Family Fun

Ever since Christmas, this house has had a new bedtime theme....boardgames. The kids banked on board games this year and so we've been putting the babes to bed and letting the older two stay up to play a game.
Tonight, after making a BIG fort in the living room, having a big breakfast dinner complete with syrup and powdered sugar and trying to settle down for our game, poor Ethan just couldn't consentrate on playing and was super hyper (a HUGE difference from last night!)...after a lot of requests to try to focus and calm down, he jumped out of his chair, almost fell, and then leaped back into his chair saying "Gosh...I'm such a silly spaz!"...that made us all laugh and he was laughing, too, but it just made me feel sorry for the little guy...
(By the way...the thing sticking off the top of the fort is a CHIM-I-NEY)...

haah We got Trouble too - well actually Brayden did...but he calls it "Troublemaker". And he LOVES to play it. We play it nearly every night/day also.
Alex got Clue, and we've played that as well but it's harder for the little kids to play. And Owen got Cooties. That's a fun little kid game too..no reading required. :)
