Walking routine? Not so simple....

Do you have a daily walking routine with your LO?
How did you start it? How long do you walk?!

I need to get OUT! I'm a 21 year stay a home mamí of a very energized 14 month old && I'm going STIR CRAZY!!! I wanna start a walking routine. 30 minutes, an hour. Where to? Idc. Sitting in the house all day cleaning is not me. I'm gonna SNAP! My mornings are always busy with cleaning, breakfast, a crazy toddler && helping DH get his day started. By the time my DD naps I'm pooped. When she wakes up, it's time to start prepping dinner. So, when do I get some me time? Or out time? I wish she would nap earlier than.I.could get out.... HELP!

  • What about a stroller so you can walk with her in the morning? It might even work out that she naps on the walk.

  • Can you get up extra early and go for a walk? Even 15 or 20 minutes first thing would give you a little something. Also, how much "helping DH get his day started" are you doing? I'm assuming he's an adult, too, so he SHOULD be capable of doing that himself, to give you a bit more sanity in your life.
