New Running Trail - YES!
Look what I found, a new paved running trail! It's a few miles from home, so I'm sure when the weather cools off and I'm running more miles, I can include this in my running route. I ran one mile and Cheyenne joined me for about .25 of that. She's fast, seriously. Especially since I was recovering from my running injury when we went.
    
When I'm running in and out (from my home, to another point -- then turning back around to head back home), I like it when I can include an amazing pay off view, whether it be a lake, a scenic park, or hills, like this...

More Proof, I'm Addicted to Water: 
I am so excited about my $2.98 gallon size pitcher purchase. The water pressure line coming out of the fridge is ridiculously slow. Add that to Trey's honey-do list. Although, it takes nearly 4 minutes to fill this baby up, I'd rather stand there once, for that time, in one day, then run back and forth every time I need to fill my 32 oz bottle.

Grow Baby Grow: 
This is why I have a 2 month old, that looks like a 4 month old...she's ALAWYS eating. You're probably wondering why I'm feeding her from a bottle, I'll explain in another post, at another time. She's still exclusively nursing, but yeah -- I have a method here --

P.S. I finally have a working laptop in my hands!!!! FINALLY! Now, blogging will be more convenient for me.

My Favorite Thing, in the Whole Wide World!

I want to share with you my FAVORITE THING in the whole wide world, well at least my favorite thing -- right now. It's a water bottle made by Contigo. A water bottle is my favorite thing?

If you know anything about me, you know I'm a water addict. Trey has joked about wanting to send me to rehab for my addiction, which is kind of strange since this was my birthday gift from him.

I always carry water with me. ALWAYS. If you see me and I don't have a bottle in my hand or purse, please offer me water because chances are I'm dying of thirst!

For several years, I've been using the tin can (sigg style) water containers, but my bottle was so deformed, it couldn't stand up straight. Yeah, maybe it had been dropped a few times....It had a wobble to it. Erin, is the one who introduced me to this amazing Contigo, no leak, auto sip, one push button water bottle. It holds 32 oz of water! LOVE! The only thing that would make it perfect is if they offered it in a gallon size too. I'm joking, maybe.

Here is what makes this bottle amazing, also mentioned on Contigo's Site:
