Lego Make-And-Take

We took the boys back to the Lego store because of the FREE make-and-take project of the month. We found out about it the last time we were at the store and the boys REALLY wanted to come do the project. For September, the project was a book and pencil.







Afterwards, we enjoyed some cinnamon rolls from Cinnabon. G just couldn't resist! Anyhow ... the boys are already itching to go in October. We'll have to see!

Our Outing to the Mall

This morning, we took the boys down to a mall in Sacramento to the Lego store. They were in Lego heaven! B & J each picked out something and used their own money to pay for it. T got something small, too. The ONE thing B wanted, in particular, wasn't in stock. He was a little bummed. They enjoyed looking around at all of the built models, too.






Right after the Lego store, we surprised the boys with cinnamon rolls. They were SO good! We each had a 1/2 because they were so big. Such a yummy treat!





We had a great outing at the mall with the boys. We stopped in a few shops. We were REALLY tempted at the Apple store. G has been wanting an iPod touch! Anyway, it was a nice morning together and fun to take the boys to the Lego store --- somewhere they've been wanting to go for a long time.

T & His Legos

T insisted on me taking his picture with a few of his Lego creations a couple of days ago. It drives his big brother crazy seeing T digging through the Legos, and taking some popular pieces. He loves to look through many of the Lego magazines, and points to almost every picture claiming that he's going to get each thing for his upcoming birthday. Boy, is he going to be surprised when he only gets 1 or 2, not all 50! Today, T is not feeling well. One of the ways I know he's not feeling well is that he's not playing with his Legos. He usually carries them all over the place with him and wants me to play, too. He's really bummed about missing speech class today, but there's no way he's going!

More Legos

B diggin' through some Legos for the right pieces

The 'payoff" -- The Castle

B spent some time today rebuilding his Lego castle. I helped him look for the directions on-line (love that!!). He had to dig and dig through his bins of Legos to find the right piece here and there, but he was a happy camper when he was done. He sure puts these things together FAST! He just has to keep them out of T's reach. That's a whole 'nother challenge.



N is still sick today. We thought he was on the up-swing of things, but he has another temperature. We're all pretty frustrated about it. N hasn't been THIS sick for so long. Poor guy. He's been a real trooper about it.
