Walking

My dear friend Kathy has been walking with me and Geoy every morning. We don't walk very fast. We keep it at a moderate pace and visit. I am not sure what is more beneficial, the walking or the visiting. I love Kathy, she is so patient with Geoy and the little things that come up when taking a child walking, like him wanting to push the stroller instead of riding. He has a hard time keeping it going where he wants and refuses any help. We have been run over a few times. We also have to go to the playground after we walk. Kathy just goes along and we keep visiting while we play, slide and swing.

I had gone off of the smoothies for a few days when we came home. After being at mom's where Leonard has a Blendtec, my smoothies made with my Bosch blender was less than satisfying. In fact it was down right awful. I was still trying to eat a good diet. Lots of fruit, whole wheat bread made by my visiting teacher, and some veggies. But I realized that I was having less and less energy, so I am back on the smoothies.

I tried to get Geoy to drink a smoothie this morning. It was very simple with almond milk and a banana with a little cocoa added as incentive. When I gave it to him and he tasted it he said "it dewissius" but then he didn't drink it so maybe not so much. I will keep trying. Maybe I will find a combination that he will drink.
