I Could Make a Fortune. . .

I've made a HUGE discovery! I've found the BEST exercise you can do to lose weight and build muscle. It's called taking two young children to the photo studio to have their pictures made. I'm thinking of making a video to specifically outline the program. Here's how it goes:

1. It all starts when you rack your brain before you call the studio trying to decide what time is best to photograph both children (separately AND together) when they will both be in reasonably good moods.
2. The day of the appointment, bathe both children and groom them in 30 minutes or less.
3. Pack the bag - don't forget a brush (and in SOME people's cases hairbows - alas, I have no opportunity for hairbows), the right kind of socks, and antipersperant (for you, of course).
4. Schlep everyone to the car.
5. Arrive at the place too early.
6. Try to keep the children from getting upset while "taking turns" with the 25 other children in the room who want to play with the two toys the "studio" has invested in.
7. Go in the room.
8. Dance around to get kid #1 to smile.
9. Snatch kid #1 off the table and change his clothes.
10. Dance around for kid #2.
11. Throw kid #1 on the table with kid #2.
12. Dance around for both kids.
13. Snatch kid #2 off the table.
14. Dance around for kid #1's shots in the 2nd outfit (only if you are VERY brave).
15. Schlep everyone out of the room and stand while holding 25 lb. weight (or in my case non-walking baby), look at pictures, and stand on kid #2 to keep him from going nuts!
16. Stagger out to the car and collapse - you've reached total muscle failure - CONGRATULATIONS!
