Rainy Day Fun

So, we are on like our 3rd or 4th straight day of rain here.  It's becoming difficult to get out of the house to do anything leaving us somewhat bored at the house.  So, today I decided to try to remedy that with some new activities.  I made some Peanut Butter Playdough...which Gabriel smacked a few times and promptly began eating and sharing with Grace:

And after playdough Gabriel was continually attracted to Grace's water bowl despite my many attempts to attract his attention elsewhere.  So, I threw some towels down and got out the makeshift water table for him...inside:

Then we had our first every movie afternoon.  We put in Disney's Tarzan so he could see some of the animals he's grown fond of recently:  Gorillas, elephants, and giraffes (sadly giraffes are not in this movie, but the other two are so I'll settle for that).  That lasted about 30 minutes until he wanted to look at some books and then a nap.  So far this rain is supposed to last until at least Wednesday.  Brian is having unit problems so he was at work until 10:30 last night, and went in today on his Friday off.  Since he's not home I'm thinking he may have to go in tomorrow as well.  It's going to be another VERY long week here.
