Pilates. Check.

Getting better at the above. Check.

Does playing wii tennis count as exercise?

I think it might if your children must sit on the couches 5 feet back from where you are playing so they don't get hurt.

You increase your cardio even more when you yell at them to get off the &*^%%&^*()( floor so you don't trip over them. Or so you tell them that b/c in reality you really don't want them to mess up the fantastic volley you have going.

You still lose. Your 8 year old daughter and 7 year old son can still kick your ass in the above mentioned.

That's allright b/c you can kick your 3 year old child's butt in tennis. That makes him cry though. Which takes the fun out of any kind of win.

You lose either way. But you are a better mom for it. Anyhow you can kick your husband's butt in wii games anyday. He doesn't cry or pout.

Yet.

Do they do Pilates Workout on Wii? I somehow envision such a game where you get points and advance to higher levels for holding tough poses.

Everyone kicks my butt in mancala. Which requires sitting on my ass for extended periods of time. Reading you lately makes me feel as if I've burned calories, though, so that's cool for me.

It's character building to beat your 3 year old, time and time again. Life isn't about having all the wins handed to you on a plate.

Soudns like a bloody good workout.
