Watching LT

Kari and Brian were kind enough to watch Z for us Friday evening so we could join our friend Mo for dinner. So, to return the favor, we watched LT so they could go on a Saturday night date.

First order of business was to decide who was going to ride in the hippo...obviously the little guy pushes bigger guy. Makes perfect sense to me. Landon took his turn being pushed by Zack.
Then that game be came boring, so they moved on. Zack seemed happy just to have his buddy over.

Next Landon spotted all the nice glass things on the DVD case and proceeded to use the universal, baby talk, "ugh, ugh, ugh!!"

Which we guess means. "I want that!"
The "that" in this case was, a thermometer that looks like a bunch of cool "bubbles", according to LT. It was all I could do to keep them from smashing into each others head. After just a few minutes of exploration, it went back up on the shelf.


Next Zack showed Landon the glass whales we occasionally have to give kisses.

Of course, Zack expected LT to give them a kiss too. I'm sure they aren't painted with kid safe, lead free paint, Sorry Kari!

The whales must have inspired Zack, because he pick out his favorite book on marine life to show Landon, since Landon HAD the same book.

Unfortunately right after this picture we lost an octopus arm to Landon, much the same way his own book did.

I decided it was time for some dinner so the boys thought a race up the stairs would be fun...I think Zack only won because Landon got distracted half way up by Shadow hanging out at top of stairs.

Dinner went mostly well, if you judge by the size of the mess Albert helped me clean up. Kari suggested that LT was into apples and to try it, plus maybe some apple sauce.

Landon wasn't in the mood for either,




but he ate all of his sweet potato fries, plus Z's.

It was so much fun trading date night, that maybe we should do it again!?
