Sports + Wii = Fun (and you can win!)

by RookieMom Heather on November 18, 2009

in Announcements,Geeky,Los Angeles,Mommy

We were already fans of the Wii for new parents long before we heard of Wii Fit. But now, geeking out with video games and trying to be fit shredheads with Jillian are two great tastes that taste great together. Thanks to Sports Authority, we’re giving away one Wii Fit Plus Board and Jillian Michaels’ new fitness game.

Sports Authority is opening up a new Wii Fit area of their store, called the Wii Fit Plus experience, where you can go and try out some of the games. Moms having more fun? We couldn’t agree more!

If you’re anywhere near the Sports Authority in Torrance, CA on Thursday morning, Jillian Michaels will be there in person whipping folks into shape and giving away video games. The event starts at 9:30 a.m. and runs all morning.

I’m always home with my kids and never really get me time. I think the only me time I have is when I’m sleeping or in the bathroom.

Sarah Lehan November 26, 2009 at 10:24 pm

Mine are out and gone so I always have lots of ME time. Long, long ago I would keep a book handy so any odd moments I could read. Thanks for the contest.

I usually have me time when the kids go to bed. Which means I stay up late and may be a little bit cranky and in need of mega amounts of coffee in the a.m.

Vicki Wurgler November 27, 2009 at 1:07 pm

naptime and bedtime!

Megan November 27, 2009 at 2:50 pm

I nap when she naps and my husband helps me to have naptime too!

Megan November 27, 2009 at 2:52 pm

I nap when my daughter naps and my husbands helps ma find time too. I have a short drive to work so there is no relax time.

Robin B November 27, 2009 at 5:02 pm

Me time usually occurs at night when child is sleeping. I read for 30 minutes before I go to sleep to unwind from the day. I enjoy baking and cutting grass to keep my mind off the frustrations of work.

Daniel M November 27, 2009 at 6:21 pm

usually only late at night

It’s helpful to spike those baby bottles so the little ones drift off to la-la land quicker. This provides ‘me time’.

Kelly Ann T. November 27, 2009 at 7:34 pm

I get up earlier than everyone and take a shower then I have my breakfast while I read a book. I also go with other women to a girls night out once a month. A friends older child watches the kids and one of the dads is there too.

Alice C November 27, 2009 at 7:55 pm

going to work :0) I would go crazy without it

Julie Moe November 27, 2009 at 8:21 pm

My me time is when my husband takes my son and lets me relax!

Angela G November 27, 2009 at 9:15 pm

I stay up late after the kids go to bed. Sometimes I am so grateful for the quiet that I stay up until 2am!

Jen V November 28, 2009 at 7:25 am

I find “me time” as a parent by having a daily “quiet time”. My kids are free to read or play quietly in their rooms but they have to let mom have some alone time. It may be only a half hour or an hour but it helps me get through the day.

I try and have me time on weekend mornings when my husband gets up with the kids. I sleep late, read in bed and watch some bad TV!

julieh November 28, 2009 at 10:09 am

When they take a nap, then I take me time!

Wendy November 28, 2009 at 11:17 am

Being of mom of 5 active boys, I make “me time” in the morning before they get up. I usually try to wake about an hour before they do. This allows me time to do whatever I want each morning.

Gayle J November 28, 2009 at 1:40 pm

My me time is when everyone is in bed fast asleep

Darcie K November 28, 2009 at 2:12 pm

My “me” time is usually when my daughter is at school, or when she is asleep.

I get up 2 hours before everyone else to get some “me” time!

CC November 28, 2009 at 5:08 pm
Julie November 28, 2009 at 6:51 pm

Naptime is my time :)

Lori November 28, 2009 at 7:06 pm

What free time? I wish!

cwaltz November 28, 2009 at 8:50 pm

My husband and I alternate “me time”. We both realize that in order to be at our peak that we need to occasionally have moments to recharge.

I don’t find much free time, but I get up a half hour early, that gives my enough time to work out, other then that there is no free time :)

Fortunately my children still take naps after lunch. So I do get about an hour and a half during the day of me time. I usually spend that time catching up on the computer.
I am also fortunate enough to have a husband who is great about helping out.
So once he is home he will watch them so that I can go running for an hour and take a shower afterwards.
I would love to be able to add this to my routine.

Thank you so much for the chance to win.

Me time, happens when the kids are asleep. Or while they’re in school if they’re older.

Soha Molina November 28, 2009 at 10:08 pm

I have found “me” time by joining a jazzercise class and attend it at least once a week. If I win this prize, maybe I’ll have more ‘mii’ time.

It is kind of hard to find some me time. I get some when my daughter is sleeping or on the rare occassion she is at school and I am not working.

Constance Swearingen November 29, 2009 at 1:14 am

My me time is locked in the shower room in a bubble bath with a good book. Since we have a seperate room between two bathrooms with only the tub in it, no one has an excuse to bother me when I am in the tub!

My me time is about 2 hours in the morning before everyone wakes up.

Christie November 29, 2009 at 4:12 am

You have to stay up later and do without less sleep! Schedule grandma overnights too!

Gloria S November 29, 2009 at 6:58 am

After you have kids the only “me” time is after they go to bed or when you are driving to work.

Erma November 29, 2009 at 7:19 am

We everyone has left for school and work that’s my me time.

Robin November 29, 2009 at 7:20 am

The only time I can find some me time is after the kids are asleep

R Hicks November 29, 2009 at 7:27 am

Me time is almost impossible to find. However, when they fall asleep We do have a little time for ourselves.

What is this ‘me-time’ you speak of? Is there such a thing? Sleep is the only time and sometimes not even that. At least with this, I get to spend family time with peace and exercise at the same time. Thanks!

Jennifer November 29, 2009 at 8:44 am

My parents have been excellent volunteering to take my 2 month old so I still get to enjoy some of both me alone time and hubby and me time!

Craig Johnson November 29, 2009 at 10:20 am

I do it late at night – it’s the only time I can do it!!

Soha Molina November 29, 2009 at 10:23 am

My tine is usually when my daughter is napping1
