A vist from Aunt Heather

Heather came over tonight to help us get rid of the turkey leftovers. We all had a super fun time. She dropped off the foam mats that she picked up for me and we pulled out the parachute. Much silliness followed. We played with the 'chute until my shoulder had enough and then Heather turned it into a tent. This is what followed:

I bought something for Big C that he doesn't need

Quick-think of something that Big C doesn't need and see if you can guess what I bought him...did you guess a pair of size 2 pants?

Good guess. You are correct that he already has 3 times more pairs then he needs, but that isn't what I bought him

Did you guess a car seat?? That would be an EXCELLENT guess considering my history with such things. But I didn't buy him a car seat.

Did you guess a bed? That would be a fantastic guess since he currently has two in the house. Bonus points if you guessed the theme...

I BOUGHT HIM A TRAIN BED!!!I know, I know, he doesn't need another bed, but really, how could I resist? I can sell it later for the same amount that I paid for it used and he absolutely loves it! Now we just need to cut a piece of plywood to fit underneath it and support the mattress. It turns out that the one in the car bed is a little too big for it.

Bed construction outtakes:
