25 weeks - only 15 fridays left

Jake and I have been working on getting back into the swing of things now that we are back from Mexico. For me the last couple weeks have been very busy at work and I am trying to fit in some baby preparation and holiday shopping now. Next month will be VERY busy with birthing classes every Saturday for the first three weeks and then Christmas. Luckily Jake and I are making some progress on the baby's room and slowly purchasing the necessary baby gear.

I am getting bigger now, here is the latest picture:

I can feel the baby moving around a bunch and occasionally you can feel it from the outside, though Jake has yet be around for it. I have been fortunate to not have much discomfort, headaches or heartburn in the last few weeks. Just two more weeks and I am into the third trimester!

Jake is starting to prepare for the 2009 bike racing season. He starts fairly slowly by building up his riding and throwing in some light weight training. I am sad to be off the bike but for now it is the best thing since my balance could be off. Hopefully, we can work out a schedule that allows Jake to get all his racing in since he worked so hard on the backyard last summer.
