This past weekend, Adele ran her first 5k!

Well… it was kinda like a casual jaunt more than a run, but it is still going down in the books as her first official race!

It was steamy hot in LA this weekend, but we stayed in the shade as much as possible.

Guess who else joined us? Erica! She was such a trooper braving the heat and getting up early to walk with us. So much fun!

The course was a down and back along a bike path, and we decided that since there was little shade and a bit boring, we ditched the official route and detoured to walk around the lake instead. Shhhh! But the views and cool breeze were worth it! (We’re such rebels!)

And the best part about doing The Watermelon Run? You get watermelon at the end! YESSSSsss!!!! Jackpot!

Adele slept the whole way, but I hope she sees we’re setting a good example for a healthy and active lifestyle! Can’t wait til she’s old enough to participate in the kids fun run if she wants!

Posted this week by my husband, Irving:
I don’t know. I though it was kinda’ cool that at 10-weeks old Khali is starting to show signs that she ready to walk!

PS… In case anyone is confused, he calls Adele ‘Khali’ (short for her middle name, Khalifa).

 

New Friends! August 20, 2012

When I moved to LA eight years ago, it was so hard to make new friends. I found many great friendships through running, but everyone told me that once I had kids it would be easier to connect with more people. They were SO right! Through my baby classes, weekly yoga and mommy & me classes, I’ve met some amazing women. And Adele is making friends as well!

On Wednesday, we met up with four other mamas and babies in the park! It was so fun to get some fresh air and hold and feed our babies outside. We had fun chatting and watching each other’s babies smile, coo and look around.

I hope that all these little ladies stay friends as they grow up!

Hope to do it again soon!

Her favorite is: Watch Adele in the Mirror. She must know a cute baby when she sees one!
