wir können auch anders, or it's not all legos and lornas around here


Zoob is fun!

I am king of Zoob and lord of all the Zoob creatures.


Zoob Bug

I think this one started off as Zoob DNA, but after all the cursing that was involved in daddy's constructing the Zoob Rex (which was so unstable that the boys weren't allowed to touch it after he'd put it together), the boys decided they'd have just as much fun with a Zoob centipede.

And there's some fun waiting for mommy too, thanks to Kristin, who apparently lives where folks need a lot of powdered beverage mix. She heard me complaining that my local stores only have like two flavors of Kool-Aid and sent me a "few" packets and some KnitPicks dye-your-own yarn to play with. Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!


look, she even included rubber gloves!

This is going to be a fun week.

My kids recently got Zoobs and I think I almost like playing with them more than they do!

Ooohhhhh fun with Kool-Aid!

Are you going to play the backyard fieldtrip???

Can't wait to see what great color combination you come up with! Have fun!
And your boys - they are just the greatest! I just love checking in to see what neat things they have done! I love the crown!

the zoobs look like fun! have your boys discovered magnetix yet? these things are so addictive, my hubby actually bought a set for himself and took it to his office!! LOL

Zoobs are cool. They are also hard to find. We had a problem in that ours started breaking. It got so frustrating that we ended up tossing them. Too bad, because they were great. We now do K'Nex and Magnetix (in addition to the Legos, of course).

as Purim approaches I feel guilty that I don't have the time to knit my son a plaid orange red shirt. I want to dress him up as bob the builder...i've got the pants just could not get a hole of the shirt, looks like i'll be painting a plain white shirt with some acrylic...
