The family Christmas present of a Wii has caused a lot of hub bub at our house. First on New Year's Eve it called me "obese". Overweight I can handle, but I thought obese was a little much. So, I began to cut back as I try to anyway on New Year's day. I have been trying to follow a pattern I learned a long time ago with a progam called Weigh Down Workshop. It is a Christian based weight loss/lifestyle progam that encourages cutting down on portions and making changes to your eating habits, but not necessarily what you eat. Anyway, I have cut back.
So today, I tried the Wii Fit again and it actually had me about 5 pounds lighter which put me in the "overweight" category as opposed to the "obese" one. This is good news, but I have to believe that it must have been an issue with it the first time I tried it. Now our family is busy taking turns using the Wii Fit. Carson has enjoyed it a lot. He was the Ski Jump champ for awhile. Then we figured out how to play and we all got better. Now Troy has the lead and Carson has thrown a "Wee bit" of a Fit. We have to work on our Sportsmanship.
Ephraim doesn't get too involved with the Wii, though, he has tried to get on while Troy was on it. I did want to share that he went to the movies with Carson, a friend of Carson's and Troy yesterday. At the movies Troy said another little boy sat down by Ephraim and asked him what his name was. To which Ephraim responded "I'm God's Mighty Warrior". The boy said "What, No, What is your name?". Ephraim finally said, "Ephraim".
That Ephraim, though he can really throw a fit, he seems to know whom he belongs. Just as I have said before with him, even when you think he isn't' paying attention to devotions, he really is. The knight in shining armor outfits we got them for Christmas to reinforce our devotional theme did what we wanted it to do.
Now these Mighty Warriors need to take a break and have something for supper. Carson is turning off the Wii and now it is my turn to log off the blog. Happy New Year!
