This is part of a sponsored collaboration with Huggies and Latina Mom Bloggers. However, all opinions expressed are my own.
As a mom to two little boys, I find myself more active than ever! Some days are full of running around the house chasing a 2 year-old, and then jumping through the various obstacle courses he’s managed to create from toys and household junk. My toddler really knows how to make a mama sweat!
Other days I’m dancing around and making silly faces so my 4 month-old can stop crying.
It amazes me just how much energy they have AND how much energy they need to burn off to prevent tantrums and stick to those naps.
Despite the crazy days we have, keeping up with these guys has really helped me lose lots of baby weight :)!
Toddler vs Baby Activity
I’ve noticed that with our toddler, outdoor or highly physical activities are a must. They give him the chance to run around in large, open spaces and not worry about bumping into furniture and getting injured. Whether that means taking him to a local baby gym or letting him walk the dog and splash around in the yard, these little things help get the job done.
When it comes to the baby, keeping active means changing things up frequently. We usually start with a few minutes on the gym mat for tummy time and muscle work and then move on to the exersaucer.
Playing with my little ones during these basic high-energy times is the secret to keeping me active!

My son loves to jump in his exersaucer! We also do baby yoga together and he accompanies me to Stroller Strides 2-3 times a week– I think it’s important to model a healthy lifestyle.

I love taking the little ones to the park. When they are too young to go, I get right on the floor with them. It’s always more fun on their level.
