Buying His Own Toy

Oh, happy day! Xander saved $10 over the course of six or so weeks (some of that earned by doing odd jobs around the house) so that he could buy a Pharaoh's Quest Lego set. We all went to Target to see him make his saved-for purchase. He was excited the whole time, but by the time we got to the cash register, he was jumping up and down.

Jumping up, he said, "Hi!" to the Target associate. They had a bit of a conversation about the product.

We explained that he had been saving his money for a while to buy this toy. At this point, Xander was literally shaking.

Here are a couple of pictures from when we got home:

 

Meanwhile, Nick was eating (of course), playing with our Dinosaur Train printables, and gathering up his beloved Winnie the Pooh stuffed animals. He loves them.

He is not OVERLY nurturing with them, though:
