Going the Distance

Over the Memorial Day holiday, our church had a free 5K and 10K on Saturday morning.

After a lot of wishy-washy talk on my part, I finally decided to run the 5K.

Despite it being the morning after school let out, there was a pretty good crowd.

Bart decided to run with me, and he pushed Ella in the jogging stroller while I carried the baby.

The four of us finished with a time of 28:50.

Yes, four!

December 2nd, 2012!
We are pretty excited:
Even if Ella thinks a doughnut for breakfast is way more exciting than a new sibling

  1. Yay babies!! So excited for you! So fun that you and Merrick continue to have kids so close together! You are going to be pretty pregnant when we come visit you in October and I am SO excited!! =D Congrats!

  2. So exited for you guys! I'm sad I'll miss it but I'll come back and visit! by the way you don't even look almost 4 months pregnant!

  3. In a world of cheesy and over the top baby reveal blog posts (which I will probably indulge in myself for the next one 🙂 ) this was refreshingly original and fits who you are so well. Congrats!

  4. You guys are so cute. NO JOKE, earlier this week I was thinking, "Hmm… I bet Janssen's pregnant." That's all. Maybe it was the tweet about needing a cookie to revive you after falling asleep on the couch that tipped me off. Haha, or not, since… that's something I regularly do and I'm not pregnant. 😉

    Seriously, though – congrats. You are the cutest mom.

  5. Yaaaaayyyyyy!!!!!!!!! Congratulations! I can't wait to hear more pregnancy updates! And very sneaky reveal – I love it!

  6. This was GOOD. I was super confused.

    Congratulations to you guys!! I hope you're feeling well!!!

    And I'm seriously impressed that you ran a 5k in your second (?) trimester. Amazing.

  7. GAH!!! Oh this makes me so happy! What an adorable post, I love it! When you said, "while I carried the baby," I had a fleeting thought: no way – she RAN while holding Ella?!? But that was instantly replaced with the realization of what was really coming and I suddenly wished you were my next door neighbor so I could run over and give you a congratulatory hug. YAY!!!
