The Big Wheel

Conner wants to play the Price is Right dvd everyday but he doesn't get to so he makes up the games and plays with us. Yesterday as soon as Neil got home from work, Conner ran up to him, daddy, daddy let's make a big wheel. So after dinner they set to work. Conner was the brain power behind the Plinko board so Neil asked him Conner what should we make it out of? Conner decided on cardboard. So while I watched American Idol (Go Danny!) Neil and Conner and Sam hot glued this contraption together. Too bad while we were all busy no one was paying attention to Mikey who somehow got a bottle of super glue and bit a hole in it. He all of a sudden started whining. He had it all in his mouth, stuck to his teeth and fingers. Luckily his fingers weren't stuck together. Had to call Poison Control who said he would be fine just give him some liquids and a long bubble bath to loosen the glue from his fingers. Conner is in heaven with his big wheel and has been playing it all day.
Other than his parents, his Aunt Beka is probably #1 on his list of favorites at the moment. She came and spent the night with us a couple weekends ago and on Saturday morning she sat and played Price is Right with Conner for at least 2 hours while he made up the games and was commentator. It's really cute for awhile but after awhile it gets old but she was such a good sport. He has asked a couple time again when is Aunt Beka coming again. Little does he know she'll be watching them for a couple days while I'm in Georgia in March. Get ready Beka, he's got lots of games ready for you!
Beka also introduced the Killer Bunnies board game. It was kind of confusing at first and I was a little nervous it wasn't going to be fun but we ended up having a ball talking smack to one another. It did take 3 1/2 hours to play, which could have went even longer if I wanted to kill off everyone's bunnies but it was already 11:30pm so we ended it. If you like the Killer Bunnies card game you'll love this.
