Day 16

Look who is working out with me now! She really wants to go for a 'jog' with me outside but until all this ice and snow go away, she'll just have to make do with stretching and walking (very slowly) on the treadmill.

And can you tell which of my kids loves the camera and which two don't at all? I am going to work hard on capturing them in the next couple of weeks!

Day 14

I got off the treadmill this evening and felt so energized (and exhausted all at the same time). When I came into our basement den to check on the kids, this is the picture I saw...

I had to run grab my camera it was so sweet! Travis and all three kids were enjoying the movie 'Finding Nemo' together all snuggled and cozy on the couch. The four most important people in the world (to me) doing something so natural, I couldn't help but smile. I am so blessed!

Day 5

These shoes have taken me far in the past couple of months and I am proud to showcase them today. Before I had my first child six and a half years ago, I was an avid runner. I ran and I loved it, for the way I felt, the way I looked, and the competitive drive it gave me. Before my dad passed away 3 years ago, I had picked my love for running back up and was planning on running my first 5k. He passed away and all of that went out the window (he was one of my biggest supporters, it was the hardest thing that I have ever gone through.) But I am back. I have been working on walking/jogging everyday for the past 6 weeks and today I am proud to say these shoes and I clocked 3.7 miles! YES! So excited to be getting my health and my drive back!
