Sometimes it's not what you watch, but where you watch it! This was the case today. While I was at my 4-hour Pilates Instructor training (yes, I am training to be a Pilates Instructor), Devon was trying to entertain the kids and get caught up on the onesie and vinyl letter orders at the same time. There is no better distraction than a new way to watch a DVD. Inspired by Snoopy, Devon set up pillows and blankets on top of the kids house. There Taylor, Luke, and, especially, Blake sat still and watched a show for at least 30 minutes (or, so I'm told). I guess I need to leave the kids, alone, with Devon more often. Whenever I come home they always have some kind of creative, mass structure in the living that I have to clean up, but at least they had fun!

That is really creative. Hooray for TV sometimes. I'll have to hear how your Pilates training is going. Did you have to bring ballet slippers?
Devon is so creative! Can he come over to distract Parker for me so I can get stuff done????
WOW!!!!!! What a cute creative show. Devon is really a genious at entertaining the kids. That is a rare thing. Love ya
I think Devon should come babysit my kids, too!
Finally, I got a chance to look at your blog. It is so fun! I can't believe you are training to be a pilates instructor. How fun! You are a superhero!
Hey, that's pretty creative! I think you should have a family movie night and watch from there. Blake looks like he's really enjoying it! He's just one of the kids now isn't he?!
OK only a dad would think of that! How fun! And when are you moving to UTAH to be my pilates trainer? I want to start when I lose 20 pounds...I hope by then I can bend a little easier...dang kids!
PS I got your email...I am trying to remember what I did! I almost have it figured out and I will email you all the details!
weren't you just talking the other day about how you didn't want luke climbing on things or how he was climning on things way too much? hmm...
