Spring Break Fun

There is nothing like a day off from school. Mariko and I took Natalie and Kyle to Playwise in Columbia. It is this huge warehouse with all kinds of different themed areas and stuff to play with. There is a real fire engine and ambulance the kids can climb on, plenty of slides and playground stuff, and even a giant room size sandbox to play in. The kids had a blast and we can't wait to go back.

Wii Rock

The new favorite game is Rayman Raving Rabbids 2. It is hilarious and fun and makes you look like a complete fool while you are playing it. Grammy and Grandpa even got into it.

I Know I Will Regret This...

Kyle likes to play his Laurie Berkner CD and dance before bed. It is part of our night-time routine. Tonight I told him to shake his booty - and he did - it is really cute, he shakes his bottom with a lot of emphasis. He wanted me to dance with him and then he wanted me to shake my booty...which I did and then he exclaimed "Mommy, your booty goes fast".

A Day At The Park

The start of spring around here. Kyle rode his big wheel to the little park on Sunday.




It was a nice morning. Apparently a little too nice, Kyle didn't want to leave the little park at all, and he let everyone in a three house radius know that in no uncertain terms that he did not want to leave the little park. Two is fun.

Play-Doh

Playing with play-doh requires great concentration .


Every single solitary piece of play-doh equipment must be laid out on the table regardless of whether you can reach it.

Chase Game

Kyle's new favorite game is chase game. It is an incredibly complex game that involves running around the dining room, into the kitchen and around the island, then into the family room. You do this multiple times...like a hundred. It ends with Brad catching Kyle and log rolling him from the air onto the couch. A picture is worth a thousand words.
