Lego Mania!

I love legos. Jaden loves legos. KynnLee loves to wreck lego creations. I want a big lego set for Christmas, the ones that have hundreds and hundreds of pieces and take hours to put together. But since it is impossible to keep something like that from being scattered through the house (yes, I said impossible!), it will have to wait a few years. In the meantime, we have fun with the lego duplo blocks.

Jaden is really good at building big castles, Kupa's castle usually. So we got out KynnLee's Cinderella blocks along with all of Jaden's blocks and just went to town one day while she was sleeping. Here's what we ended up with...

(notice the Mario on top, and Cinderella was the princess, and the prince was Luigi)



Among other exciting things this summer, KynnLee got a BIG big-girl bed! When I say big, I mean BIG. I'm not talkin' about no toddler bed. We have a queen bed in the basement that doesn't get used (hint, hint, people!), so we put it in KynnLee's room. Here's how she started out spending her naps...
Yeah, pretty much anywhere but the bed! And since the bed takes up most of her bedroom, she doesn't have many other options! The first time she napped, I peeked in to check on her and couldn't find her. She was curled up on the floor at the foot of the bed next to her bookshelf. Nowa days, the little stinker completely destroys her bedroom, empties her toys, pulls out clothes and shoes before she falls asleep, usually on the bed now.
Is it too late to get the crib back out???

That's really funny--KynnLee... ;)

Have you ever tried the Trio system (they're like blocks...kind of) You can build so many really cool things, and yet they're not super tiny pieces. We got some this summer and the kids went CRAZY over them!
