GPS - finally
I got an early Christmas gift - a garmin for running!  So far it's been so great!  I now know my pace and time and although it's not all figured out yet I love it.  I have been running when I can since the half but that hasn't been much.  My husband works a lot and it's dark now at 5pm so that really limits my running.  I usually run Mon, Wed, Fri - husband watches him Mondays (he has Sun and Mon off) and I find a babysitter the other times or take him.  I prefer the babysitter.  Usually my parents or my sister or aunt.  It's a lot of work as I go to them about 20 minutes away.  Sometimes I am lucky and they come to me like Wednesday.  Tomorrow I am going to my sisters so I can run.  I am ready to start running a lot again but really need to figure out the babysitter situation.  He can be pretty bad still when I leave him and my parents will call me back.  I can be about an hour and that's all anyone can handle so it's tough.  I find the now it's dark that really limits my running as I used to get my parents to come out at night to work him and they didn't mind.  During the day it's harder for them with their work ect.  I am still nursing my guy - he just won't take a bottle which I don't mind it just makes it difficult to leave him with anyone.  I never thought I could last this long but I have to admit that I will miss nursing him when it's time to stop whenever that will be...

Yay for the Garmin!! It is such a wonderful tool, I use mine all the time...probably too much because I'm a little too pace focused, lol. I understand the issues of finding a sitter for your little one, my baby girl has only been away from me for about 3 hours since she was born(9 months ago...almost 10) and that was when she stayed with dad and after she was 6 months so she ate some baby food. She doesn't like bottles either. Nursing creates such a strong bond between you and your little one, I'm going to miss it when she stops nursing too.
