Here's a picture of Bella when she was little (with Tiny <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/sad10.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="sad10">). I don't have any pictures of her online when she was a pup like Speedy's but I thought you might see some likeness to your picture:<br><br><img alt="" src="http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p189/hlaudet/tb.jpg" style="border:0px solid;">
Howdy again, all. Thanks for all the advice on surviving with a newborn. I know we're gonna be fine. Maggie and I have been saying to eachother for months that maybe neither of us are super-geniuses, but billions of people dumber than us have had kids before, and if they can do it, so can we. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy"><br><br>
Ugh. Still not Friday yet, huh?

Hey now, I resemble that remark <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile"> You will both be fine, everybody goes through the pre baby nerves. Plus there are alot of us here who can relate and give plenty of ideas both good and bad <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy">

<b>Bob</b> My 2 cents on the newborn thing...be prepared to feel kinda useless and frustrated the first few weeks. Your job is to make everything else easier for Maggie so she can take care of the kid (feeding especially) and recover. Help with as much as you can (diapers and all that) but really really there is only so much you can do unless you're lactating, so keep the house clean, get visitors out the door as quickly as possible, do the shopping etc. And don't push for much hanky-panky - you're about to cross a Sex Desert, my friend, so be prepared for a dry spell. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/sad.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Sad"> On the plus side, running will be a good outlet - how do you think I got to be so fast?!<br><br><b>Maria</b> I'm sorry, an 8K? What, are you doing 2 marathons in the month before Philly or something and you think you may be tired? You wussbag! <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy"><br><br>
I have a feeling if I wore the caveman suit, it wouldn't elicit the same reaction from the crowds. I would look like Ringo Starr in that movie he did...scrawny, pigeon chested, not at all intimidating to the wild beasts of the caveman days. I wouldn't be able to pick up the club to knock a woman over the head and drag her off by the hair!

<a href="http://www.cnn.com/2007/HEALTH/diet.fitness/10/03/weightloss.kelly.pless/index.html" target="_blank">This</a> link was on cnn.com. I don't know how I feel about these stories; I'm definitely happy for the individual people, but . . . I do love one of the lines at the end about how people think she's funnier now that she lost weight.

It would have been an easy decision anyway, but I do have to admit that I was already having to do some motivating self-talk to try and get out and run today. I just have not been feeling it the past few days, haven't run since the big one on Sat. Then again, I did run the equivalent of a HM without the medal so perhaps some recovery time is in order. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/cool.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Cool">

Put Me In Coach! I'm ready to Play!<br><br>
Holy cow! I've been flying all day. Tried to post around 10:30 and got sidetracked. 2 on the treadmill later. I was going to run at 9:15 but I had to go to the highschool to pick up some restitution stolen bike money. and then one thing led to the other and now....welll...now here I am.<br><br>

<b>GatorBob</b> I am reminded of something the great philosopher Bill Cosby said about newborns. "At first everything is <span style="text-decoration:underline;"><i>cute</i></span>. The first smile, the first burp and even the first poo is cute. Then a short time later God ads smell to the poos. Then it's no longer cute..."<br><br>
LOL it's from one of his standup routines. I botched the words but it was something along those lines. The main point was that the baby poo was "cute" for the first week or so and then it begins to be erm.....normal. eheh<br><br>
And yes this post is from a hopeless single guy with no kid experience. Just trying to fit in as best I can with all you "experienced" types. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy">

After the race, someone came up to me and said, "That costume is <i>so</i> you!"<br><br><img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/confused.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Confused"><br><br>
ETA: Oh yea, just got back from my first post-marathon run -- 4 miles in 35:05. The quads were not real, real happy, especially the left one. But structurally, everything seemed fine.

ok <b>GatorBob</b> here is the quote:<br><br>
We called our parents up, "Come over and see the poo-poo!" They came over. "Oh, my God, will you look at the poo-poo!" Two months later, God put odor in the poo-poo, and it became a mess. Parents didn't want to change the child anymore. And they talked to the child...<br><br><br>
here is a link to some funny newborn routines from the Cos:<br><br><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0083652/quotes" target="_blank">http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0083652/quotes</a><br><br>
from Bill Cosby "Himself", very funny, haven't seen that for years and years

I could use a little of her perserverance!! <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/notworthy.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="notworthy">
