For lunch today, my 11-month-old ate avocado, cheese, apples and whole wheat bread, with a banana yogurt drink on the side. My somewhat pickier 3-year-old ate cheese and a BIG carrot. I think I should start eating more like my girls. The funny thing is I am the one who feeds them, so why is it so hard to feed myself equally nutritious food? Just a thought...
After two lame, pathetic, lackluster weeks of running, I woke up excited to run yesterday. And today, I wore my running clothes all morning in anticipation of my nap time run today. Even in spite of sore glutes and tired quads from getting in some P90X Core Synergistics last night, I couldn't wait to get moving on Millie. I am a planner. Today I had a plan to get my run in while my girls slept, and my day was organized accordingly. I am also a creature of habit. The first thing I do when I roll out of bed every single day is make my bed and my girls' beds. If I do something else first, it throws off the entire morning. I am a creature of habit when it comes to my running routines as well. There are a few things that differ depending on whether I am running on Millie or outside, whether my girls are asleep or not, and whether or not they are joining me in the jogger. Yet, no matter when, where, how far or with whom I run, some things are always the same. My hair goes into a pony
My hubby is a stay at home Dad...so my boys eat Grilled Cheese Sandwiches, Macaroni, Hamburgers, tater tots, Pizza, Pasta, etc.. If I ate like my kids I would be a BLIMP!! LOL
ReplyDeleteAww how cute! I think sometimes it's easier for us to treat the ones we love more kindly than we do ourselves, eh?
ReplyDeleteGood mom giving them such nutritious food!
I have thought about that too. If I just ate yogurt, cheese, and fruit AND only when I am hungry, I would look great too. "The Kid's Diet" could be a great book idea!
ReplyDeleteThis is SO true! My 4 year old eats so healthy and yet I find whatever is easiest and quickest for me! I think I will make a conscious effort to try and eat more like him!
ReplyDeleteAnd so true JTC, I smell a book in the making! :)
