Eleanor has an announcement . . .

We are pretty excited to be welcoming another little one into our family. We will find out the gender at the end of this month. I'm so happy to be done with the 1st trimester! It was pretty rough, but I'm feeling great now. The actual due date is October 19th, so I am just over 16 weeks now. Eleanor and the new baby will be 21 months apart, which I hope ends up being a good thing. I would love another girl since we wouldn't have to buy much, but a little boy would be wonderful too. 

Eleanor loves babies, so I'm sure she will be a great big sister. I am nervous about having enough energy to spend time with her and a new baby, but I figure I will somehow manage. I am just so excited to hold a newborn again!

My Husband the Ironman

My incredible husband, Kevin, has been training for the last 6 months for the St George Ironman. In the process he lost over 70 lbs! Yesterday was the big day and I could not be more proud of him. The race consists of a 1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike, and 13.1 run. I don't think that the human body should be capable of doing that much, but Kevin managed to push through all the blood, sweat and tears to finish. I love him so much!

Kevin found a video online that has a clip of him crossing the finish line. He is at about 6:40. I still get emotional watching it. Such a great moment.
