Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!

I got Nathan a Wii for his birthday. Frankly, I didn't know what to get him, and it sounded fun... especially since I had heard that James and Harrison were playing bowling on the Wii at the Neipert house. So we are now a proud owner of a Wii, and Nathan got it hooked up about four days ago... make that TWO days ago, on Wednesday. James is in LOVE with the bowling game and would literally play it for hours if I let him. He bowled a few games earlier today with Uncle Rich, and then after Rich left, he played probably about three more times (games are really quick). I finally told him it needed to be turned off, and that maybe he could play with Daddy when he got home from work. Of course, when Nathan walked in today from work James told him to go change out of his work clothes (usually the first thing Nathan does when he gets home) and play the Wii with him. I had to giggle because Nathan made James sit through watching Daddy play a game of golf before they started bowling. James was golfing too, after a while, so he'll probably want me to put that on for him tomorrow. Sheesh.
Uncle Rich was laughing with me today at James and his bowling mannerisms. The kid doesn't stand still. He basically is jumping up and down the whole time! "He" (James' personal avatar) steps up to the lane, does the bowling motion and then starts jumping and continues to jump in place until he has to stand still in order to throw the ball. It's so funny!
