Ready to Roll

Amanda spent the day packing and I spent the evening prepping the van.  The kids are very intrigued by my setup of the DVD player.  I have it hanging on the driver's seat so Noah can see it hands-free.  This way he can play a plug and play video game without a problem.  Or so my theory goes, anyway.  I've thought about bringing the Atari, but I don't think that he can handle it yet.  It will be a gametime decision, but I am leaning away from it.

What's funny is that he is ready to go right now.  He just wants to play video games.  I figure that between music we all listen to, DVDs, games on the iPod Touch, the Leapster, and various flavors of Pac-Man, he should be good.  Meanwhile, Lily has about 8 hours of video she can watch on our respective iPod Touches.  The only problem with that plan is that she can watch the whole Star Wars trilogy in about 3 hours because she skips "the scary parts."  If you even mention Han Solo getting frozen she tenses up.
