All in a row

Collin went through this phase where he wanted to make lines out of everything. I wish I would have taken a picture of it, but one day he had almost all of his small toys lined up across the living room. It was probably 10 feet long. Here is a sample of what he lined up.


The rocks out of our rose garden all lined up on the steps.


Canning rings. I was so tired of picking these up. He would line up the rings and stack the lids into "rockets"

I couldn't get this picture to turn but he lined up all of the magnets on the fireplace to make two rockets, a big one and a small one.


All of his rockets and airplanes lined up in the fireplace. Are you seeing a theme here? He really likes rockets and airplanes.




Various random toys.




We've also been doing a ton of canning this year and Collin's favorite job is to write the 10 on the lids for the year. It's on his level to write a line and a circle. Some turn out better than others.

After drawing the 10 on this one he thought that the zero looked like, you guessed it, a rocket. So he grabbed the orange marker and drew the fire in. So funny.
