that is the question I have been asking myself since Christmas!
Mrs. Claus thought it would be a good idea to get TJ a Wii for Christmas this year..."something fun that we can all do together" she thought. She spent time convincing Santa that this would be the perfect gift...no, he had not asked for it, but she just knew he would love it! Finally, Santa was on board and he drove to Best Buy to pick up all of the necessities that you MUST have in order to play the Wii.
Fast forward to Christmas morning...Thomas is so excited he is up and getting pumped up on caffine while TJ and I are still trying to get our beauty sleep. Well, I finally decided I would get up because I just knew Thomas was going to wake up TJ since he is not-so-quietly hanging out in the living room just waiting. So, Thomas and I sit and wait...wait...and wait a little longer. Finally, about 8:30 we hear TJ rustling around in his bed and both of us run in there to make sure he is up! Once we remind him that Santa has come to the house, he is ready to go! We all make our way back into the living room together. Thomas and I show TJ where his gifts from Santa are and his first response is: "Santa didn't bring me much presents!" Yes, I know, need to continue with the teaching of gratefulness and thankfulness...still working on that! So, he begins to open his "meager" pile of gifts from Santa and Mom & Dad. This should show you how excited he was about the Wii and all of it's accessories that Santa spent his hard earned dough on...
Fast forward about a week after Christmas...
This...
is all...
I see!
As you see above, it is irresistable to every man...regardless of age! His Papa came over one Sunday...they played for 5...yes, FIVE hours! I am very happy that Mrs. Claus was right, because she always likes to be right, but I didn't plan on her being this good! The Wii enforcer I have now become.
Sounds like our house, only I'm guilty too! We have family bowling tournaments a lot. Bert cries when I beat him. :-)
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like my house too. Although I have to admit that I am the most addicted to The Super Mario Borthers game. We usually play about an hour a night. If I didn't limit it, Drew would be happy to play all day.
