Building good habits...

Today I completed 30 minutes on the ellipitical machine while Ava played in her "chicken"...aka...Kitchen. While I was sweating and begging God to just get through the next 30 minutes of my life, Ava was happily pretending and climbing on the exercise bike like a monkey. She would say "excuse me" as she passed me...as if I would or could run her over. I had my headphones in, singing {if you could call it that}-very badly to some of my favorite songs. When I would stop singing to catch my breath, she would say "sing some more mommy". I guess your mother's voice is the sweetest sound ever because no one else in their right mind would want to hear the noises coming out of my mouth :)

So, now to get to the good habits... Once I was done and off the elliptical, Ava wanted to try it. I thought sure, why not...she'll never be able to straddle that machine when the pedals move anyway. NOT the case. That little turkey was able to keep up with me moving the arms/pedals. She was even strong enough to move the pedals herself! She's gonna be a little workout queen before too long...
