Expensive Weekend

All the boys have a Nintendo DS and they LOVE to play mario on it. They are also very good. The problem is that Hayes will sometimes get frustrated and will throw his. So, the other day he threw his and it hit the fireplace. Boom, it is broken. Oh great!

Then, Ben has a hammer and has been hammering all over the place. Well, guess where he hammered? On the tv in the play room Boom, broken. Oh great!

I think the money to replace these items should come out of their college fund :)

Seriously, who knew it would be so costly this weekend.

Sunday Dinner

Last night at dinner Ben tried to eat his finger. When he initially bit it, we did not know what happened and I thought he was going to pass out from holding his breath. As everyone knows, Ben likes to start a cry, hold his breath, and pass out. Weird child. Anyway, Ryan figures it out and we ask him how he is etc... and he lets out this scream that was so loud our hair blew back.

Ryan is loving on him, Sam is over loving on him and I look at Hayes. He starts to cry and lowers his head to the table and is bawling. "What is the matter?" we asked. "Benny screamed at me". We explained that Ben had just hurt himself and was not screaming at anyone.

Boy, one is crying about his finger, the other is crying about the scream and I am hugging Hayes while Ryan is hugging Ben and Sam is going back and forth between the two.

It was really somewhat comical. My poor babies! It is always at least interesting around here.
