Spring Break, Wii and MiMi

Per our last post, we ventured to the M's game last night. I walked down from work, while Steph and the Girls found a prime parking spot just 1/2 block from the Stadium. We gobbled down Hot Dog and Kettle Corn and then braved the COLD weather for the game. They finally closed the roof in about the 2nd inning and it helped, but we had to splurge on Hot Chocolate to stay warm. Maddie, on the other hand, opted for Dippin Dots! BTW, they Won 4-1.

Aside from the game, it has been a busy week for Maddie on spring break. We had softball and bible study on Tuesday, then an all day outing with Nana J on Wednesday. Today is lunch with friends, and tomorrow we have a get together. We might try and hit the pass for our annual sledding outing on Saturday. We shall see. In her spare time, she is practicing her Wii skills....yes, we finally found a Nintendo Wii. After weeks of calling and going to Target, Costco, etc, Steph got some inside scoop that Costco at SouthCenter was getting a shipment in. I called first thing on Monday, and they didn't have the shipment yet, but they did have 1 more in stock and they put it on hold. We got it hooked up that night and had our first bowling match!

Finally, big news on the MiMi (that means pacifier) for KK...we are going on 1 week now with no MiMi. We "lost" it one day and she made it through the night. We actually could not find it that night...although we did find a number of spares later....so we were not technically lying. Either way, she has done great without it and in a visit to the Dentist this week (another spring break activity) she got a certificate!

That's all for now. Let hope the sun makes it up to Seattle soon.

Sounds like a Wii party is in store for all of us! I've got one too and you can save your Mii to your remote and take it to others to play each other. LOVE IT!!! My arm is killing me from Tennis...I have no life after the Wii....haha!

Wait till I bring over American Idol...super fun!

Hope to see you guys soon. : )
