Day 17

Me and Alex!

Today I had a workout buddy and it was way more fun. I did my balance test and lost .2 pounds (of course it was 12 hours earlier than on a weekday) and Alex did his balance test and had gained a bit --- which is what you want your kids to do, right? I was a healthy 32 Wii years old, he was a rather unhealthy 27, LOL. Stupid game gave him the steadiness balance test, so of course he was destined to fail that one! Alex, stand still and don't talk for 30 seconds... ;)

So, together we did the two person run, Alex on the floor, me on the treadmill. Then I did two rounds of the Advanced Step Class (while Alex "ran" on the treadmill at the lowest speed I could set it without him realizing I had set it on a very babyish speed). The I boxed while Alex chattered away. We finished up with another two player run. It's a bit distracting doing a work-out with my 5-year old, but nice to get some one on one time with him while Cory watched the younger two upstairs.

We ended our workout just as Kirstin and Connor discovered where we had sneaked off to and decided to give me the guilt trip tears, toddlers are so good at.
