Like Father, Like Son

Weeks ago, Lego-mania took over our house and since then the boys (Bryson and Baylor) have enjoyed a few sessions of Lego building time.  The second session took place upstairs, with Mollie and me present, so I snapped a few pictures of the momentous event.

Mollie, for her part, wanted so badly to join in the fun.  Unfortunately, at one-and-a-half years old, she is just too young yet.  Instead, she got to go crazy with some washable markers and stickers.  While photographing, I got a lot of this ...



... which can be interpreted as, "I have green on my hand, Mom!  Please wash it off!"

The boys barely noticed we girls were there.


Yes, that is a pretty intense Lego set you see there.  It is actually one of Bryson's from when he was a Lego-loving kid!

Mollie really went to town with the stickers and markers, then distracted herself a bit with a coffee filter she found laying around.


Baylor really started getting the hang of counting out the spaces and figuring out where each piece should go.  I'm not sure Bryson could have been more proud or excited.


Without a doubt, these images are likely to be repeated time and time again in the future as Baylor's love of Legos grows and develops.  He even got two of his own Lego sets for Christmas, courtesy of Aunt Christine!  Now we just need to get Mollie to learn to not break them apart the minute she sees them.  *sigh*

All in good time, I suppose.
