This was Harlowe's first run outside in the baby jogger. She is six weeks old and we rigged the jogger so she would fit all tucked in. I really wanted to start jogging with her when Dustin had to work so he helped me fit her in the jogger without the carseat adaption. At this age she still wanted to be close to someone and didn't like being by herself for that long. I would feed her and change her diaper before the big event so she could be content and maybe fall asleep during the run; although, she would wake up in the middle of the run and start crying. Of course by this time I was exhausted and ready to slow down but I had to keep running so I could make it home and hold the poor child. It is crazy how I hate for her to cry so I would tell her, "Harlowe it is okay and we are almost there", huffing and puffing and out of breath.
Now she is about fourteen weeks old and loves going for runs, it usually puts her to sleep. I think she likes getting out in the fresh air and looking at the different sights, at least I hope she does. I like taking her out for fresh air and I love being with her when I run, she is like my personal workout buddy. I don't know what I am going to do when she grows up and is over being with her mom because I love spending all my time with her and cannot get enough of her.
Dustin's parents gave us the baby jogger and we are getting great use out of it, thanks again for the great gift, Harlowe loves it.
