Last night, daddyless and all, we didn't even notice the TV was missing. We spent about 2 hours working on workbooks (couldn't believe it!) and then browsed through the Magic Cabin catalog (my fav kids' toy catalog) for ideas for Christmas. We spent at least an hour on the Magic Cabin thing. We enjoyed ourselves immensely!<BR/>Mrs. G: unfortunately for me, my kids already know how to knit better than me---they attend a Waldorf school!<BR/>Marie: You're childless, right?<BR/>Painted Maypole: going over to view my tag now!<BR/>Family Adventure: I love that idea! I just saw in a catalog Bingo cards in German and French. I am definitely getting those! what a way to make bingo more interesting.<BR/>Dragonfly: thanks for the visit, will visit you soon!Kristi Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15749922455225303462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3010282931485762483.post-71334912298545138432007-10-28T01:53:00.000-07:002007-10-28T01:53:00.000-07:00I'm just starting to make an effort to keep the tv...I'm just starting to make an effort to keep the tv off when the Little Mister (4.5 months) is awake. I never minded if he just glanced at it before, but now he's turning to watch it. I know he doesn't understand what he's watching, but there are so many better things to stimulate him!! So, when he's playing by himself on the floor in the living room, I listen to an audiobook instead.<BR/><BR/>But I will admit that, when he naps, I often pop a movie into the dvd player. :)<BR/><BR/>Hope you have a great weekend..the dragonflyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00910969956758977269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3010282931485762483.post-63841007005459049732007-10-28T01:01:00.000-07:002007-10-28T01:01:00.000-07:00Ah, good old Go Fish!

It turns the most mundane card game into a hoot trying to pronounce these names. Of course, the kids don't really bother. <BR/><BR/>Still, whatever works, right?! :)<BR/><BR/>Hope you're having a good Sunday.<BR/><BR/>HeidiFamily Adventurehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00093360285075029799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3010282931485762483.post-33317916721818237052007-10-27T20:48:00.000-07:002007-10-27T20:48:00.000-07:00"you gotta shake, shake, shake your sillies out......"you gotta shake, shake, shake your sillies out..." ;)<BR/><BR/>I've tagged you over at my placepainted maypolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06446625015003854710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3010282931485762483.post-40404360595868645512007-10-27T19:44:00.000-07:002007-10-27T19:44:00.000-07:00Why not just get rid of the TV?
