12 Minutes of Game

Haylie is our “anything electronic fan.” She loves video games, computer games, listening to music on her MP3 player, movies, movies, movies…

Recently, we had to put a limit on her “play time.” It was looking like it was going to be getting out of hand, REALLY soon. So Joe and I agreed that she should have a time limit every day… At the same time, he said 10 minutes and I said 15. So we agreed that she could have 12 minutes of computer game time. Luckily, she’s young enough that 12 minutes seems like a lot.

As you can see, the concentration is intense! Notice her form… the way she is arching her back, I’m sure, helps her move faster. And the whitish color of her right index finger tells me that she is SERIOUS about Sonic the Hedgehog.

And here. She wanted me to capture the “blueness” of her candy stained mouth, but couldn’t bring herself from looking away from the computer. Now that takes talent. ;)

Love my Hays.

Feeling a little blue…

Most Fridays Haylie brings home some sort of candy that her bus driver gives her. Today it was one of those long Laffy Taffy sticks and she was gracious ;) enough to share with Connor. I don’t know how they did it, but it got all over.

If you couldn’t tell from the way he is trying to hide the fact that he’s sticking his tongue out at me, he was mad at me here because I chased him all around the living room trying to get a picture of his blue lips.

For the sake of being able to say I keep up with my blog…

After a gentle nudge from my amazing SIL, Rachel, I decided I needed to update this blog. However, until I can come up with a super cool new post, here are a couple of pictures of the Magster to hold you over. ;)
