I WANT MY BINKY!

Tragedy struck this morning. Andrew woke up without his binky (which is not unusual) but when I finally tracked in down, there was a big hole in the end of it. No longer good for sucking. Andrew was beside himself. There are other binkys in the house, somewhere, but of course, nowhere to be found this morning. We will probably find the blue or the orange one weeks from now stuck in some odd corner or drawer. Andrew cried for a good hour about his lost binky which was not helped by being hungry but refusing to eat. Vic got him to eat by offering some Goldfish crackers first and then he was willing to try the now very soggy cereal.

At some point he got the idea that stomp rockets would make everything better. Since the kids had received money for Easter from Boppa, a trip to the toy store didn't sound like a bad idea. So after Dylan's nap, off we went to the toy store to get stomp rockets for Andrew and Critter stuff for Gina. It was the easiest trip to the toy store we have made yet. Once their toys were purchased, they were both very willing to leave.

Andrew would have spent all afternoon outside playing with his new toy. One rocket got stuck high in the trees and another got stuck on the roof. I got some good pictures of both kids playing in the yard as well as Dylan with his new bunny bear, but of course my camera stopped working this evening to download the pictures. Maybe tomorrow...
