indoor entertainment

I am so tired of winter. You know how the novelty wears off after Christmas and you're just so done with it? Yeah, that's us. We actually considered going for a bike ride with the kids yesterday b/c our temperature gage said 45 degrees! Boy were we glad we didn't after we went outside. Brrrrr. We decided on a walk instead and it sure was chilly.

So the rest of the time we're stuck inside.

One thing that's become a favorite of Noah's is the Wii. Terry got me a Wii Fit for Christmas. Here are all of our Wii Me's! Terry is sleeping b/c he hasn't done any work-outs for a while =) Isn't Evie just SO cute?! Oh, and little Snap and Noah. I love it.

So here is the boy. He is running in place after a cat on the screen that leads him through a course on the island. Lately he's been doing the advanced version so it takes a good 7-10 minutes!

He also likes the bike riding one. For that he has to run in place on the balance board thing and I use the Wii remote to guide him to the different flags he has to get. Sometimes we might jump into the water, or off a bridge, or off a mountain. =)

We brought in these bubbles from outside the other night. Of course, we had to thaw them out in the microwave and that might have done something to their molecular structure b/c they didn't form as well as they should have. Evie had fun at any rate. She was like, "b...u...b...b...l...e." Look at that concentration!

Oops! Bubble is gone! Oh, do you think I should get bangs cut out for her? This was Thursday, when I work, so I wasn't there to fix her hair =)

What kind of toys does Evie like?
Anything that Noah plays with.
Here she is attempting to make a track just like big brother. Though, she's running out of table...


And she's got this track upside down =)

But they had fun.

  1. Asher likes the running on Wii Fit too. He ALWAYS smokes us in the 2 person run. Has Noah done the one where it asks you questions at the end of the race? That's fun.

  2. I was always like that with Terry when we were little. I wanted to do what he was doing because he wouldn't play with me unless it was boy things...like GI Joes, Ninja Turtles, etc.
