Mid-week check in...

Just a quick update. The boys and I have been at the track every morning. Yay! Here is a quick recap of our exercise so far this week:

Monday: crunches and 1 ¼ mile walk
Tuesday: crunches, leg exercises and 1 ½ mile walk
Wednesday: crunches, arm exercise and 1 ¾ mile walk

I’m finding that the mornings are the only times I can manage to squeeze anything in. Luke is usually content to watch Blue’s Clues or Sesame Street and Will is content in his Jumperoo – so I can take the few minutes then to do my strength training.

Though we’ve only been going to the track a few days, Luke is already getting restless in the stroller. I let him walk with me on my cool down (though it can take forever to get anywhere when he decides he wants to say “hi” to and pick up every rock and flower along the way!) =) As long as I remember a pacifier (forgot one on Tuesday) Will is usually fairly content. I just hope they won’t kick up too much of a fuss in the future– I really think this routine works…at least for me! =)

Alright, that’s all I have time to write for now. Chris’s mom is flying in tomorrow and I have tons to do before then.

Keep up the good work ladies! We can do it! We CAN do it!
