A Wii, a weird smile, el libro, and a fat lip

After about 4 weeks of calling Wal-Mart (almost) every day at 10am (when they unload their delivery truck). We finally got a Wii! The kids had saved most of their Christmas money to get one. I'm not a big fan of video games, because I think they can turn kids in to zombies, but this game is different. You have to get up and move to play it! Here they boys are bowling I think. We've really enjoyed it as a family. For Valentine's Day, I gave Joel 'Guitar Hero'. This is a game that comes with a 'guitar' and you have to play the notes as they come down the screen. If you miss too many, you get booed off the stage! He loves it. I got a brand new flat screen monitor for the computer. Those of you who've seen our old one will know it was about time!

Lily has become quite sassy, dramatic, and a camera hog lately. I can't get a picture of the boys with out her running over to get in to the picture. She has just started using this weird little smile when a camera comes out. She pulls back the corners of her mouth and bares her teeth. It's cute and hideous at the same time. Pictures don't do it justice.

The kids all sat down one day for Liam to read books to them. He and Luke can write down all the books they read on a log for school. They can earn a free Pizza Hut pan pizza when they read enough. They all looked so cute lined up with their books! Yes, Luke is wearing a helmet. Joel bought him a new bike helmet the other day (his was falling apart) and he wanted to wear it everywhere!

Poor Liam had a little accident at church the other night. He was playing tag in the gym and ran right in to the metal cart used to haul around the round tables. One of his front top teeth was hurting him and bleeding around it. He had a pretty good fat lip too. He must be growing. He's been eating two of everything at dinnertime, he's clumsy, and his pants are looking too short again.

I'd love to hear from all of you. Miss you lots!!! XO, Stefani
