Walk the pounds away

May 4, 2010 By Erika Zane

4 May

So all I have to say today is: I vow to walk 20 miles a week with Dylan (my at least 16lb weight resistance) every week from here on out… Also, I’m noticing some definition in my arms which can only be from lugging the car seat around and playing with Dylan by lifting him above my head and dropping him down, which is one of his favorite games (which I think I already mentioned in a previous post).

So my exercise move for the day is to find an uphill stretch of quiet road or a path and push your baby in a stroller up it several times a week 🙂 (I promise I’ll find some better ideas tomorrow… or I’ll try anyway!)

Here’s a fun picture of Dylan from today:

>I'm trying to get out and walk every day, though I don't have a mileage goal, just a daily activity goal! 🙂

Hope your week is going well, see you Wednesday! 🙂

Hello and welcome. It’s been a while. For Lent this year I decided to fast from the thing that took too much of my attention from what is truly important: Social Media. Though there are countless amazing benefits to Social Media, after about a month offline so far, there are seemingly just as many negatives. I never realized how much of my brain had been hijacked by it. I’ve had so many revelations about how much easier it is to move forward when I’m not constantly reminded of the past. But I still want to record my family as they grow at this ridiculous speed and, I’m realizing, so many of our family’s memories are here. Those along with so many of the struggles and stages we’ve worked through. Maybe in the midst of COVID19 isolation and my kids around me so often, I’m brought back to a time when they were too young for school and with me so often. Writing here during that time helped make up for the limited adult conversation in my days and the overwhelm provided by my… little treasures 😉 My husband, fur babies, three fiesty kids, and I hereby extend an invitation to visit this little sneak peak into our life. We’re super flawed and broken and there aren’t too many dull moments around here. And I promise it’s not always as magical as some of my golden hour, sun-soaked images would suggest. There’s usually too much coffee in my system and we welcome all the prayers. Come on over if you want to process with me.
