The numbers are in, well at least for the first 2 weeks. Shane is down 8, I am down 7. I am so proud of the both of us. We have been eating super healthy and running everyday. I do more of a run/walk/hike than actually run. (Full on sprinting is not good for the baby.) Shane runs anywhere from 2-3 miles a day. OMG!! Going from a 2 hundred something that sat on the couch and watched football to a runner...makes me so proud. And he looks good too! My back doesn't hurt anymore and I have tons of energy.
Baby #2 Update: I actually don't feel as pregnant as I did before. I am sure it has something to do with me staying active and eating better. I do get nauseous here and there, but nothing too bad...yet. I haven't made it to the doctor yet, I will try and get an ultra sound in the next 2 weeks or so. I will keep everyone updated.

Emotional Struggles
Over the last couple of days I cant help but feel a little...well disappointed. I really want to wrap this family up, get all the baby making over with. But I honestly forgot how much I hate being pregnant. The crying, hunger, nausea, blah blah blah. I feel like this baby is an intruder on my perfect family. An intruder in my body. I know that's the hormones talking.
I want to make a set of goals that I can reach during this pregnancy:
1. Get through it as quick as possible.
2. Get through it as painless as possible.
3. Try to focus on the beautiful family at the end of the tunnel.
4. Maintain my exercise routine (lets face it, I could lose 60 lbs during this pregnancy and it wouldn't effect this baby in anyway)
5. Be healthy. Reward = Have a healthy baby!
6. Run as long as possible, until I'm too big.
These are my goals. Pretty simple. I'm focusing on staying positive. I'm trying to not let my raging, crazy hormones get the best of me.

Mother of 2...
Most of you may know by now, some of you dont, the Borg's are expecting #2. It took me awhile to decide if this was something I wanted to share with the world or keep in the family until I was farther along.
I always look back on my pregnancy with Ryan and wished I would have blogged about it, but I didnt, and now I find myself forgetting all of the little stuff (first movement, heartbeats, ect.). Good, bad, or ugly, I dont care, I want to remember it. And with our family blog in existence, I can.
So for all of you people out there thinking to yourselves how "taboo" it is that I have announced my pregnancy, now you have a little background on where I am coming from. It wasnt a desicion that we made lightly.
Now with that out of the way...
We estimate me to be 6-8 weeks along. (I told you it was still early) I am going to wait as long as I can to get into the Dr, only because my schedule is crazy and I have done this before so I think I have the first 2.5 months covered! I have been feeling very dizzy, exhausted and I have had a headache for like week!! I found myself thinking this morning..."Wow, I forgot how much being pregnant sucks!!"
This particular subject we are going to post on a lot over the next couple of months. I do want everyone to know, that because of my history with losing pregnancies, I am taking a chance telling the world so early. But I have come to terms with that possibility in any pregnacy that I have, and am ok with that outcome as well. As sad as it is, thats a part of life...and I know that God doesnt put us in situations that we cant handle.
Anyways, thats it for now. We are still pretty unproductive because Im not that far along. More to come!!!
Here is an Ultrasound picture of little Ryan, I had to post it. So Cute!!!
