I'm going to run a marathon!

Ha ha! Just kidding. But I did sign up for a 5K... and in 'Elise world' that's basically a marathon! It will be the furthest I've ever run before - don't mock. It's a dress-up race for Halloween and I thought it looked like fun.
It's exciting to have something to work toward! And after months of inactivity, due to being pregnant, it sure feels good to be able to move and exercise again!

In other news... tell me this isn't the cutest thing ever! (Don't really.)Let me take a moment to say that this is the best stroller ever! The more I use it the more I love it! It is so light weight and easy to maneuver and getting the kids in and out is so easy! It's great to jog with and it's also a bike trailer. We can take the kids out in any weather because it has a complete rain cover, a bug screen, and a sun shade. It can be pouring rain and the kids stay completely dry and warm!
And the boys love going out in it - it's great motivation for me to go jogging. It remind me of when I had a dog and I would say the word 'outside' and she would run to the door jumping up and down. All I have to say to Joey is 'Jog' and he runs to his room, grabs his shoes, gets in the stroller and waits (not so patiently)!
So, I think you get the picture...we all like the stroller :)

  1. That's great you're going to run a 5K! That's more than I can say... I've never even had the desire to run a 5K. It's hard enough to get me out to go jogging as it is!
    Joey and Sammy are just so stinkin adorable!

  3. Good luck with the 5K (that is awesome!), LOVE the hats, and the stroller looks perfect! Where did you get that baby insert thingy? We have a similar stroller but I didn't use it last year because it didn't give much support for Liam.

  4. I'm so glad you're doing a "marathon"! I'm sure you will love it and be hooked! And I'm glad you have found the perfect stroller/tow behind combo, you'll have to clue us in on that when the time comes lol. And yes, you have the cutest little boys in the world! I can't wait to meet Sammy!
