Baby!

  Life's been pretty bitchin' the last week.  Baby delivery, Easter scavenger hunt, Portland time, and a little bit of sunshine.
 My sister had a baby! Getting to be there with her for the tree days of labor and the delivery was one amazing experience.  She is a lioness of power.  Words can't describe. Bryn Renee (that's right!) Pyper is a long and strong, lean mean suckling sleeping machine.  This birthing business is one rad miracle.
 3 days awake took the place of my 100 mile bike and 3 hour run, so I'm cobbling together some more intense shorter workouts at lunch and after class here in Portland this week to get ready for next Sunday's marathon in Eugene!
