Going Rechargeable

Sometime in 2008, I realized how silly it was to continuously buy batteries that would die after their initial use.  With a preschooler and a ton of toys lying around that require batteries, that just didn’t make much sense.  We also have video games and cameras that require batteries.  The obvious decision was to go [...]

Nintendo DS: Neopets Puzzle Adventure

Honestly, I have not taken this game out of my Nintendo DS Lite for months.  These puzzle games were a savior on the restless nights during my first trimester.  I’m a big fan of puzzle games in my old age.  Neopets Puzzle Adventure by Capcom is fun and I recommend it. I’m not so much [...]

Wii is way cool.

Nintendo’s Wii made its debut in our home earlier this summer and I must say, it’s just so cool. We love it.
