10K and an off schedule baby

I did a two part 10K today. I did 3 miles on the treadmill while Faith was napping and when she got up, we went outside and did 3.2 miles. I got it all done in a combined time of 57 minutes and 32 seconds (9:07 average), but I was doing speedwork on the treadmill since I get bored otherwise. It's pretty windy outside, so if I hadn't done those first 3 miles inside, my overall time would have been slower! Faith didn't mind the wind, mostly because she was in her plastic cage:
Kick, kick, kick!
Peanut behaved reasonably well, so I think I'm going to let her join me again on shorter runs (in the 4 mile range).

Faith has been rebel today with her schedule. First she skipped her early morning nap. That kind of threw me for a loop because she never misses that one. I tried to get her to go down at 8am, but she wanted nothing to do with it. We had an extra long playtime this morning instead.
Why would you block me from playing on the stairs? Why?

I'm just going to have to chew my way through

 At least chewing on this is better than walking into it, right Mommy?

Strike a pose

She's singing: "Da da da da"

Faith then napped from 10-11:30 and she seems to be in a good mood, so I'm just going to go with it. I just hope she'll take another nap because it's a long time until her 6:30pm bedtime without a nap!

Here's your corny joke for the day:

A pirate walks into a bar. The bartender looks at him and says, "Do you know you have a steering wheel in your pants?"

The pirate answers: "Arrrgh, it drives me nuts"


Can you top that one? :)

  3. How many naps does Faith get usually? I know around the 10 month mark, my kids started dwindling down to 2 (one in the late morning, around 10ish and another around 1-ish).

  5. lol to your pirate jok!

    I'm so not looking forward to nap time decreasing. I love playing with my baby, but I love the me time too.

  6. lol cute joke!

    I get all nervous when C doesn't seem to want to take his little cat nap around 4:00 because if he didn't, he'd never make it to 7:00 for bed (even a 20 minute little makes a huge difference). Had a rough time getting him down just now actually, but alas he's out for the count. I imagine as she starts to transition to dropping a nap it will happen gradually where some days she won't want to take that first early one. At least there's the whole day to try to recover if things go awry - it's that last little one that'll screw ya!
