Where do I begin?

Lately I've been trying to decide where I want to go fitness wise; running, lifting, both? For years I only ran then when I was introduced to lifting I gained a new respect for what my body could do! As a mother to a newborn and 5 year old I am finding it difficult to get everything done AND have the energy to get out of the house and sweat. I am also fearful of bringing my newborn to a gym while he is still so young. 

Since having my son I have been focusing mainly on pelvic floor exercises. (I was very adamant about going my kegels throughout my pregnancy and I know that I benefited from doing them). EVERYONE should do them, pregnant or not! I've also been taking short walks and stretching. It took about a week for my body to feel relaxed but the stretching is doing its job! 
I still have 2 more weeks until I get cleared for regular workouts but I want to have a head start on things so I don't put it off. After the birth of my first son exercise helped me cope with postpartum depression and lose all my baby weight plus 10 more pounds. Starting sooner rather than later is best!

I also have the jogging stroller of my dreams so until I can get into the gym on a regular basis I'll be following this plan to gain endurance and get used to working out in the heat again:

Monday: Cardio + Strength Training
Tuesday: Cardio
Wednesday: Cardio + Strength Training
Thursday: Cardio
Friday: Cardio +  Strength Training
Saturday: Rest
Sunday: Rest

My strength training will be done using my home equipment (weights, med ball, bench set).
