Diary of a Not-So Wimpy Kid

We try to stay active around here.  Exercise is great for the body and the mind, yes?  And there's no time to be lazy when you have a very active baby. 

Very active and did I mention very strong?  I'm talkin' ogre strength  (He crushes plastic cups for a hobby).  Seriously, it's a wonder I still have all of my fingernails and facial features.   

But anyway, grab your racket and your shuttlecock (I just wanted to say that) and come join us on the move!





Here is our personal trainer, Sportacus.
He comes on the PBS Sprout channel every day so we don't even have to shell out crazy dough.  We work out on a budget here.





We stretch and try different yoga positions.
(Yoga of the "birthday suit" variety not recommended for participants over 12 months of age) 

We lift weights.  Well, some of us ARE the weights around here.

We play games. 
 
 
Yes, my baby ENJOYS having a plush football tossed into his forehead.  I TELL you, this kid is a little ruffian.  And then it's on to my favorite part.  The cool down. 

Relaxing is a form of mental exercise, you know. 

"I'm in good shape.  Round is a shape, right?"
