Wii are in trouble now

Ever since our church did a series that played off of a wii theme, our son has talked constantly about getting one.  For months I have heard about the wii, why he needs the wii, what games he likes to play at Luke's house, what games he would play if he had a wii... etc.  So, I mention last week to his grandparents that I had a birthday/Christmas idea for him.

I should have known better.

Granddaddy Pete and Mimi decided he needed a birthday present early this year and got him a wii and several games this past weekend.  His birthday is 4 months away!  Mimi has always wanted to give him presents in the summer or fall since he basically shares a birthday with Jesus.  Plus, we happened upon a good deal.

He was shocked and beyond excited!  (I think Daddy was pretty excited, too!)  In no time they were racing around playing MarioCart.  Now, I have to play the bad guy and set time limits because he seriously would play it all day.  And, Jackson would too.  :)  Mommy may get a turn someday.

Hannah enjoyed all the excitement, loves pushing the buttons, and pretending the wheel and nunchuks are telephones.  But then again, she pretty much pretends to talk on the phone with every toy.  She tilts her head and says "hi-ya.  Eh?  Dada.  Dada.  Eh?" 

No idea where she got that from. 

Thanks Mimi and Granddaddy Pete!
