Happy Tuesday! How was everyone’s Memorial Day Weekend? I had a great long weekend full of sun, exercise, good food, and family/friend time. Tony and I had a BBQ at our house on Sunday and then we traveled to Milwaukee on Monday for a little vacation. We’re going to be in Milwaukee for the next couple of days and then we’ll be heading to Tony’s parents house to visit them this weekend.
Pregnancy Update – 25 Weeks
How far along? 25 weeks + 2 days
Due date? September 6, 2015
Baby’s size? Baby Allie is the size of a rutabaga (around 9 inches and 1.7 lbs.). I took the photo above 2 days ago, but I think I look even bigger today. I feel like I’ve popped all of a sudden.
Workouts: Ran 20 miles total for the week – woohoo! I definitely won’t run this many miles again until postpartum, but I felt great. As long as I continue to feel good I hope to run until 40 weeks and I’ll be aiming for 10-15 miles a week.
- Monday: 3 mile run outside
- Tuesday: 30 min AM walk on treadmill + 3 mile run coaching with CES
- Wednesday: 45 min walk on treadmill
- Thursday: 2 mile outside – this was cut short b/c I could feel Allie on my pelvis
- Friday: 2 mile shakeout run
- Saturday: 10 miles at 10:40 pace while running Soldier Field 10 Mile
- Sunday: 40 min walk with Mom & Max + another 40 min walk with Tony & Kyle
Maternity clothes? I need to buy more summer maternity clothes. It’s getting hot and humid.
Sleep: I didn’t sleep as well this week. I’m having trouble falling asleep and I’ve tried to lay down for a couple of naps, but my mind won’t let me relax.
Best moment this week: Running the Soldier Field 10 Mile Race!
Miss Anything? I miss drinking with my husband. It’s especially hard when we’re on vacation.
Movement: I feel her moving inside of me, but I still haven’t felt any BIG kicks…I’m starting to get worried.
Food cravings: Guacamole, sweet potatoes, Chipotle salad bowls and chocolate!
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nothing this week!
Gender: Girl!
Name: Allison Kay Larsen
Symptoms: Running slower and my huge baby bump.
Belly Button in or out? In.
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody: I’m happy 90% of the time, but I had big emotional break down on Monday. It started raining while I was out running, I felt slow, big and angry at the world. lol
Looking forward to: The rest of our vacation in Milwaukee and then visiting Tony’s parents this weekend.
Have a great vacation! Sounds like you are having fun (despite no drinking)! 🙂

I don’t own one maxi dress. That needs to change soon!
Have fun on your vacation! Maybe treat yourself to a mocktail or two – shirley temple anyone? 🙂
That was one big thing I missed about being pregnant that I didn’t think would be that big of a deal since I’m not a huge drinker anyway. You start to really miss the things you can’t have. I made a few virgin pina coladas at home towards the end when summer was in full swing to make myself feel better hah.
