Blocks Rock!

Rob's dad has been cleaning house and off and on we get a shipment of Rob's old stuff that he thinks we might like. I have to say this last package was probably the biggest hit - Rob's old blocks. Elena pounced on them as soon as she saw them. Kathryn came out of her room to play blocks with the family - do you know what that means with a teenager?
One of Kathryn's many towers.
Unfortunately, Laney is already picking up some bad habits - here she is bonking me in the head with a block
And knocking over Kathryn's towers.
Even Rory got involved - see how the ham bone wormed her way into the photos.

It's always so amazing to me how the simplest toys are the biggest hits! I guess that's why they are such a classic. Wyatt is getting in to stacking things too. He always been in to demolition, so no surprises there :) Glad you got to spend some family time!

That's cool that Dick found some of Rob's old toys. Glad you all got some bonding over blocks time in.

Lindsay got some wooden blocks for Christmas and she LOVES to stack and knock them over. We took them on our trip with us since they're such a big hit!

Very cute pics. Love the one of her knockin' ya in the head...priceless.
