I usually walk around our neighborhood for about an hour pushing the stroller while my older kids walk with me. Today, I thought I'd make it more challenging:

son #1 on his bike
son #2 on his scooter
son #3 in the stroller
and ME on ROLLERBLADES...

Oh my goodness! I could only make it 1/2 hour. My face is beet red - I can breathe - but barely. It's been awhile since I was on rollerblades, but MAN I didn't know I was THAT out of shape!!!

OK..drinking water then dying now!! :laugh:

    Good for you in pushing yourself. Next time you will not feel so much like dying!

    ROLLERBLADING IS SO MUCH FUN! Seriously. you can burn CRAZY calories while rollerblading. Just keep it up and you'll see that they'll kick your butt into shape. :-)

    Roller Blades = The Devil. Seriously. But congrats on trying something new! That's always the hardest part for me.

    That sounds like so much fun! I need go buy a new pair of roller blades. I gave my 11 year old neice (ya shes got big feet! Or maybe I have small ones? lol) my rollerblades when I was pregnant and I miss them sooo much!!! I think I might just go buy a pair and roll around with my son all day!

    It does get easier for sure!

    What a cool mom :glasses: rollerblading! Good for you! Just the first time will feel this bad. Next time not so much. Remember the scene with Rocky running up those steps!? Same thing! You should be proud.:smile::smile: :smile:
