What about activity?

I love exercising.  I love the burn while I'm working out.  I love the exhaustion afterward.  I love the energy and good mood that lasts all day long.  And I love the morning after ache.  Now that i have two small children, it's really hard to get it done.  DS is 4 and DD is almost 1; so you can imagine what it takes to get us all packed up, out the door and in the car.  I've considered making it 'me-time'.  It would be really nice to have 20-30 minutes a day to myself to workout, or just go for a walk.  But for me, it's just not realistic.  I'm going to have to make it a family affair.  A few blocks from my house we have an indoor track and playground.  I'd like to make it part our routine to go for a run/walk, then let the kids play for a while.  At least a few times a week.
I go home to my parents once a week too.  When I'm there, my sister and I try to take our boys to play tennis early in the morning.  None of us are any good, but we have a blast! And I get a great burn.  If I'm going to involve the kids, it's gotta be fun.  Do you have any ideas?
