Arabella has been starting to get into Lego's. Over Christmas break Grampie bought her a airplane Lego type kit when we went to Carolina's Aviation Museum. We just finished putting it together last weekend. I find myself getting frustrated when we do projects like this...she just wants to jump in and then gets frustrated when she can't put it together or it isn't turning out correctly. I feel like I end up doing the project for her and that really isn't the point. She doesn't have many Lego's yet, but has started asking for them...hopefully we can stall her a bit longer on them. For one, Max puts everything in his mouth. Arabella isn't the greatest at picking up small pieces of her toys - I found him clutching 2 very sparkly Barbie stilettos yesterday. And I want her to enjoy doing the Lego's...not get annoyed and frustrated. Maybe over the Summer she will be more patient for them. Anyway, she finished the plane and was pretty proud of it.
Last Saturday, she and Jay also went to Lowes for another Build & Grow project. She built a "claw game" and has been playing with it off and on since. It is actually a cute project. Way to go Arabella! Great job and you earned another patch for your apron...which is starting to fill up!
