working out

So my husband, Josh, has been on this recent kick of riding like 30 miles a day on his bike. I have been on the recent kick of laying around when I have a spare minute. So now he is in better shape than me. My only exercise has been to run up 3 flights of stairs for my dreaded English class that Im always almost late for. My dear brother Nathan bought me a Wii Fit last year for Christmas that I quit doing in January because I was so over whelmed with school. So last week I decided to get back into doing the Wii Fit. You may or maynot know but on a Wii there are little characters that represent you called your Mii. My child loves to watch me do Wii fit because she loves the mii. There is a game that is a ski jump and that is her favorite to watch because there is snow and she just gets the biggest kick out of all the appause of the "croud" after each jump. She claps along and yells "yeah!"
So there is another exercise called the "jackknife." This exercise involves laying flat on your back and at the whistle raising both your shoulders and feet into a V shape and then lowering it. As I was doing this exercise yesterday Elise kept saying " mommy wad you dooin?" She finally came and layed down next to me and was raising her little fat feet up in the air when I did except her knees were all bent and it was just the funniest thing! As if doing that exercise wasnt hard enough WITHOUT a toddler trying to do with with me and me laughing through it. I wish Josh had been there to take a picture. Maybe I can get her to do it again with me when he is home and I'll get a picture.
Tonight is my New Testament final. I know what you are thinking "wow a religion class, you have been going to church every week of your life, you should be able to sleep through that" WRONG! There are all kinds of who wrote this book where?Where were they when they wrote it? Was it written before this other book? What year was it written in? Hopefully I'll be able to remember all that. Pray for me.

So I decided to start doing this whole blog thing because I was reading my cousin Danielle's blog and everytime I read it I feel like I'm about to pass out im laughing so hard. Now while there is no way that I could ever be as hilarious and clever as her I thought why not get some stuff off my chest and my other cousin Stephanie has asked me several times when im going to get a blog. So here it is.
I just handed in my 3rd and final "big" paper for this English class that I had to take. I can not even describe to you the incredible amount of relief associated with that. This time next week I will be totally done with this class. I already told Josh that we are either throwing a party to celebrate or we are going out to eat or something. So this class is supposed to be a freshman level class that I SOMEHOW missed. This proffessor at one point wanted 9 papers due in 4 day. This is for one class. How retarded.
In other news my child has the concept of the whole potty thing down. Today she took her diaper off and sat on the potty, she then pointed to the actual toilet and said "Mommy's potty" then pointed at her potty chair and said " Ewise's potty" but she still hasnt figured out the technical side to it I guess. She also has decided to "ride' her stuffed horse around the house but will stop long enough to say "cheese" as we take pictures. I'll put them on here when I get my camera they are pretty funny.
I recently bought her the movie Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. She LOVES Dopey, but he isnt dopey he is "baby' no matter how many times I tell her that his name is dopey she still calls him baby. She also loves the song "hi ho!" which she calls "Heee ho!' Yesterday that movie was playing in her room and right before this song came on she ran across the house to her room yelling " hee ho hee ho! hurry hurry" cause she didnt want to miss the song. It was hilarious. Anyways it is now time to go and study for this final I have tonight, perhaps in time my posts will be less boring and more orginized. lol
