Playing with the Footes and Exercising with Kids

Yesterday we had the Footes over for the first time in a month! We usually see them much more often, but first Megan was sick, then we were in OR, then they were in AR . . . Anyway, the kids thought it had been much too long! I did too! The girls played and played together. They came up with the most unique outfits ever :) I got some pictures of their "Fancy Nancy party".


Last night the kids all decided to help me with my work out. Megs and Kylie did crunches, push-ups, and squats with me, then Jack and Beth decided they needed in on the action too. Have you ever tried doing v-ups with a baby sitting on your tummy??? Well, it's not easy - especially when the said baby is laughing hysterically and keeps starting to fall off :) My second set of crunches were easier than the v-ups as I don't really need my hands for the crunches and could therefore hold Jack steady. It was quite a work-out! I'd be willing to bet that it tripled the effect the exercises had on me!
