Legos and I don't mix




I had my niece and nephew over today to play with Lilly. We stopped by Target to get a few things. My nephew is OBSSESSED with Star Wars. He talked me into buying him this legos star wars. When we got home he wanted me to put it together. When I agreed to buy it I had visions of his parents dealing with it. But of course I could not say no. I thought I can whip this together in about 10 minutes and then fold my load of laundry. 55 minutes later I'm done. For some reason they accidently put 2 extra pieces in his box. Those manufactures should really be aware of those kind of mistakes. Hey, I did my best. That should count for something.

I am so with you on this one. My kids love Legos but they know not to ask me...it's totally Ian's area. Actually Ben has gotten quite good at putting them together himself. And Max assembled a Bionicle the other day...so I guess they've gotten used to the fact that I am Lego retarded.

I am completely "lego retarded" as Sheri put it. I don't even WANT to TRY and help my nephew who is OBSESSED with all things Legos and Star Wars including Star Wars Legos and the Star Wars Lego computer game. I am lego and anything "spatial relation-ish-like" challenged...hahaha
