Get moving!

Even though I do like doing things like taking walks, riding bikes, and being active, I struggle to find a way to fit it into our schedule.  At the end of this past week I decided to take a step to get us moving more.  I hope to do a Barre3 workout in the morning by myself too, but if I don't make it up, at least we'll have our walk.

I asked each of the older two girls (mostly RJ, but AG wanted to try too) to be my walking buddies.  Our goal is to get out three days a week to take a walk.  I'll pull MA and CN in the wagon.  RJ and AG can either walk with me, run, or go on their scooters.  Our goal is eventually to go for a full 30 minutes each time.  We have a chart for each of us.  Our first goal is to make it to 12 times, and then we each get a new book.  After reaching that goal, we'll bump it up to 18 or 24 times.

We've been once so far.  Our first time was a 15 minute, 1.25 mile walk/scoot.  Half the time I'd like to go, but no one complained, and I got to walk fast, so I was happy.
