Get the Running Shoes Out!!


Ok, so I'm not much of a runner, unless of course someone is shooting at me and even then just maybe! In all honestly though, I have baby pounds to shed and I am ready to get working on them. So every other day I try to walk to this huge rusty turtle. Its 3 miles round trip and its quite a workout for this out of shape girl.

On Saturdays Todd walks it or steals the kids bikes and comes with. It is a gorgeous time of year and its a plus that the snakes are hybernating.

If we are feeling adventurous we proceed past the rusty turtle to the rusty snake, which is about another 1/2 mile away. In all honesty we have only made it here once. I love that my boys love the outdoors and Tanner even will walk the whole thing with me, its a great time to just talk to my hubby and kids.

I haven't had much of thumb sucking kiddos but this one will ditch the binki and just settle for the ol' thumb. She is quite the LOUD thumb sucker too.
I will hear jibber jabbering coming from Cali's room and I will walk in to see Carter in Cali's crib talking or playing with her.

I love thumb sucking kids except when you are trying to break them of the habit. You can throw a binki away your can't throw their thumb away. Or if you are my parents you could just threaten that an electric blanket will electricute you if you suck your thumb while using it. Good for you getting those runnig shoes out. I don't look forward to that part after having a baby

Your family looks so happy! I am jealous of the light jackets!!! I think that our high was 18 degrees today. We may have to run to the sun in AZ!

Way to go on all that walking. That baby weight will melt right off... not like you have much to lose anyway...
I about got tears in my eyes seeing Carter in Cali's crib. Those are such sweet moments with siblings.
I want to see more pics of Cali to see how she is changing!!

Hi Jessica, You have a darling family. You still look the same as you did when I worked with you at Mtn West Telecom. I was just doing some blog surfing (I dont like to call it blog stalking) and I ran on to your blog. It was great to read up on you and your little family. Gosh it has probably been about 8 years since you have been gone from Mtn West.

P.S. Please send some of that sunshine to SLC please.

She is private so if you give me your email she can put you on the list and you can check it out if you would like. Gosh I just read your newest post and I am so jealous of the 80 degree weather. It is snowing here.
