Wheezy and Granola Bars



What will entertain your child? It is a common question that changes everyday and sometimes multiple times a day. Today was a rainy day, we did have some friends over this am, but this afternoon was lots of naps and trying to keep the kids entertained. Joe is redoing his boat and is almost done so Luke went out and helped him, in the process he found "Wheezy" a plastic minnow, that Luke casted his pole and "caught" with Joe's help. Well it didn't take long into this game for Luke to decide Wheezy was his pet goldfish and he was keeping him. So wheezy came inside in a cup of water and since then we have been playing with Wheezy all afternoon. Luke wants to take Wheezy to church to show his friends, Wheezy got a bath with Luke and Joe and Luke washed him multiple times. He is currently watching the Tv Show Max and Ruby before bed with Luke. Telling Luke, Wheezy has to stay in the water doesn't seem to sink in as he is out of the water more than he is in the water.
Graham on the other hand has been sitting very content for about the last 30 minutes pulling the granola bars out of the box and putting them in the pot next to him and then putting the lid on and then putting them back in the box. How can I stop this fun game for him? I know we might only have crumbs to eat soon ,but that is alright if he is entertained it works for me!!

Well 3 weeks to go until the new baby comes. Still debating boys names, but everything else is ready for the big day. I am getting tired and feeling the baby being very low. I am finding bending over or getting down on the ground. Luke is excited and thinks his "Baby sister" is coming soon but doesn't want us to get rid of Graham. So we are happy he wants to keep Graham around, but not sure what we will say if it isn't a girl that comes out!
