When we went to Vancouver, WA a little while ago to look at apartments, we found a few possibilities but nothing perfect. So I've been needing to start looking again, this time in the Oregon suburbs of Portland. At 1:00 today I dropped David off at school, came home & put Katy down for a nap, let Ryan start playing on the Wii, and started searching. I made up a nice chart and tried 3 different apartment searchers. And totally lost track of time. David came home from school a little before 4, and Katy woke up a little while after. I finally decided to take a break to make dinner a couple minutes ago, shortly after 5. And I realized that Ryan had never stopped playing on the Wii! I just let him play for about FOUR HOURS! Oops!
What kind of mother does that, especially without even realizing it? Well, I guess that might be better than constantly telling him to leave me alone, like I'd probably be doing if he weren't playing on the Wii. Right?
I guess I'll wait until after bedtime to get back to my search!

That is really funny! it is so easy to loose track of time.
lucky ryan! and he looks so much like david in that picture. I never thought they looked much alike, but definitely in that picture!
I think sometimes you have to let kids do that to get things done!!! I do that with my residents and the Wii also!
