Slacker!

So, I'm a bit of a slacker.  My parents are here for Christmas/New Years and we have been just enjoying the down time! 

Some small news - we found out that in May/June - we will be moving to San Diego where Aaron will be stationed at Balboa Navy Medical Center.  He will be doing a GI fellowship.  3 years in San Diego.  I'm super excited that we will get a break from the snow.

Speaking of snow - enjoy this!

Media Free

Just a heads up. We are going media free (kinda) this week. It starts in 45 minutes and will go through Saturday night. What does this entail? No computer, TV or Video Games at all. I know Aaron will need to use the computer after the kids go to bed some nights, but for the most part, we will try to keep them all turned off.

Why? The kids are too dependant on media. They need to remember what it is like to play with their toys, read their books and play board games with the family. After this week, they will need to earn media time. We are starting a system this week for them to earn rewards and they will have the choice of media (Wii and computer) time.

The exception will be if I hear anything about Maggie. I will break the rule (after the kids are in bed) and post any updated information on the blog. Have a great week and I will "see" you all next week!

Wii Fit

Grandpa & Grandma Burnside got the kids a Wii fit for Christmas. We broke it out last night and had such a blast. The boys like the ski jumping game. They thought it was funny when Mommy was doing the Hula Hoop and cracked up when Daddy hit the soccor balls with his head.

Even Nate loved to play it! (p.s. That's Elmo on his diaper, not a crack!)
