Amber In Real Life: October 2011
http://amberirl.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Amber In Real Life. Wednesday, October 26, 2011. Mock) Pumpkin Pie Smoothie. This girl.) So, right now, I sit at about 7 lbs above what I consider my optimal weight. It doesn't sound like much, but it is around 5% of my body weight. I am always looking for healthy, but tasty, recipes. I found a winner for my breakfast smoothie this morning. The recipe is modified from one I found on the Lululemon blog. Mock) Pumpkin Pie Smoothie. 1 cup milk (we use 1% lactose free milk). 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice. With the...

Amber In Real Life: May 2011
http://amberirl.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Amber In Real Life. Tuesday, May 17, 2011. I could swear that I just posted a blog update, but here I am posting almost a month after my last entry. I guess it could have something to do with the fact that I was beating myself into the ground until last Thursday or so. Or not. But, I really don't want to think about winter since spring/summer has finally arrived in Saskatoon! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. The Mundane Adventures of Bryan.

Amber In Real Life: June 2011
http://amberirl.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Amber In Real Life. Saturday, June 11, 2011. It took me two weeks to work myself up to writing this post. The marathon wasn't a terrible experience or anything, but it takes a while to assimilate and reflect. Between the marathon, half marathon, 10K, and 5K races, there were close to 9,000 people racing. About 4,000 of us lined up for the start of the full and half marathons. With so many people, it took me close to 6 minutes to cross the start line. After far too long, I rounded the last corner and the ...

Amber In Real Life. Thursday, August 9, 2012. Still not a doctor. I have every reason to think that things will go as smoothly as possible, because my committee chair and my supervisors have really great at moving things along since I got pregnant. Go figure.).

Amber In Real Life: A Pre-Birth Story
http://amberirl.blogspot.com/2012/11/a-pre-birth-story.html
Amber In Real Life. Sunday, November 4, 2012. I am finally getting around to writing up Baby N's birth story, which is going to be a two-parter. She is only 4 weeks old now, so I figure I'm doing pretty well considering I have edited my dissertation and finished my PhD, published a paper, and learned how to be a mom, including exclusively breastfeeding, in that time. So, we basically all hung around at Tox until just before 1PM, at which point E, my mom, and I headed for the hospital to check in.

Amber In Real Life: Hips Don't Lie
http://amberirl.blogspot.com/2012/02/hips-dont-lie.html
Amber In Real Life. Saturday, February 4, 2012. My hips (and low back) are making me feel much older than my 30 years this week! Monday marked the start of E and his training partner S's Half Ironman training. I have been swimming with them regularly, and I decided to add in an early morning run with them too, since it's nice to have buddies to go to the gym with. So, we swam twice and ran once on my already sore hips this week. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Amber In Real Life: Good news, bad news, uncertainty and childbirth
http://amberirl.blogspot.com/2012/09/good-news-bad-news-uncertainty-and.html
Amber In Real Life. Monday, September 17, 2012. Good news, bad news, uncertainty and childbirth. I feel like I've gotten lost on my journey to motherhood, and I'm trying desperately to figure things out right now. Let me back up a little. Even though I did all the right things to finish my PhD 2-3 weeks before this baby's due date, circumstances outside of my control (graduate studies and uncooperative committee members, I'm looking at you!

Amber In Real Life: Deep Freeze
http://amberirl.blogspot.com/2012/01/deep-freeze.html
Amber In Real Life. Thursday, January 19, 2012. The weather here in Saskatoon has been fabulous, with the exception of one below-average week in November, all fall and winter. I tried not to let it lull me into a false sense of security, but it's pretty hard to remember what a -40C windchill feels like when it's consistently above 0C in January. January people!

Amber In Real Life: July 2011
http://amberirl.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Amber In Real Life. Thursday, July 7, 2011. The Sherpa is Complete. I just put the finishing touches on my touring bike. E and I installed the fenders, and I put the cleats on my new touring sandals. It also happens to be 30C here today, so I was sweating the whole time we were working on the bike. These things always seem to take longer than they should too. I will admit that the bike is pretty sweet looking, though. Pictures to come soon. Tuesday, July 5, 2011. Here are my last 3 weekends in 3 pictures:.
