Noah thinks his brother is ridiculous. He pats him on the head as if to say "Silly boy"
We attempted self-portraits the other morning.
We still stink at them.
And Noah's newest hobby is sucking his fingers and being a drooly mess.
Exciting stuff, no??!!!
Noah also waited quite patiently.
Matthew waited...
...and waited...
Then after what seemed like an eternity (but in reality was only about 5 minutes), it was game time!
Matthew is really into pirates lately and he LOVED this water table.
He kept saying "We're going to Pirate Island" - which I think is from Jake and The Neverland Pirates.
He had a blast with all the little toys the table came with.
Noah was excited to see Matthew having so much fun. He looked like he wanted to join in!
We also set up this little play sink for Matthew as well. He kept asking to wash his hands.
And to complete the trilogy of water tables, Matt rigged up this water-park-slide-rapids-thingie that we picked up at Once Upon A Child a few weeks ago.
Noah watched intently as Matthew bounced around.
From water toy...
...to water toy...
...to water toy.
Then he got bored, sat back and chewed on his hands until we went back inside.
And that about sums up our weekend!
We're missing a few pieces (from what I can tell on the collectible sites) but we have just enough to make Ish happy.
At that same sale, we paid $2 for a pack of trucks (which included a Mater) and $2 for a bag of magnetic Dora cars. Not vintage by any means, but Ish loves anything with wheels.
The real vintage score of the weekend is this Fisher Price Children's Hospital (circa 1976). It's listed online for $40 and up depending on the condition. We paid $2.50.
It's in great condition considering it's from 76 and has been played with.
We're missing a few pieces, but what we have is pretty neat.
And it looks like we have all the original people that came with the set.
Nothing for mommy or daddy on this outing, but I'm really enjoying watching Matthew play with these "old" toys like they're brand new!
It's small, it's self-propelled (and dare I say, a little "old school") and it's Ish's new favorite.
He has spent hours today already releasing the trains and rooting for Thomas to win.
Best $5 we ever spent.
Our second score was this wooden fire house.
It opens up to become a "doll house" of sorts (the masculine kind!). Only $3. Quite a steal.
We picked up this Thomas matching game for $2. It's brand new. Matthew loves matching games lately.
We also picked up this huge exercise ball. Matthew doesn't know it's an exercise ball - he just knows it's lightweight and easy to pick up and throw. For 75 cents, we couldn't say no. He'll have fun with this once it's cool enough to play outside again.
Matt scored a deal today too - a tall wooden ladder for only $10. Apparently those things go for about $100 at Home Depot - so he couldn't pass it up.
