Day 118
Ridiculously crazy day today with all the things we packed in, that I will spare you the details of listing here. Among the many things were swim lessons for the girls and a run for me as well as Pioneer Clubs for all of us.
Day 119
Gymnastics for the girls. A walk and speed workout for me. Hannah tagged along for the speed workout. She played on a playground next to the track, then when I got near her, she'd run with me for a tenth of a mile or so. She claimed that she won all of our races. Of course she decided when the "race" was over and I'd keep going around the track. We had a beautiful spring evening, so the girls spent time outside with Daddy weeding and playing in the yard. John decided to combine his walk with an errand to Lowes so he walked there and back. He said it was kind of odd walking at a brisk pace, then stepping into the store where eveyrone was going at a much slower pace. It's cool that is thinking outside the box for ways to his exercise in.
Day 120
The speed workout yesterday just killed me, so I'm taking toady off. It's rainy and drippy outside, so we won't get to have family time at the park like I was hoping. John got out for his walk. We used the time we had with the girls after dinner to get them to clean their rooms. We had bought them a plasma car at Costco, but said they couldn't try it out until their rooms were clean. I have never seen them be able to clear everything off the floor themselves. It wasn't without complaining, but at least John and I didn't have to hand hold them. We got to concentrate on cleaning the rest of the house. We did put the car together and they tried it out in the garage. The box claims it is good exercise, but they weren't on it long enough to count as exercise and I'm still not sure it would be great exercise unless you were on teh thing for at least 30 min. They don't pedal it, the only real work they do is with their arms and probably their core muscles. http://www.plasmacar.com/store/customer/index.php
