Me...jogging????

Yep you read it right. I worked out for the first time in FOREVER! This morning after dropping the boys off I debated going home and crawling back in bed. Falling asleep is soooo hard some nights and once I get to sleep the boys take turns waking me up. Logan even fell out of bed last night. I woke up to him crying and when I went in there I almost tripped over him. He was fine it just scared him! I talked myself out of sleeping the day away and headed off to tan. I've never been this pale in my life! Alaska is killing me! While tanning the thought popped in my head. I've been wanting to run even tossing around the idea of running a marathon but I've not motivated myself to really RUN! So today I ran for the first time in YEARS! I was so proud of myself. I ran around our housing complex. I thought it was a half mile or so. My mom (who has walked that same trail when she visited) said she thinks its well over a mile. So I'm going to go with her estimate!!!! When I told Aaron his reply was "how many times did you run it!" Are you kidding me! I was barely breathing after running it once...how on earth was I going to make it a second time! Of course this coming from the man who can run 3 miles without breathing hard! Don't worry though...I enjoyed it so I will be doing it more. As long as this smoke goes away. Aaron better watch it...it would be horrible to be shown up by your wife!!!! (Yeah right!!) The smoke is usually worse in the afternoons so running this morning was perfect. I work the rest of this week so no morning runs. Hopefully my stroller will be here tomorrow so maybe we can test it out...if the smoke stays away. So far 1.5 million acres have burned this summer.
After picking Logan up we headed off to get "light up shoes." He has been begging for shoes that light up for the longest. Aaron and I have been trying to talk him out of getting them but it wasn't working. He found some Transformer light up shoes the other day and I told him we would talk to Daddy. Well Daddy finally said yes. I told him that if they were on sale we would get them today. So in we go and they were on sale. I whole $4 off!!! Guess I should have specified how big of a sale! So he's the happiest little boy in the world right now with his new "cool" light up shoes!
Mr. Lane was in a very talkative mood tonight on the phone with Grammy and Papaw. He is always talking my ears off but he's normally quiet on the phone. Not tonight. He had a lot to say. He was laughing and just jabbering away. This is a picture of him while he was talking to Papaw. The other picture of him is from the other day. He LOVES to climb on the oven. He stands on the warmer handle and holds on to the oven handle. He will stand there while I'm doing the dishes or cleaning. I have to put the gate up while I'm cooking cause he will try to do this then. I've gotten on to him and tried to make him stop but he doesn't listen too well some times!

You go girl with the running! :) When you guys move home we will have to find a race that we can all do together. That would be fun! We ran by a house the other morning that had a small fire almost out and the smoke nearly choked me. I can't imagine running through as much smoke as you had to !! Yuck.
