One of Kyle's newest toys is this picnic basket filled with a sandwich, ice cream cone, watermelon slice and a grape juice bottle. And like most soft baby toys, they are easy to grasp and all of the pieces either crinkle, jingle, or squeak.
Tyler was instantly inspired by the new toy. He thought it would be cool if we had an indoor picnic. He thought the baby could play with his basket while the rest of us ate a lunch of PB&J sandwiches and cheetos.
Sounded like a good enough plan, but it had to wait until this weekend so Rick could be home to join in on the fun. So in the meantime, Tyler found other ways to pass the time while playing with the picnic basket.....like stuffing the grape juice bottle into Kyle's ball popper to - I don't know, see if it would fit.
So we spent a good chunk of time this morning a) finding the grape juice bottle and then b) trying to get it out of the ball popper. Rick and I both tried to reach it, but ended up just pushing it farther down the chute. That's when Tyler and his obnoxiously skinny arms reached right on in and grabbed the bottle out like it was no big deal.
Then it was on with the picnic.
A variety of sandwiches, fruit kabobs, and cheetos.
It was nice having lunch together as a family. Maybe next time we can have a picnic at the park...once the weather warms up and the baby get a little bigger.
