The big bad wolf........

Ok, first things first, Lucas is doing well, according to the Dr's he has become lazy and is refusing all bottles, because of this I'm gravity feeding him during the day and pump feeding him at night. I'm learning that this is harder than I figured it would be, I thought I could put the food in the pump during the day say at a morning feeding hit a button and poff it would feed him, nope, not the case at all, so I've learned to plan my day around feeding because I'm really not to keen on the idea of doing a gravity feed in public and entertaining a 3 yr old at the same time. Also, I've learned that eventhough I can feed him in less then 5mins, I shouldn't, it comes out alot quicker. The Dr's have me doing this for atleast a week, I figure there usually right atleast 75% of the time, so I might as well give it a try. The VNA came by today and Lucas has gained another 5ounces since there last visit. He is almost at 18lbs now.

Ok, now on to why I titled this entry the big bad wolf. Everyday when Dylan wakes up and a couple of times throughout the day he will ask "where's daddy?" I answer the same everyday, he's at work. Then Dylan will ask "why?" So we've started telling him that Daddy works so I can stay home with him and Lucas and so that we can still pay bills and buy stuff. So yesterday on our way home from the pharmacy he asked the infamous "where's Daddy?" I explained that daddy is at work, and instead of asking why, he asked what does daddy do at work. I explained to him that daddy delivers sheetrock on his big truck, this is when he asked the usual, WHY? So needing to come up with a 3yr old answer I explained that Daddy delivered sheetrock to people who are building houses, I also had to explain what sheetrock was (I told him its the walls of a house!). Then he asked if people need to build houses because the big bad wolf blows them down? I really didn't know how to answer this one, so I just said maybe??? After a few minutes Dylan tells me that he has an idea. He's decided that he is going to find the bad wolf and beat him up, that way people won't loose there houses, so guys won't need to build houses, then Daddy won't need to deliver sheetwock (this is how he says it) and he can stay home with us and fish and stuff. I then look in my rearview mirror and Dylan has his hands around his eyes (like Diego does when they need to look through binoculors) I asked him what he was doing and he tells me "I'm looking for the wolf's eyes with my nokulars, I think he's asllleeep!"

So after much thought, I've decided that in some ways I really like the mind of a 3yr old, I would love to know how they come up with these things. I'll write more later...
