Running with Diapers

A journey of motherhood, sprinkled with a few hundred miles of pounding pavement.

Sunday Confessional hello Sunday. I've got a chill little day planned for today. We are just out of church, and I'm feeling cleansed, so I felt inspired to use this post to repent for my fitness impurities -among others.

Brands I love

Hey guys.  It’s another Friday Five and I’m linking up with the DC Gals again to bring you a topic that I personally love to share…. Brands we love. We all have them, our personal preference, our stand-by favorites, those killer staples that we just couldn’t think about racing without.   I hold my favorite brands near and dear and I love to give them a shout out whenever I can.  So without…

Honey Ginger Chicken Stir Fry

Honey Ginger Chicken Stir Fry

This is such a great little recipe.  It’s a variation of a quick meal idea that I discovered on Martha Stewart living.  She originally used just red peppers, but I thought that was too simple, so I’ve added tri-colored peppers with celery and carrots. it’s totally family friendly, super quick, easy, and so delicious.  If you wanted to substitute or add shrimp it would be easy enough.  Chicken is…

6 Month Old Baby Harrison

6 Month Old Baby Harrison

I’m late for my update.  <—–  I feel like I’ve been starting a lot of post like this lately.  Well, the basis for my tardiness has a lot to do with this little man that’s growing and developing before me.  Even now as he is looking back at me from his activity mat, I am distracted by his cuteness.  It’s physically and mentally debilitating.  I may need an intervention.  Okay, I joke.  But on a…

Last Week's Workouts - 3/29/15

Last Week’s Workouts – 3/29/15

You’ll have to excuse my tardiness for this post.  It was suppose to hit the blog yesterday, but for whatever reason, it was still sitting in my draft folder today when I logged in.  As they say, better late than never.

Last week I scaled back from my Max 30 training to focus on my running.  I have just two weeks left until my last half marathon of this season, so I really want to enjoy these…

Spring Green Recipes

Another Friday is upon us and I’m so happy to be joining back with the #FF linkup.  These past few weeks have been a blur.  Sleep has been scarce and my extracurricular activities have been limited, but now my son appears to have cycled through his stage of sleep regression and I’m back to sleeping 6 – 7 hours again.  I gotta be honest; it was pretty brutal.  I wasn’t sure if I was going to make…

Adventures in Swim Lessons - Week One, Lesson One

Adventures in Swim Lessons – Week One, Lesson One

I haven’t talked too much on the blog about the fact that my 3 year old still hasn’t learned to swim.  Last Summer, I began reinforcing some basic swim skills and confidence exercises while we were staying with my parents at the beach, but I was never successful teaching my daughter to overcome her fear of being submerged under water.  This fact kept me from enrolling her in swim lessons earlier…

Last week's Workouts - 3/22/15

Last week’s Workouts – 3/22/15

i have to play catch up today with my workouts.  I have been very sporadic with my blog posts recently, mostly due to my sporadic sleep patterns with the baby, and I’ve missed a couple crucial recaps and workout posts.  Life gets in the way sometimes and I’m sorry to say this, but blogging has to take a backseat to some other priorities in my life.  Sleep trumps blogging.  Sorry.

So since we’re…

Mostly Silent Saturday

Life has been a little busy for me lately.  I know I have been slipping on my blogging, so I thought it would be a great idea to use today to catch up through my camera roll.

Here’s what we’ve been up to lately.

If you look really, really closely, you can see two little baby teeth breeching through his gums.  His first!   Special Deliveries

Friday Five - A Day in the Life

Friday Five – A Day in the Life

Woo Hoo!  Friday Friday Friday!!!   This week is slowly coming to a close and I cannot wait to get some much needed rest.  My husband has been traveling since Wednesday morning and I’m exhausted from having these two kiddos and no one to give me a break.  Harrison is in the middle of a period of sleep regression, so he’s been waking up every 2 – 3 hours every night – after he was already sleeping…

Best Damn Race Orlando 2015 Recap

Best Damn Race Orlando 2015 Recap

This past Saturday was the best damn race Orlando.  If you’re not familiar with this race series, then you might not know that it has three different distances to choose from.  There is a 10k, 5k and a half marathon.  I would be attempting the half marathon for the second time.  I ran it last year for the inaugural race, but if you remember correctly, I was about 11 weeks pregnant at the time and…
