Ok so this morning I am sitting at the computer checking email and blogs and other REALLY important stuff. Grant is in the living room get his morning fix (Backyardigans) Now I am rolling my eyes that even just typed that! Anyway lately when he wakes up he plays this game where I ask him (several times) what he wants for breakfast and he tells me (several times) that he is not hungry. As soon as I get doing something or dare I even sit down for two minutes, then he decides he is starving and he needs something to eat RIGHT AWAY!!! So we have already played the not hungry part of the game today and as I am sitting at the computer. I am just waiting for him to come to me with his breakfast order. All the sudden he comes just running in screaming at me "Mom Mom I have something very exciting to tell you!!!" Seriously his eyes were huge and you could just see the excitement in his face! So talking about a hundred miles a minute he says " I just saw a commercial on the TV and guess what it was?" He is not even letting me answer him or get even a word in " It ... was.... Starwars toys!!! Can you believe it Mom? I want them! I want the whole set! Where do you think we could get them?" Still he is talking so fast I dont have time to even answer him. SO MUCH EXCITEMENT! " Seriously mom! Do you think we could go to Costco or maybe Walmart. Oh how about Albertsons? I want all of them! Will you buy them for me?" At this point I am just cracking up at him. So all the sudden he stops and looks at me with this look that could kill and he says " Mom this is not funny. This is a very serious matter. I NEED those toys. And I cant figure out where we can get them. Do you think you could help me out?" It was like it was a life or death matter. I didnt even know that Grant was into Starwars? He has never really shown any interest before now but aparently he needs those toys (which he will not get, by the way)(I know I am such a mean mom, but he has too many toys as it is) I just thought it was so funny! Kids are crazy!

When John reads this, he will probably want to adopt Grant.
If he really wants to play with Star Wars toys, you can bring him over here, Alex has a ton of them. (So does John, but he doesn't allow anyone to play with them)
It's funny because Grant has never expressed any interest in Star Wars before but all of the sudden he NEEDS them!?!
Maybe the Dillier StarWars influence has rubbed off on Grant already with only those couple playdates or so.
Lily loves the backyardigans also.
If there is a show that doesn't have music there better be puppies involved or she will not watch it.
