What I Really Want To Do For My 30th Bday

I've always wanted to learn Capoeira. Make fun of me if you like, I know the video is a little cheesy, but you don't see many girls doing it. I think it's really cool to watch and since I speak Portuguese I feel like I have some sort of little tie to Brazil. There are only a couple things standing in the way of me learning Capoeira:
1. I'm pretty sure it's on the list of NOT approved activities for a pregnant woman.
2. Even if I wasn't pregnant, I'm not sure I'd have the guts to really do it, unless I were 10-15 years younger.

Sorry, I don't know how to imbed a video into my blog like everyone else does. I do, however, know how to make my links so that when you click on them they open in another window and I think that is pretty useful!

I was just so sure you wanted to see the world's largest naked bike ride for your birthday. I am pretty sure that is approved for pregnant women ;) oh well. Capoeira is pretty dang cool!! I wish I could learn it too.

Good grief girl! You have to be 10-15 years younger to do Capoeira? Your only 30 I know I make fun of you for being old but really its not that old!

Well, I don't know many 30 yr olds doing back flips and those kinds of acrobatics, unless they've been working at it for several years.
But I'm glad you don't think I'm that old:)

Wow, that is a random wish. I am pretty sure I will never in my life wish to do that! I do have to note that I LOVE that your link opens in a new window--Way to go liz!

Yep, it's cool and I agree with Inger-lis, you can totally do it pregnant...maybe not 7 months or more, but now for sure! I say go for it!!!
Don't forget to post your video when you've mastered it! ;-)

If I can look like her after learning, sign me up. I'd love to see you trying that with your preggo belly.

You always surprise me with your ideas. Well, if you need to hear another pregnancy story call me...I'll try to make it as positive as possible.
