Kendall’s Chair Dancing
She’s a maniac, maaaaniac on the flo-oor! And on her chair, and in the hallway, pretty much everywhere. Kendall is a dancing, bouncing ball of energy! She and Brian were hamming it up this morning, both wearing her headbands (Kendall was both indignant and amused by Brian wearing one of her things!) Kendall still loves her lion, but orange “Kitty Cat” is also a popular friend these days. We are potty training now, and Kendall is pretty excited about her pull-ups!...

We finally received our long-awaited pick-a-brick order from Lego.com–I’d had a plan for a Valentine surprise, but underestimated the shipping time for a custom order! But, even though it was late, Kendall and I had fun making a Lego rose and cute message to surprise the boys with after swimming lessons! I had also purchased some lightsaber elements, and Kendall thought those were just awesome! She made a quadruple-decker lightsaber and was quite proud of herself! We also...

Brandon definitely earned...

We added some smooth river rocks to the sandbox, and Kendall had a good time cooking with those.. She was pretending all the pinkish rocks were strawberries. I asked her if the white ones were coconut, and she very seriously told me “nooooo!” Later, Kendall wanted to get into the soccer game, and she had fun,...

It was another super busy Satuday! This morning Brian had Lego Club, with a Lego Movie theme–awesome! He made some funny minifigures while he and Brandon were there, too. 🙂 Next, the boys were off to Lowe’s Build and Grow, where he made a cool claw game. The claw doesn’t actually grab, like in the real ones, but it does work like a hook to pick up things! I stayed home with Kendall, who entertained me while I got ready for the day (who knew a basket of rocks could be so...
