From Sam (age 5)
My Mom's favorite thing to do is. .. hug me, and make me dinner.
I love my Mom because. . . she tucks me in bed at night, and brings me to school every day.
From Nick (age 4)
My Mom's favorite thing to do is. . . gose (sic) shopping. Mostly at Costco.
I love my Mom because . . . she says I love you.
Love it!! And yes, my favorite thing in the world is shopping at Costco. ;-)
My favorite cutie pies at the beach Easter egg hunt a few weeks ago:
Running:
Yesterday was another cross training (my plan switches back and forth between 1x/week and 2x/week). I did the bike for 40 minutes & then did some strength training (legs, abs, back) & stretching.
I mixed up my runs, and today is actually my 6 mile run. It's cold and rainy, but I'm going to give it my best shot!
Food:
I was dying for a beer & cheesy taco yesterday to celebrate Cinco de Mayo, but I kept things in check and stuck to my calories for the day by having a tilapia taco instead, sans cheese. Here's how things went down:
- Breakfast - egg, broccoli, green pepper, tomato and feta wrap on a bagel thin + coffee & strawberries
- Snack - mini Luna bar
- Lunch - salad & smoothie
- Snack - 1/2 a protein bar from the gym + trail mix
- Dinner - handful of cashews + 1 fish taco + apple
What about you? Any big weekend plans? Any races or training runs?
Giveaway:
I'm picking up the last item for my giveaway at the beach, and I'll be kicking things off on Monday. Let's just say that it will include a beauty item (something from this brand), a fashion item (something from this brand), a few running related items, and some fabulous snacks from the beach. You won't want to miss it! :-)
