Block Towers

I spend a good portion of my day building towers for Lucas to knock over. Usually I'm lucky if I can stack 4 blocks on top of each other before he knocks it over. But sometimes he gets distracted and I get a big tower going. I've gotten pretty creative.

I had to take both these pictures as fast as I could because in both cases he knocked them over 3 seconds after the picture was taken.

He sounds like a one man demolition crew. I'm impressed you managed to get some of those built as high as you did. Very creative.

I built a really cool inverted pyramid once. I had to lock myself in the baby's room so it wouldn't get knocked over before I was done.

You're such a cool mom. I would just create some boring tower. It's like you're an engineer or something :)

You're such a good mom to entertain Lucas that way. I'm too lazy to pick up the blocks.

Nice engineereing in those structures. Now you need to get Lucas to build towers that you can knock down.

Ahhh... The joys of being a mom and spending hours on projects like interesting block towers.

Kids toys are so much fun to play with. Blocks and legos and shape-o balls. Sometimes is hard to remember to share them with the kids! You are a good mom for letting Lucas play with you. I'm sure he loves knocking down those towers.

Hey- where did you get your blocks? I've been looking for wood blocks like this that are standard size for months.... I've tried amazon, walmart, target, and toys r us..... any other suggestions?
