My Workout Buddy

Melissa, you've inspired me. I've wanted to post these pics for a while, but never got around to them:
My Gazelle strider
A snoozing baby Sammy - This baby backpack has made the rounds in my family, belonging to my mother and being borrowed by all my siblings, and therefore nieces and nephews. Now I use it in my workouts when Sammy is fussy and wants to be held, but I want to get my workout done. He bounces around on my back, and is almost always lulled to sleep as he snuggles and gleefully pulls my hair. But I get the extra weight resistance and the reassurance that I'm giving him Mommy time. We both win!

  2. Oh, Becky, he is darling. That's a brilliant idea: mommy time and workout time all at once! The pictures put a big smile on my face.

  7. So cute! Inginuity is a beautiful thing.

    BTW I love my baby backpack. They are great for the zoo and places of that sort too. Puts the kids up where they can actually see the animals and gives you a better workout.
