Remember when I was complaining about potentionally losing my oldest son, Mason, to the neighbors because they had a Wii and we didn't. Well, when I took Max to the doctors the other day, there was this old Colombian woman there who heard me speaking Spanish to Max and started talking to me....she was telling me about her boy who was like 16 now, and he still would rather have been home with his family rather than go out because when he was a boy, he had wanted video games too. So, she got them to keep her boy at home. She got me thinking that I needed to do the exact same thing. PLUS, I was tired of Mason asking to go over to the neighbor's EVERY WAKING MOMENT OF THE DAY. I called around earlier in the week looking for the Wii and was told by 8 shops that they didn't have any in stock and "we don't know when we will be getting more in". so, I was kinda bummed thinking that I was going to have to wait a long time. Well...well...well....
I went into the same Blockbuster that I had called earlier in the week TODAY, and they had 3 in stock. I asked if I could hold it till my hubby could get home and approve the purchase, cuz it's kinda expensive...but they couldn't... so I left around noon and hoped for the best. Well, I called Michael about 100 times and then made the executive decision around 5 pm to make the BIG TICKET purchase and hope for the best! I was worried for nothing cuz Michael could've cared less when he got home. Not only that, Uncle Julius and Aunt Kathy came over to help us break it in. I guess I know where we will be for the next couple of weekends!
Max isn't too interested. He's only 3 mind you, but I have an idea of how to get him interested. I saw a TMNT Wii game and I think that will totally get him going. By the way, TMNT is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles....his ABSOLUTE favorite thing in the whole world. FYI.
