I haven't posted a note about Garrett in a while so here is what our biggest little dude is into now - in 2 words - STAR WARS. After Jon took G to see the Clone Troopers and bought the Star Wars Lego game for the Wii - it is officially the new obsession. We are happy about this for many reasons. Of course, Jon & I were both Star Wars fans as kids (him more than me, so he is in heaven playing with G now.) We are tired of hearing about Transformers and Bionciles and would much rather sit down and play with Star Wars characters. When I told G that I saw Star Wars about 10 times when I was a kid, he couldn't believe it - especially when I pointed out that we had to go to the theater to see it each time. That leads us into the conversation about having no VCR, DVD, TIVO and having only 3 channels on 1 TV, etc.
Anyway, everyday after school, Garrett comes home and plays the Star Wars Lego Wii game. After his time is up, he gets his 'gear' and goes outside to act out the entire Star Wars movie. I have to try to get this on video.
This weekend, Jon and G have a date to watch The Empire Strikes Back. I see an opportunity to bride (yes, bribe) Garrett with some new little characters :)
