American Gladiators!!

Huge fans of that show here!! The old show and the new, and I'm soooo excited that it's back!! Something I didn't know though...we have a couple of our very own lil' gladiators in the Osborn household!!! Check em' out!!

Her daddy's been doing push ups and other exercises lately and this is what I've been finding her doing throughout the house all day long!! She also gets out his exercise bands and does "workouts," it's all very cute but she does pretty good too... just look at that form!!
Ok so maybe form breaks a little on the way down, lol!!
And this little monkey LOVES to try to climb up big sister's slide bed... and he's getting pretty good too!! I have to keep socks on him all the time cuz barefooted he makes it up in a flash!! Well the other night I come in after their bath to find him getting pretty far up in his footed jammies...
He would climb and try sooooo hard, almost get to the very top,
then down he'd go.................

All the way back to the bottom in fits of giggles and squeals!! It kinda reminds me of the "travelator" at the end of the Eliminator coarse on the show!! Gets em' every time!!!
He does this over and over again, and much to my surprise, he never gets frustrated that he can't make it all the way up!! Well he hasn't gotten frustrated so far... we'll see how long that lasts!!

They've both been "doing" my turbo jam workouts with me in the a.m.'s too!! I love it and it's too cute!! He mainly dances and bobs and bounces around to the music but Alora does the punches and kicks too... very very fun!!! Great motivation for me to keep it up huh!!!

Too cute! Yeah, I think watching Xanderman dance around would probably motivate me too:)

Adorable. They both would probably put me to shame in Turbo Jam!

Gladiators is still on??? Your kids are so cute - I can't believe you have them in "boot camp" already! Can't wait to see you and your precious family next weekend!

Haha, Jason loves that show, too. How cute is Xander in footsie pj's?! The cuteness is almost too much! And, Alora can do a really good push up...she is both tough and girlie, a great combination!

I love the pics of him going up (& down) the slide. And he's all smiles, of course! I have a feeling Alora will give any guy out there a run for his money. When Jordan was that age Todd mentioned maybe we should be praying then for her poor future hubby! ha.

Ugh! My husband loves that new American Gladiators show. I just can't get into it. Just something about those gladiator women looking AND sounding like men that gives me the heebie-jeebies. :)

Okay Alora can definitely do a better push up than me! She is so cute! Oh and I love the pj's Xander is wearing! Super cute!
