LUKE THE BOY: Ain't We Got Fun?

Dress up continues to be a grand pastime at Casa de Casey - here SUPERGIRRRRRL battles the...uh...Old Prospector?

Luke didn't have any school on Veteran's Day, so rather than spend another day in "day camp," he and Mama decided a day in the city might be fun. Here they are waiting for the train.

A pro at straphanging! Or at least on pole-holding.

We met up with Aunt Slater!

Check out that toddler behind us, trapped in her 5-point harness, knowing instinctively that she is missing out on all the Aunt Slater Fun.

We visited Toys R Us in Times Square to do some Christmas List Research.
Luke took this picture "to show Harper."

Aunt Slater treated Luke to a Lego Chima set - he was quite excited once we got it all together!

YESSSS!

Aunt Slater also had him pick out some Legos for Harper - which he promptly put together before she got home from school. She's doing karate!

Harper attended her first "friend birthday party" a few weekends ago.

The parachute...

...it still delights the preK set.

Last weekend, with soccer over and no obligations, we declared it a KIDS' CHOICE DAY.
Naturally, they picked LEGOLAND.
Luke built a race car.

And raced very seriously.

We finally made time to take a "Master Builder" class.

Guess what this will be?

Mama's partner, Harper, did a surprisingly good job following along.

Halfway there!

Paul and Luke did a great job, too!

Turkey complete!

GOBBLE GOBBLE!

Up a steep and very narrow stairway!

To family yoga class!

(no one in yoga ever gets this reference)

Guess who was teacher's pet?

Hint: Not Mama. Not Luke.

Pirate. Packers fan. Baby doll mama.

It's hard being almost-3.

Mama has been on a mad organizational tear - Harper's old changing table/dresser was converted in an arts and crafts supply station. Behold! The order! And random set of Lego wheels...dammit.
