Running Day + Water Day

June 4, 2015 | baby, blogging, family, fitness, running

As most of you probably know, yesterday was national running day. Even though I did a tough speed work session Tuesday night, I of course had to run yesterday. But not before hanging out with this cutie yesterday morning. She is getting more and more mobile by the day. She isn’t full out crawling yet but she can reach and pull and twist to get what she is after!

Since I ran Tuesday night and planned to run again at the track Thursday, I decided to just do a quick run around the neighborhood.

It’s definitely running skirts weather! Some of their new collection has come out, it’s adorable! You can shop at this link.

A neighbor gave us a splash pad they were no longer using, so we tested it out with Emma Kate…and it didn’t exactly go over as I had planned.

She hhaattteeeddd it and cried and fussed until I picked her up. I’m not sure if it was the cold water or the sprayers or just something new, but she wasn’t having any of it. Hopefully later this summer she will warm up to the idea. Look at that frowny frowny face!

We still had fun sitting outside and playing. I love how adorable her Minnie Mouse swimsuit turned out to be!

I could just eat her up!

I also had fun staging a little photoshoot of my ASICS shoes that they ended up using in an Instagram post for national running day.

Sadly, that is not all of my running shoes. Also sadly, when Bobby walked into the kitchen and saw my shoes on the floor in a circle, he didn’t even ask why. Yes I apparently do weird stuff like this all the time.

So that was our eventful day yesterday, I hope everyone was able to get out there and run!

QOTD: Did you run yesterday? How far? Did/do your kids like the water?

    That frowny face is so cute. Would she warm up to it if you were on the splash pad with her?

    All four of my kiddos hated any kind of outdoor water toy (baby pool, splash pad, etc) when they were babies, but they absolutely LOVED them by their second Summer. So there’s definitely still hope that Emma Kate will warm up to it, so keep trying. My bet is that she’ll love it when she’s able to crawl and run through it. She looked too cute in her Minnie swimsuit!
