Walk Run Walk







We had a sleeper till 4. That's pretty good. Of course now, I can't sleep and she is sound asleep... go figure. What the day brings. Well this week I got sign off from the doc, that I can "RESUME" exercise. Hahaha... that means I had to have been exercising before this whole pregnancy thing... =) With my new bill of health, I set out on an adventure this week. I loaded the car first thing Thursday morning with the baby and the dog and headed to the beach. There we set out on a walk. Its amazing how many people don't work, or are out exercising at 9 during the week. Anywho, we were walking pretty fast along the cliffs when... wait, let me back up just a little.




About three weeks ago, Craig and I were curious as to if and when we can jog with Syd. Her stoller is a jogger as well. Anyone that knows Craig, knows that he's not so good at figuring things like this out. Well so I tell him to read the manual to the stroller and it should say something. He reads it and it says, according to him, that we can't run with her till she is 6 months. I didn't think much of it when he said that. Then a couple weeks ago, he was running at the beach and ran into a friend of ours with a 4 month old walking. He talks to her and somehow he mentions how we're not supposed to run with the baby till 6 months. She says, no you can run with them now. He of course doesn't ask her anything about it, and comes home to me and says... "Ceci says that we can run with Sydney now... I'm not sure how she does it or whatever, maybe I should call Kevin." I again was listening, but wasn't really thinking about it.




Okay, so back to the story, I'm walking with Syd and the dog along the ocean and I see a girl with a similar stroller and an infant seat running along there. It is not till now that I think about all the things my husband has been saying. Of course I then realize that he probably read the actual jogger shouldn't be used till the baby is 6 months, which makes sense. He wasn't thinking about the fact that currently she's strapped into a car seat which is hooked into the jogger. Doh! Anyways it is at this point that I think, I should start running. I got sign off from the doctor on Tuesday, why not. So I start to run. I have Caddie pulling on one side, I have the stroller in the other hand and I'm running... HOLY MOLY. I didn't go too far, maybe a couple hundred yards or something... hahaha... I just said that like I know how much 100 yards is. I'm the worst a lengths. You know when you're giving directions and people ask how long you are on one road till you turn onto another... I HAVE NO IDEA. Craig is really good and can say... go about 3 mile and then you'll take a right. I'm like... look for this land mark down the way. hahaha...


Anyways, long story short I ran and sweat and it felt pretty damn funny. I then went again on Friday and ran for longer. I went again today, but this time Amanda and I just walked.


So I hate when you have a thousand things to think about at 5 in the morning. Its actually 5:30 now, but I'm totally not going back to bed soon. I have to do her announcements. I have to find a day care, which is really starting to weigh on me. I will have to have a full posting on that experience, but not right now... its too depressing. Oh, high chairs... i haven't gotten one, but I have a few months till she's using it. I've been trying to research them and hoping that when I get my next coupon for 15% off, I'll buy it then. Well I was over at Amanda's today looking at how she is decorating the baby's room and she already had her high chair and put together. Silly... I should not worry about stupid stuff... I don't even need it yet. Okay, I'm going to do some more searching for announcements. Wish me luck. We get Syd's newborn pics today from the photographer. I'm so excited. Okay, I'll post some more pics... I have so many cutes ones.




Happy thing that happened today... Craig let me nap this afternoon for 2 hours... AMAZING




Fun thing that happened today... I boxed Adam on the Wii. He beat me, but I think its because I'm short it wasn't picking up my movements.




Okay, I'm off to find an announcement... Ciao for now!
