July 5, 2012 - Hike/Run

Today my favorite moment was when Devin and I went on a walk turned into hike turned into run.  We walked and talked for a while then turned off the road onto a trail and hiked a bit.  Then I got bored with hiking and wanted to run so we did.  I just love running.  I don't know what it is about running, but it is one of my most favorite activities in the whole world.

December 28, 2011 - Jaxon

Today my favorite moment was when Jaxon said, "I'm gonna ride my bike 'cause I wanna have some healthy-ness in my body."

I'm glad he wants to be healthy and knows that riding his bike is good exercise.

October 18, 2011 - Healthyness

Today my favorite moment was after I got done running and Jaxon said, "I'm gonna ride my bike because I wanna have some healthy-ness in my body."  I'm glad he wants to be healthy.  I love that little guy!

October 5, 2011 - Running & Picnic

Today I had a few favorite moments.

Running.  Oh it was a beautiful day and I got to run outside!  I was going to go for 3, but then went for 6 because I was feeling so good!  For the marathon, my goal is to run 8:20 miles to qualify for Boston.  So I am trying to train around an 8:00 mile.  Today, I did the first 5 miles at that pace then did fartleks for the last mile and cut it down to 6:00.

Ollie.  When I got back from running I found Ollie in the kitchen.  I kissed him and went on to kiss Devin. When I left Ollie, he wined and said, "Ma."  Coincidence?  Maybe.  But it was still cute and made me happy.

Picnic.  The boys wanted to have a picnic for dinner, so we did.  We took our french toast and hash potatoes out to the shade in the front yard.  After eating we played duck, duck, goose and the boys had a ball!

July 25, 2011 - Workout

Today my favorite moment was when I got to workout.  It felt so good on my body.  I worked out last week too so I was a little sore and it felt so nice to push my body.  It has been difficult to find time workout since Ollie was born.  Making time with 2 kids wasn't so bad, but for some reason, having 3 kids has made it almost impossible to make time to exercise.  Between naps and meals and everyone's schedules...it's serious.  But, exercising is something I absolutely love doing.  And, it makes me happier when I do it.  It's so important.  Anyway...yes, today my favorite moment was exercising!  Yea for sprints and weights!

April 22, 2011 - Run

Today my favorite moment was when I got to run outside.  It was a beautiful morning and I didn't have to push a stroller.  I am starting to get back in shape and today I got a taste of the running feeling I really love.

April 12, 2011 - Devin

Today my favorite moment happened when Devin called me on his lunch break.  He said, "You wanted me last night, didn't you?"  I answered truthfully, "It would have been nice, but you had to do your homework."  Then he came back with, "I'm gonna get big and strong for you."  I just laughed and told him thanks. I'm glad he is suddenly motivated to exercise, but he already has a 6 pack and doesn't even work out!  He really is a super stud!

April 1, 2011 - Guy at the YMCA

Today my favorite moment was when we went to reactivate our YMCA membership and the guy helping us, upon seeing my baby, asked if I was there to lose some baby weight.  I told him yep and he said, "All those ladies back there are gonna hate you.  You are already skinnier than all of them!"  He probably says that to everyone.  And it is definitely not true, but I was flattered nonetheless.
