Too many of them are getting obese at young ages. My son is trying to get more exercise. We actually just took a nice walk to the park today. It was so beautiful out and the fall air devine. Check out my post on men and health today. It&#39;s one for the ladies and the men in their lives. <br />http://www.womenslifelink.com/do-women-care-more-about-health-than-men/KellieShttp://www.womenslifelink.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1538251275202889882.post-63873994951952819942009-09-29T09:47:32.125-07:002009-09-29T09:47:32.125-07:00Excellent post Genny! I completely agree. Esp. now that my son is in kindergarten and all he does is sit at school and learn. When he gets home it&#39;s outside time. Almost everyday. I don&#39;t really give them activities to do outside, I just sit and read and they run and scream and spray eachother with the water hose.

I am terrible at exercise and often I see my Mom in me. In fact, the other day I told hubby he&#39;s going to have to nag me to exercise with him like my Dad did to my Mom. I often wish I had kids in the hopes that they would motivate me to get out &amp; do more knowing how much they need it too. <br /><br />Great post Genny!Suehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03468825001504482205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1538251275202889882.post-73886756569520092272009-09-28T22:46:01.791-07:002009-09-28T22:46:01.791-07:00My kids are young, so getting outside everyday is critically important here. They need fresh air and time to run around, and I need a break from being on-call all day. Luckily, for the under-five set, exercise is really just another way to play!<br /><br />Glad you&#39;re back to blogging!Emilyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16644613647401437326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1538251275202889882.post-18788543191703172212009-09-28T09:55:05.542-07:002009-09-28T09:55:05.542-07:00Great tips Genny! I am not the best at creating activities for my kids to do, but we do limit the TV and they seem to be pretty creative on their own!<br /><br />It is great to have a reminder to be more intentional in this area - great post!megs @ whadusayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09807639698901758562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1538251275202889882.post-14137113484679055692009-09-28T07:26:04.638-07:002009-09-28T07:26:04.638-07:00Great job Genny... you are an EXCELLENT writer!
