Christmas Hits and Flops

I think the item that has received the most time is probably her Nintendogs game for her DSi. She asked for it, [...]

Friday, January 6th, 2012

I love my new Kindle Touch. So do the girls. Unfortunately for them, it’s mine and they can’t have it – LOL. I’ve let both of them read a few short stories on it, but the truth is that they both got plenty of new books for Christmas and they don’t need to read on [...]

Christmas Hits

Wednesday, December 29th, 2010
