The Baby

My sister-in-law is pregnant, what an amazing thing. I am going to be an uncle and I just absolutly cannot wait, I am going to spoil this baby so much, I think that it will be quit possible that it is going to be my most favorite baby yet born in my family. This Baby is bringing them back to Owensboro faster than they had originally planned. My brother is coming back and will be living just 5 miles from my house. I will be at their house probably everyday after school that I can, I will be riding horses and biking to his house from mine, its going to be awsome. I am hoping that it will be a boy because I think that it will be more fun but whatever it is will be okay.

Training

Triathlon training is still going well. My race is on June 12 and just the other day I was thinking that it was just a couple of weeks away, but then I realized that I forgot about the whole month of May. That was exciting news because now I have an extra month to get better that I didn't realize I had. I have been doing some kind of activity each day: either run, swim, bike, or a mixture of two or sometimes three of the events. I absolutly love this stuff. My brothers training is also coming along, he will be able to complete the race, he hasn't be able to train as hard as he has wanted to but he has had to work extra lately and his wife has been having pregnacy problems. I'm just glad that he is going to do it with me. I think that I will get done much sooner than he so I plan to go back out once I finish and finish the race again with him for the extra support.

Describe a Childhood birthday.

I remember as a child when I would have a birthday it would just be amazing. My mom would do so much for me that I looked forward to it so much. She would make any cake that I wanted, and my sisters birthday is really close to mine so we had the party at the same time, so we were able to kind of talk and get two of our favorite cakes. Also we were able to pick out what we wanted to eat, Mom always wanted to make us feel extra special. Our birthdays are in the December so it was always cold so it had to be inside but it was always so much fun with the entire family in the basement having a good ol' time. I never really wanted to have a party with my friends because I loved getting together with my family and having a party with them.

What was the last CD that I bought and Why?

I actually don't remember the last CD that I bought because I guess it has just been too long ago that I don't remember. When I was younger and before I bought an ipod I wasn't really into music and didn't want to waste my money on a CD that I only wanted for a song or two on it. I was young so their for I didn't have a whole lot of money. For as long as I can remember I have had an Ipod and was just downloading each song that I wanted on it directly from the computer. My Ipod has been fantastic though because it is so small: I can run with it, mow the yard with it, and do all of these things that are more handy than lugging around a larger CD player and CD's.

Spring Break

I didn't really have a spring break due to the fact that I had tecnical classes on the mornings of Monday thru Thursday and had to stay here for them, and most of the days I got out of class and went to work from 11:30 till 11:40 that night and did it over again the next day. During my college spring break about a month ago I had to come to the high school each day. I did however during the break take a couple of days off from the college and went to Murray to hang with my brother. We did some fishing and did some triathlon training as well. I did get instructer permission to miss class before I did so to ensure that I wouldn't miss anything to important. I mowed some grass as well, with all of this work I greatly regreted it at the time but when I get my pay check for it I might change my mind just a little bit.

Bro and sister-in-Law coming back

Today me and my brother and mom went to look at a house on Todd Bridge Road that he has been interested in. It sits on 2 acres of land and is an old farm house, that they will have to do a little work to, but it has potential. He is currently living in Murray Kentucky until his wife graduates from the nursing program at Murray State University. She has recently become pregnant and now is wanting to move back home, they are home sick shall we say. I can't wait until they move back and the great thing about it is that they will only be 5 miles from my house. I can either drive to his house, run, bike, or ride my horse and then lock it in his small field. It will be great.

Swim training

Today after school I went and meet up with my brother at the YMCA where we did some swim training for our triathlon. This was the first time that we were able to swim together when it comes to lap swimming. I started this kind of swimming last year when I started training for my triathlon, I didn't do much of this swim training because I didn't really have a place to swim train, but this year I have been training at the YMCA and usually go 4 plus times a week. I have really improved my technique and training this year when it comes to training, I am no where near a lot of my competition but I have improved quite a bit. Zach has just started this year when it comes to lap swim and haven't really expected to see him do as well as he has in the pool until I saw him today. He has taught himself everything that he knows at this point, he has heard be talk a little about it but never been shown what to do. Today I was able to show him a little more that would help in the future, but anyways he is doing great and I am very proud of what he is doing. Perfecting a swim stroke all comes with time and how often you swim.
