Life through a lens - Surprise Sunday, Life With Callum

The other day I took part in an interview that was to do with Family Life in Multicultural Britain. One of the questions I got asked was about how Callum shows affection. Now I'm lucky that I do have a very affectionate child (although he does swap like Jekyll and Hyde at times) and Callum shows affection in all forms. What forms? All forms, but I won't spoil it by telling you all, instead over the next few Sundays I'll post some of those ways.

This week:

Mrs Missile

Before school Callum was making Lego models, he made one each for hubby and I and before heading off to school (and without us knowing) he went and put each of our models on our bedside table. Mines called Mrs Missiles because she's married and has missiles and Daz' is called Lazer Eyes. lol. Callum will often do things like this, make a Lego model and put it either on our bedside table/s or somewhere for us.

Lego, you've got to love it! Having a kid gives you the excuse to have plenty of Lego and to have time to sit and build with it. So therapeutic but also a good chance to use your imagination.

Yesterday when hubby's parents came to visit they bought with them Lego goodness, Christmas Lego goodness. OK I know we're still in November but hey if you'd seen them you wouldn't have been able to resist building them then and there.

These little tree baubles were so cute and easy and fun to make and will look lovely on our tree once we get it and put it up. It is just a shame they don't have any more characters to build, a Rudolph would have been cute.

Ho Ho Ho

I come bearing gifts

Next we built these 1. 2. 3. tree ornaments although I think they would be just as nice on our mantelpiece.

O Christmas Tree

Lego the Snowman

And when 1st December hits? Well we've got this! Now that looks fun!

There are also more Christmas Lego items you can get, soooo tempting...
