Annlyn's Arrival

Yes, TWO weeks early! Caught us all off guard! Mom called me at 1:30 am Wednesday to tell me they were on the way to the hospital because Ronna's water had broke. By 8 am that morning I just couldn't help myself, I drove straight to the hospital. By the time I got there Ronna was 7 cm! We thought things were going rather quickly and then suddenly everything came to a pause. Hours and hours passed, we all patiently waited and finally the doctor gave the go to push. She was finally born at 6:42 pm on November 9, 2011. Our lives and hearts are certainly changed forever in a wonderful way! Let me introduce you to...

Annlyn Kristina Rawls
8 lbs. 4 oz


I'm in love!


She is beautiful and we are all beaming with excitement. I love her so much and look forward to spoiling her the rest of her life. Uncle Todd had school and work and couldn't make it so he will get to meet her next weekend! I can't wait to hold her again! Mom, Dad and baby are all doing well and will be bringing her home soon. So happy for them! God is good! Now we are just waiting on baby girl Davis (Todd's brother and wife, not us folks!) to arrive which should be any day. Woohoo!

Cheers,

Couch to 5K

Yup, who would have ever thought this girl would start running?! Well I can't toot my own horn too loudly just yet because I've only completed day one of the Couch to 5K program. The point is, running is something I've always avoided like a disease yet I'm always envious of runners. How messed up are those thoughts?!

I just want to at least try. I may totally bomb the idea (I do have semi-weak knees) but I actually completed workout number one with no cheating and I felt so good about it.

I realize running in a 5K isn't much but it is a small goal of mine that I'd love to say I did. Plus, I've had it on the list for a while now so I'd love to check that bad boy off! Right now I'm  going to try to do a M,W,F running schedule and do some upper body toning on my off days. Maybe by actually writing on this ol' blog, it will inspire me to keep it up. We shall see how Wednesday goes. I promise to be real with you folks and let you know how it is going!


Who wants to give it a shot with me? Who has tried it before? Any encouragement or advice?


Cheers,
Sara
