being a mommy,
