Whining, Wii Fit, and OMGOSH Mercede NO!

Poor Cheyenne didn't get her special birthday post up :( But I took her out to eat, ate a spice I am allergic too and spent the rest of the evening curled up on the sofa, crying and whining for over 6 hours (not to mention the endless trips to the bathroom).

Child husband bought Cheyenne (and me) a Wii Fit. Wii Fit told Child Husband that his fitness level is that of a 40 year old, and he is only 28. That cracked me up. Wii Fit told cougar me that my fitness level is that of a 28 year old(and I turn 40 next week). Okay, I know that Wii Fit is a Liar. But let me bast in the glow for a bit.

Wii Fit did tell 4 of us that we were overweight (Wii Fit flew into the trash for a nap), only Mercede my not even 4'6, 76 pound girl girl was in "normal" range.

The really cool thing is that my 4 year old daughter did so well on one of the balance games. She got an Amateur scoring her first try (normally you just get Beginner).

I was able to crawl off the sofa long enough to get dirty foot prints on the Wii Fit pad, then I went back to whining.

I wonder if it will ever get used again?

In other news, school has only been in session for less than a week and Mercede just started High School. In that time, she has done so many things that I really want to beat discipline her for. I'm not going to go into them because they are so bad(even though ever one I tell about it laughs their butts off). But I knew the girl would be trying to see how much she can get away with. Last year on her bus, she mooned some kids and told them to "kiss her butt" (you know if I am tell you this story that the other ones must be really bad). How she did not get a bus ticket for that is beyond me. But her sister got a bus ticket for kissing her boyfriend on the bus. Course, Mercede has countless bus tickets, so guess she didn't need more. I could paper her wall with them. Her teacher and para's of past, thought the bus drivers were lying about her. I knew that if she can get away with something, she will. The teachers she had in the pass didn't let anything get by, but I'm afraid this year the teacher has no idea what she is in for. If I sign a note that the teacher can use duct tape, will that be legal?

I am just like all the others....I laughed out loud when I read that she mooned someone on the bus....your kids are always saying something to make me laugh!

I love Wii Fit....except I am the only fat Mii on there. The rest of my family lied and said they were taller than they are, so they are all skinny and I am a short fatty. I get satisfaction though knowing I am the Wii fit champ in Yoga and Hoola Hoop!

I hope you are feeling better today :)

I need me one of those Wii Fits.

LOL about the mooning. I fear I have some of the same coming to me with Ben. I'm really worried about it. I hope to learn from you how to let this roll off my back.

Unknown said...

Oh boy... You do have your hands full don't you?? Big hugs for you, and for the school year, and for the teacher...

I want a Wii Fit....

Marlo said...

Mercede has some spunk! I love it (and I can promote such silly behavior because I'm not her mother :) I love how honest and unrestricted your kids are.

I've wanted a wii fit for awhile but they seem to be hard to come by. Would you consider it a good investment? Might be something I'll keep an eye out for. I know some other bloggers have said that they love theirs and its a lot of fun.. but is it helping to get your family to exercise while they use it?

I saw your comment on my weight loss blog. I really need to step it up and get back into the groove of trying to eat right. Not sure I have time (haha I am so funny) to exercise but the least I can do is actually watch what I put in my mouth. I really wish I had kept running when I first started it. I bet I would be pretty good at it by now.

I want a wii fit. That is sooo on my christmas wish list.

Heather said...

I haven't tried the Wii Fit yet, but we LOVE our other Wii games. I've heard Fit is fun. I hope you feel better!!

I'm sorry you've been sick. Bummer.
I want a Wii Fit...Do you like it?
My son is the opposite on the bus, he's an angel at school, he's a monster. Go figure.

I sooooo want a Wii fit!

Well, I did change my blog URL, but I can't imagine why that would have any affect on your blogroll as long as you have it directed to the proper URL, which it seems to be. I'll have to look into it. Thanks for making aware!

I would really like to get a Wii, but you have me doubting the Wii fit. My brother n' law has Down's and Autism. Once my MIL took him to Mc. Donalds to play on the toys. Well he went up the slide and then one by one sent down every article of clothing he had on. That was the end of McDonalds :)

WheresMyAngels said...

Sinner, Mercede is our only skinny one!! lol And what is funny, is that in real life, she eats more than all of us. I haven't tried anything but the balance games so far.

Lori, my fear is that you will moon us! lol

mommaof4wife2r-Thanks for stopping by. It did rock that my fitness age was younger on the Wii, even if it ain't true.

Hot Tub, we need to get a SITS girl to hold a contest so you can win one!

Mindy, anytime you want to adopt a much older child, let me know;) I do like the Wii Fit so far. I'm going to join WEight Watchers soon, see if that helps.

Kori-see comment to Hot tub, but delete her name from the winning spot ;)

Heather, I feel much better and will probably eat the same stuff in a year and get sick again.

Christie, I do like it. Well Mercede is a monster in both places right now, but with the right teacher she could be an angel at school. I loved my stuff you sent me. There is a reason I ordered it and you will see later ;)

Sassy- See above comments to Hot Tub and Kori ;)

Adiel, driving me nuts it is. I still have something planned for you. Just got to get time to get it done. lol

Nicole, I posted over at your place :)

Traci said...

I swear I love Mercede! Gayla that is so stinking funny about her mooning those people on the bus. She has got to be Ashlyn's long lost sister. Those two are a lot alike! Ashlyn is almost 9 years old and still weighs 43 pounds. She eats like a man and it takes a big ol' football player and her mama to hold her down for x-rays... and we still could of used another man or two. Low muscle tone my arse, this chick has got some major strongness about her.

Casey's trio said...

Oh my...loving your sense of humor in this post. Sometimes ya just gotta laugh..especially when naughty kids are involved:)

Scott said...

I want to come to your house and play on the Wii Fit!! Wish you could have met us for drinks today. It was fun!

Tiffany said...

You are always so freakin' funny. Duct tape? Hahahahaha.

I love how you ask if the wii would ever get used again... that is so true.

latree said...

is Cheyenne OK now? crying for 6 hours must be very tiring...
poor girl.

Nicole said...

Thanks for commmenting back on my blog. Hope things are going better with Mercede. I'm sure every year brings new battles. Your children are adorable though.

Linda said...

Sounds like you just may need to brace yourself this year and hang on for the ride she's gonna take you on. I have a 20 and 23 year old...been there, done that!

Mrs4444 said...

Yeah, that would scare me; that she is making herself vulnerable in that way.

I'm excited to watch you learn the whole Wii Fit thing. I want one (I think) and will be watching your progress and reading your updates!

datri said...

I love my WiiFit -- even if it does tell me I'm obese! I can't wait for the kids to go back to school so I can get back to my WiiFit routine!

Staci said...

oh i am sooo sorry that happened, i have yet to find anything that i am allergic to!! knock on wood. But the whole wii thing sounds fun, we are considering getting one for our 7 year olds bday.....
