If you are savvy enough to read blogs, I will assume you are familiar with the Nintendo Wii, so I'll provide no description. Matt got ours for his birthday back before the huge excitement started. It is really one of the best purchases we have ever made. Seriously, we play Wii almost every day. Matt and the boys will play while I make dinner. Then we'll all play after dinner until bedtime if we have no other evening activities scheduled.

I did not grow up as a video game player, so I was not enthused about the Wii -- until I played it. It really is fun and Patriot and I will occasionally play even when Matt isn't home. I am so impressed that anyone, regardless of age or ability, can play and enjoy the Wii. I've seen three generations play Wii against each other, and actually all have fun. I've seen my uncle, who isn't normally a game player, play Wii for hours and enjoy it. But the video below is most impressive to me. This is my 14-month old son playing Wii boxing. Enjoy!
