Ben 10

The boys and I started our morning a lot earlier than I wanted. I tried to get them to be a little lazy for a while but they were not having it. Lane was crawling around every where and I just knew he was going to fall off the bed. Then he did. Right on his head. He didn't even cry. In fact after the shock of it...he started laughing! What is it with boys? We all got ready and then took Logan to school. Lane and I were off to Walmart. That's always an adventure with Lane these days. He's so friendly and "talks" with everyone. So I'm always getting stopped because people are talking back to Lane. He will randomly wave at people too. Hopefully it brightens their day. I don't see how it couldn't. I switched out Logan's Ben 10 shoes and then headed to the toy department. Lane had gotten two of the same toys for Christmas so we were switching that and then Grandmother had sent Logan $20 for his birthday. He had instructed me that he wanted Ben 10 stuff! I picked out an action figure of one of his favorite characters, Swampfire, and a Ben 10 long sleeve shirt. Lane picked out a vacuum cleaner. Well I guess I kind of helped. It's really cute though and Lane is always following me around when I'm vacuuming!

I had a staff meeting at work today so Heather watched Lane for me while I went to that. On my way to get the boys I called Amy back, she had called while I was in the meeting, and she invited us to go eat KFC with her and the kids. Logan Joshua wanted to see Mr. Potter! As if they hadn't just seen each other last night and probably ran into each other at school! So we all met up and enjoyed some dinner.

When we got home Logan came straight in to find his new stuff. He was so excited. He has never been into something the way he is with Ben 10. Not sure why he loves it so much! He put the shoes on and then the shirt. Then of course had to get his Ben 10 watch which he has worn everyday since he got it. I just had to take a picture. Here he is holding Swampfire.

His Ben 10 shoes came with the first season of Ben 10 so he went straight to the play room to watch his new shows. Lane and I hung out downstairs. He played with his vacuum. Mostly just making it make noise. I haven't got him to walk behind it yet. He stayed up later than I thought he would but now he's sleeping away. Logan is back down here with me but of course is still dressed in full Ben 10 gear...including shoes...playing with his action figures and pretending to fight the imaginary bad guys! I'm watching Flashpoint...yes Aaron it comes on again now and it's soooo good!

This a picture from a few days ago. I found it when I was getting that other picture off my camera. I just love the look on Lane's face. Logan was chasing him around. They were having so much fun!
