Christmas 2009--Part 2

After Christmas when things finally settled down a bit we gave James this playhouse I made for the boys. It was a big hit! Which is a good thing because it was a lot of work, but fun to make.
James finally became interested enough in his Jeep to sit in it...for a few minutes.
On Monday night we had FHE using the FHE in a Bag that Doug's sister gave to us. It was a lot of fun, but James had a hard time taking turns while playing hot potato.
James like pretending the boys hockey sticks were skis. He loves anything having to do with sports.

James also loved playing Wii. And anyone who played "with" him had to be "Green Tims" AKA Lugui.
On New Years Eve we went to Doug's Aunt and Uncle's the Sellers for a Cootie Party. It was a Cowboy themed party with tons of fun games. Several rounds of "Speed Cootie", Cowboy toss, this was James' favorite. He kept trying to take the "cow pies" away from whoever had them at the time.


We also played horse shoes, and did some steer roping. I have to say we weren't too bad considering it was our first time. We each got one horn, twice.


On Saturday we headed home. James loved using these new movie screens Grandma and Grandpa gave us. I have to say it was really nice not having to keep pushing play over and over again.

This is what our playroom looked like when we got home. I can not believe how many toys these two boys have.
After putting a bunch of toys away and organizing a little (ok a lot!) Our house is back to normal, plus a few new toys!
James has what Doug considers "Toy Overload" he won't play with anything for more than a few minutes and is constantly asking me to get new toys out. I hope things go back to normal soon. That kid can make a huge mess in such a short time!
