Sibling Rivalry

Hailey had never been to IKEA before, and since Canton boasts the only IKEA in Michigan - we had to go!

Don't they look great with kids?! ;-)


Those paper rulers turned out to be a great leash!

After the kiddos would go to bed each night we would either play games or watch Doctor Who.  My only goal this week was to convert Hailey to DW.  After strategically avoiding season 1 and hand picking favorite episodes from seasons 2 & 3 she's now a Whovian!!!

Other nights we played Clue, Boggle, Bezzerwizzer, and even went to Guardians of the Galaxy (thanks Laura!)

I'm not a very good loser... or winner!

First of all, it's LOSER, no extra O. Big pet peeve. As long as you don't say nucular for nuclear, we can still be friends. Also, please get me addicted to Dr. Who. I've tried but can't get past the first few episodes. When should I start watching. Will it make sense if I skip the first season?

Fixed it. I've been blogging lately while watching Numb3rs. Apparently this is proving to be too much multitasking for my tired brain.

As for DW... I think you'll be confused if you just start in season 2... unless you have someone who can pause it and explain things. Season 1 gets better as it goes along, so if you really want to get into it you'll probably just need to endure the first episodes. Maybe try blogging while you watch it! ;-) There are a lot of recurring characters and plot lines from the first season. But at the end of the day it's still sci-fi. So if you're not into any of that then you probably won't like it, even when it gets "good". And even though I really enjoy the show there are some episodes that are even a little much for me (and that's saying something!)
