walk about

My main sources of exercise, prior to children, was jogging and hiking.  With pregnancy I slacked a lot! So I’m a bit out of shape but walking is still my favorite form of getting fresh air, whether it be on a wooded hillside, down a well known bike path or alongside a busy parkway; the latter is the option when walking from my current residence . . . not my favorite but it works and it keeps the boys’ attention due to the amount vehicles, big rigs, motorcycles, and anything else that rolls on wheels with an engine to mobilize it.  This is to Tobias’ great fascination and keeps the whining about sitting for so long to a minimum.  And by the way its situated, there is plenty of land between the busy road and our vulnerable pedestrian state and Byron is allowed to meander aimlessly on his extend-a-leash contraption due to no grumpy human lawns to poop on and the dodging of the multitudes.  If I could just block out the mass amounts of traffic whizzing by at 60 mph.

Tobias, always camera ready and Samuel . . . they’re hangin’ while mom gets a jaunt of exercise in.  Hard life, that! 

Byron loves these outings more than anyone else, and that’s saying something!  Thank goodness for person that invented the extend-a-leash!! They must’ve had a Jack Russell!

God Bless!!

ps, by God’s grace that I can do this . . . a good friend, (hint, friends that visited Saturday) gave me the double jogging stroller . . . I wouldn’t have one otherwise! Thank you, you know who you are!!!  I try not to idolize it, its hard sometimes . . . its my favorite material possession right now!
