Walking and Winning

This: is what I have been seeing a lot of lately.

I started this year with more focus than ever to get healthy and lose some weight. So, the boys and I have been heading to the park at least twice a week. I can get a little exercise and they can play and get some of their wild and craziness energy out. It has been cold here, but not too terrible in the afternoons. Plus the cold just encourages me to talk a little faster! So far my diet and exercise plans are paying off...I have already lost 8 pounds! YAY! I just might make my goal before my dreaded 30th birthday in June!


Now for a winner!

Congrats to Leslie!

I used random.org to pick a commenter from my Wordless Wednesday post! I guess it was easy for everyone to tell that the boys were having a blast playing with some packing peanuts! Leslie send me an email with your address so I can get a fun happy to you in the mail:)


P.S. Check out Mimi's blog for a new FREE 4 All Fridays that she is hosting!

Congrats on the 8 lbs.
Trey and I love to go for walks. We started when he was 6 weeks old and we have been doing it ever since. We take a walk around town which always leads us to the park. I hate that it is super cold here now and to stick with my walking schedule I hit the treadmill with the DVR at naptime. Oh, how I can't wait to head outside this spring.
Have a great Friday!

Good for you Kelli on the weight loss that is awesome. I wanted to let you know that in the title area about the free 4 all button you should put that you will be hosting it every 4th Friday so that they can make sure to stop by every 4th friday for something free. i am giving everyone a heads up on a post tomorrow. Also, I will tell where it is at every Friday too. Thanks for helping me out and for the cute button. Love it.

Angie said...

YEAY!! You go girl!! I wish we lived closer so we could walk together!!

amanda said...

8 lbs. awesome!! i wish i could walk more around here. it's so hard to do it out in the country, and push a stroller. ((when there isn't snow of course)) i'm hoping winter is almost over and i can walk in town with my mom, just to stay 'fit' during this pregnancy!

i'm bummed i missed the giveaway!! my kids love packing peanuts too...and that picture is priceless! (or wordless.) lol.

have a great weekend!

Congratulations on the weight loss. That is fantastic. I wish I could go walking right now but there is way to much snow. It was a nice day today though.

Good for you! I can't wait until the weather gets nicer out here so I can start walking with the kids.
