See Mommy Run

A little background first.
I am the Personal Progress Coordinator in my ward. The girls 12-18 in the ward have a program where they set goals and work at learning about womanhood and how to be a strong woman and mother in the gospel. 
It's a brilliant, beautiful program. 
As the coordinator, I am in charge of motivating the girls and helping them by giving them opportunities to achieve the projects.

Leaders can do it as well. After reading through it, I have decided on a couple projects I am going to do.
I am now running every day in order to run as much as I can of a 5K in May.
My friend, Cassandra and I are running every morning at 8:30 around the neighborhood. We still have  a ways to go, but I'm proud of myself so far!

Here's C and I before a run.

The jiggling of the stroller is very soothing for him. He's asleep under the hat...

I'm going to need a new stroller. My stroller is really taking a beating from running.
Any favorite running strollers out there?

Sweet boy asleep again

We bundle up a LOT for our runs. C can't wear fleece pajamas during the night because he sleeps too hot. So he wears his fleece pj's during our runs.
 He also wears a fleece jacket, a hat, mittens, and two blankets.

I put the quilt up high so he can be blocked from the cold air while we're moving.

The back of the blanket has connect-the-dots. Here, he's going cross-eyed looking at them. 

He's a good running buddy.

He looks so cute in all that warm attire! Good for you for running early every morning. That's a great goal. If you guys keep it up by the time my baby is a couple months old I will definitely have to join you.
