Legos and Apple Pie

That's what we did today...play with big boy Legos and make apple pie.

Although Joey is still enjoying his Duplo Legos, he's also very into the 'big boy (quatro I think) Legos now. We got out a huge bin of loose pieces and mixed sets that I'd picked up at a yard sale and been storing in the attic. With some of the Christmas stuff put away, there was even room for the used mini Lego table too. Joey really had fun dumping the 1000+ pieces and searching for treasure. Me too!

The boys and I made two apple pies. I was pleased that Joey was able to peel an entire apple by himself. He stuck with it a long time. I peeled the rest while he worked on that one! Boy did we eat a lot of apples along the way too;-) The pie is from a Pillsbury cookbook and is essentially apples, cinnamon, sugar and flour stirred together and put in pie shells with a streusel topping that's made out of cinnamon, brown sugar, flour, and butter...lots of butter. YUM!
