Oh baby!



















I have missed running with, or rather behind my speedy friend Laurence, who has taken a pregnancy leave of absence from my running group. So I was most excited to join my friends in throwing her a baby shower at a beautiful local and favorite spot, Stony Hill Vineyard. Their chardonnay is exceptional and the views are spectacular.

The ladies wisely decided to join forces and rather than leave it to the individual's better or less fortunate taste, we presented her with a gift we knew she would love and use. The BOB jogging stroller . The baby jogger is really quite sharp looking. It comes in a variety of colors and several different styles to accommodate specific needs and uses, it only weighs 22 lbs, and claims to turn on a dime. I highly recommend it.

I learned of a new, creepy wives tale. To determine the sex of the baby Laurence had to rip out a strand of her hair, tie it around her wedding band, and hold it approximately three inches from her belly. If the ring moves hip to hip (side to side) it's a boy. If it moves head to toe (up and down) it's a girl. Well it kind of moved in circles and I don't really know what that means, but I DO know that as soon as they announced the baby shower games were starting, I took one look at the BOB stroller and called shotgun.
