Where has the time gone?

Perhaps I will jinx myself by asking that, but I am wondering where in the world have the last few months gone. Once I got over the the worries and sickness, the rest of my pregnancy has gone fairly quickly. I am hoping the next 5 weeks follow suite.
I feel like I have been hungrier over the last week. I haven't stepped on the scale since my appt. on Thursday. I am trying my best to stay healthy, walking everyday and keeping active at home.
If another person comments about how I might be overdoing it...I might do something other than be polite. What in the heck.....I am training for a marathon here ( at least that's what we hear in birthing class) so sitting on the couch and eating bon-bons and enjoying being able to "eat whatever I want" is false.
Or, If I hear again that since I am going to breastfeed the weight will fall off...I am giving that person a factual book on breastfeeding. You still have to eat well when you breastfeed, actually better. Did you know coffee stays in your system for 96 hours? So, no coffee for Grayson/Audrey and Mommy. Breastfeeding moms need only eat about 300 extra calories a day. Many times, the baby doesn't love the foods that a mom eats, so it may mean seeking out foods that agree with baby's "green" belly.
I am trying hard...I have to say, I can still see my feet...but I haven't seen anything else below my waist in weeks. Thank Goodness for mirrors.
