New Gamers in the House

Sara and I have been talking about getting a video game system of some sort for a while and we were surprised to get a Playstation II from Sara's mom for Christmas. The only games we really wanted were Dance Dance Revolution and Guitar Hero. They're both pretty fun, and DDR actually gives us a little cardio workout which certainly couldn't hurt :). We usually don't get a chance to play until the kids go to bed. Micah usually stays up a little later than the other two, so I just strap him on and strap on the guitar over him. He usually falls asleep after a few songs.


Aubri's been VERY intrigued with the game as well. She begs to play it quite frequently. What's funny is that she refuses to let anyone help her even though she misses every note. Then, on the screen, the guitarist gets booed by the crowd and he falls to his knees and looks like he's crying. Aubri gets so concerned for the sad guitarist on the screen that she almost breaks into tears herself saying, "Daddy, why is he sad?" It apparently impacts her because she'll ask me about the sad guitarist at random times throughout the day. She's very sensitive:)

It's fun watching her attempt to play the guitar though. She's a natural born rocker!
