The Playhouse Arrives!

Trenton's playhouse came and Landon and I set it up right away. Poor Trenton was confined to his crib while we built it so he wouldn't grab any of the small pieces. He sat there watching us, wondering what was going on and why he was trapped! Then we pushed the completed house against the wall, closed the door, and let him out to explore. He immediately found the doorbell and the phone, which both make sounds, and pushed buttons to his heart's content. He also enjoys opening the door, walking in, and then closing it behind him. It is so fun to watch him play. Sometimes we'll be in the living room and he'll crawl back to his room by himself and then we hear the doorbell repeatedly! :-) The best part is, it will only get better from here. He'll grow and so will his imagination and the house will become all sorts of settings for make-believe. We already bought a fake hamburger and french fries and a set of Keebler cookies for him to "eat" at his table. Tonight he even brought the layer of pickles from the burger into the bath, so he must like them!! He is such a joy to watch and we are so grateful for such a fun present.

Boys Will Be Boys

Well, Trenton has it all figured out as a guy: grab the remote and claim the lazy boy. I wonder who he learned that from!! :-)

Playtime with Dad

There's nothing like wrestling with dad after he gets home from work!! Trenton always breaks into a big grin when Landon gets home. Just the other day, Trenton heard the garage and pointed; he knew what that sound meant: Dad's Home!!
