Andy and the girls headed off to Target with a very specific shopping list in mind. The girls love the game Little Big Planet for the Playstation 3, and there is now a second version. It is a super kidsafe game and a lot of fun too. It is Daddy/Daughter bonding time. The other item of interest: a Tonka dumptruck for Matthew. The child loves, loves, loves anything with wheels. Well, he will even take a block and act like it is a car, so maybe it doesn't need wheels all that much. He is napping right now, but I can't wait for him to see his big truck. It is funny how he has gone from a little baby to all boy in such a short time. It makes me believe that kids' attractions to certain toys is just natural, not learned. If Matthew was just playing what the girls taught him, he would spend hours playing with Barbie dolls. The girls do try to make him their student when they play school, but he isn't interested in cooperating with that game. He would rather rip the pages out of the book than read it. I will have to capture him on the camera when he wakes up. He recently got a haircut at KAOS and it is very cute.
I have been reading a lot lately. I can't say I have read any life changing literature, but fun stuff none the less. The Kindle is addictive for me; actually it might be a little bit TOO easy for me to just click "Buy Instantly" on Amazon! My newest purchase is the new Jennifer Weiner novel and I am very much looking forward to it.
We are going over to Uncle Brian G's house for swimming tomorrow. The only way to be outside right now is to be in a pool, especially a nice shaded one like Brian's pool.
