The Assassin

Luke brought a baby offer to his high chair, put her in, and asked me for pizza. I said I didn't have any pizza. He ran to the counter and pointed up, asking for an apple. I asked if it was for him or the baby, and he said it was for the baby.

I handed him an apple, he took a bit me, then climbed up the chair and gave the baby a bite. He must have done it 10-15 times.

Then he grabbed a sword.

First he pointed the sword at the baby and "shot" her by making a pew-pew noise. Apparently that wasn't enough. So he attempted to sever her head with about 20 lashings.

Never know where his mind is gonna go ...

Photographer

Luke took this picture of Brooke after gymnastics today.

Children's Museum Field Trip

Ryan's class had the opportunity to visit the Children's Museum today. Ryan had lots of fun with the water - and he assures me he didnt get wet because he had long sleeves and a hoodie ;)

He got to bowl

He monkeyed around

And he got to dig for dinosaur bones, which was clearly his favorite activity.

Unfortunately, when he was told it was time to stop digging ... and then he was told to take a few group photos ... he was less than thrilled.

"Go-Ga"

Luke grabbed a pillow, put it on the ground and placed his head on it. I asked him what he was doing. He replied "go-ga".

Of course he's doing yoga. What was I thinking?

Imagination Party

Today Ryan's class is having an imagination themed party (oddly, because his teacher opted not to celebrate Christmas or Valentines with the class ... But that's a whole other story). Kids were told to come as dragons, princes, Kings, queens & princesses.

Good thing we threw this together at the last minute ... Because almost every boy had an amazing (store bought) knight costume on! Ryan seemed happy with what he had, so I think we are in the clear ;)

Belly Slide

One piece pjs make sliding down the stairs a piece of cake.

21 months

JUST fits under the kitchen counter. Spent his day terrorizing the nanny & throwing Thomas trains through the railing to nail Dad in the head.

His Whip & Nae Nae improving each day.

Big shoes to fill

Luke likes to wear everyone's shoes! Any shoe left out ends up on his foot at some point or another ;)

Star Wars

Tonight Brooke asked me
"What should I draw? It can be anything, even if it's impossible"

I told her to draw Darth Vader.

She said it was too hard.

I reminded her she said "even if it's impossible", and she began to draw.

Eventually she added a bunch of characters, all from memory. Only one she looked up was Luke Skywalker, because she wasn't sure what he wears :)

From left to right:
Chewbacca, BB-8, Darth Vader, C3PO, Luke Skywalker, R2D2, Princess Leia, Yoda & a Storm Trooper.

Water Success

Luke has been trying ... And today was successful. He put water into his cup!

Now we have to keep the water locked. Forever.
