Wii play, do you?

Wii_w_graeme_006x Another victim of the Wii. When the boys actually let Graeme get in a moment of gametime, he got sucked in just like them. With the shouts and whoops coming up the stairs from the basement, you wouldv’e thought there was a real game going on down there. Then before dinner tonight, we caught Graeme sneaking in a little Wii time on his own.

We took Graeme out to Nick’s for Italian tonight with my parents and the boys, which he really enjoyed. So even if we are on the boring side for him, at least we are feeding him well. Patrick started in with the tears tonight (only 4 more days until Graeme leaves) about being sad over Graeme’s departure. The hard part is that we don’t know when we will see him next this time as he starts his "big boy" job with Microsoft in London next month so he won’t be doing the crazy travelling like he did this year. I guess we will just have to travel to the UK to visit him next time. Yeah, right after we go to Australia to see Nate and Colleen!

Spent the day Monday at the beach with Sharon and Olivia which was great. Hot as hell, but great. Timmy’s newest thing is now jumping directly into the pool off the side (instead of jumping into my arms) and going all the way underwater. He loves it and did it a thousand times. He also went in the ocean a little bit which is a big deal cause he has been scared of the ocean for the last year or so. Then spent the day today at the pool with Graeme and the boys. Tommorrow night Graeme and I are going to see Phantom of the Opera on B’way. He said he wanted to catch a show while he was here and that’s what he picked. John is not going- his theory on Broadway is that he "can nap at home for free". So I’m back to being Mrs. Robinson apparently. Eh, it could be worse…Wii_w_graeme_015x
