Worn Out on Wednesday

Yah. Like, I'm going to fall asleep on this keyboard. I think it's the late summer heatwave, but this pregnant B$%^* has been tiiiiii-erddd this week. I've also had some kind of social engagement everyday or 2xs per day, so that might have something to do with it as well.

Yesterday was a pretty long day, too, since David and I drove up to Breckenridge, CO to see the finish of the USA ProCycling Challenge stage there. We got there in perfect time--just enough minutes to get a snack and a drink before getting a spot and seeing all the racers come in. I realize that approximately 0% of you are cycling fans, but even still, a professional bike race is pretty exciting. They go.so.fast. Here's a shot of our spot yesterday near the finish line:




And even though I don't love this picture of me, I thought I'd post it anyhow since when I'm reading blogs I like seeing pictures of the people too.




And finally, a shot from the drive home:




Colorado is so pretty in the summer, peeps. I don't know why everyone moves here for the skiing. The summer is where it's at.

Speaking of summer, look what I bought at the grocery store today:




That's a freaking boatload of strawberries:-) Fruit, fruit, fruit: I swear I've never eaten as much fruit in my life as I have done since being pregnant. I liked fruit just fine before pregnancy, but this baby sure has taken it to a new level for me. Let's hope that means that baby has been snuggled up in a cocoon of strawberry-flavored amniotic fluid these past eight and a half months:-) Sounds yummy to me! Uh, slash kind of TMI and gross. Sorry about that amniotic fluid comment...hehe.

On another baby note, look what my mother-in-law gave us:




A baby quilt! Isn't it pretty? It has a yellow border, which for me lessens the sting of the uber-girly purple. (Though I do actually like purple.) Anyway, it's just a quilt, but it did kind of make me excited for baby time...only five weeks and six days to go...

*What are you looking forward to this fall?
