being a kid

What kind of kiddy activities do you do when not being adult?

I still love to color. I would love to buy MYSELF a cabbage patch doll. I always get really excited about christmas stockings. And if I could I would still go trick-or-treating.

I almost forgot I love to do cartwheels, but these days if I try I usually pull something. And it is fun to stand on my hands under water.

I love to ride my bike....although, I am not as resilent as I used to be when I wreck, not that I do that alot, but I am no 8yr old!!

I love to jump on the bed. Cracks me up every time.

I can't ride a bike anymore... Maybe if I had training wheels.

Wow there are so many great things that I love to do in the spirit of doing something for my kid.

I looooooove the arcade game "Whack-A-Mole". There is something delightful about beating the daylights out of a cute fuzzy little creature. (Hmmm...Isn't this a trait of serial killers?)

Sidewalk chalk rocks.

The Harry Potter Levitating Challenge game has seen far more use by DH and me than by our son

Bicycling is fun. I just can't bring myself to put the pom-poms back on my bike.

Hmmmm...There is so much more.

Whenever we go home for a visit, I have to make a trip to the trampoline, just for old time's sake...

doing back summersaults in the swimming pool (I even dreamed about this last night!),

coloring in a color book - it never holds the kids attention long enough for me to get my 'fix'!!

reading fun kids books (I can hardly wait for my neighbor boy to finish his Harry Potter books so that I can borrow them when the new ones come out!!)

I like to color and put puzzles together.
I jumped on a moonwalk the other day at a party and had a really good time.
I also like to fix Barbie's hair.

I jumped on a moonwalk

What is that? Anyone remember the wet banana..? Ha ha

A moonwalk is one of those blow up things that has net surrounding it. You see them at parties and outdoor festivals.
What's funny, though, is that I was only about 6 weeks postpartum and had to quickly exit the moonwalk and head to the restroom--guess my bladder control wasn't quite what it used to be!
