Mr Boo loves fishies, fishy was one of the first non food signs he really learned well. And be it Cabela's or the fish tanks at Petsmart or Walmart, he goes crazy for fishies.
What's funny is, as usual when we get to Cabela's and he starts his hand waving like crazy, someone always thinks he's just being really friendly. Tonight when I videoed him at Cabela's, there was a mother there with a little girl about the same age. The mother was saying to her little girl, "He's saying Hi, can you wave hi back?" to her little girl, until I explained what he was really doing. At which point she was even more impressed.
And of course this isn't the first time I've come home from work, to a little boy just dying to go bye-bye. He doesn't really care where to, just as long as he gets to go somewhere. Sometimes mommy comes along, sometimes she stays home, and sometimes like tonight she takes the opportunity to go to the library, which isn't really easy with Mr. Boo as one of his favorite games is to pull every book he can reach off the shelves. And Lil Boofer does not make it easy for Da to pick up after him.
Once Spring arrives, these stir crazy days will be less common as they will be able to go to the park, or just for walks, but currently, Boo and Da get tired of being at home all day every day.
Oh and I spoiled him, as usual. He now has a stuffed Rainbow trout to go with his Buffalo, two bears, and wolf; each known as Buffalo Boo, Boo Bear(or blue bear as it is blue), Car Bear(It stays out in the car seat), and Wulfy Boo. Fishie has yet to be named.
Okay I surrender. I've been trying for the last two days to get the video of him visiting the fishies uploaded. But it refuses to finish the process so I can publish this post. So here is the post sans video.

Fishie's name, obviously, is "Fishy". Mr. Boo is not fussy as to the spelling.
And I got to see the video! It was really cute, especially the part where Mr. Boo fell over and so Dirk helped him back up without turning off the camera so the picture went upside down.
Fishie's name is of course FishyBoo!
Benji is so cute - too pretty for a boy and his grin just gets you. I would imagine you guys are about exhausted right now - two big family parties in two days plus the emotional wear and tear coming up. You are all in our prayers.
Thanks again for the service flag - I was so impressed that you thought to get one for every member of the family!!
