Sleepover, Bugs, Hammers & Marbles

Last weekend we had my cousin Connor over for a sleepover!  I've been wanting to have him over for a sleepover for a long time now.  We had such a great time!  We had a pizza party and movie night with popcorn! 
Daddy made a movie nest for us.  Even my baby brother, Max, joined us for part of the movie.
Max went to bed and Connor and I finished the movie - it was Fox and the Hound 2.  I love, love, love getting to have my cousin Connor over!
The other day we had Brady and his sister, Charlotte, over and Mommy made bug sandwiches for us boys.  She got the idea from her cousin Sarah in Chicago.  Aren't these funny?
 Brady and I weren't quite sure what to think at first.  (Yes, I was having a jammie day.)
 Dismantling the bugs
 Mommy and I also did a hammering project, I had the most fun hammering nails into holes in this box.
 It takes a lot of concentration.
I wanted to do some painting with my feet, so afterward, Mommy put my feet in the sink to wash them off and was telling me how I used to take baths in the sink when I was a baby.  I wanted to see if I still fit.  Look, Mommy, I do still fit!
One of Max's favorite things to do is put these beads on.  At least a few times a day, he will get these necklaces and put on as many as he can find.  He's so funny!
Today we had a really cool Mommy Adventure to the Marble Factory in Bonner Springs.  We tried to go last Friday and got all the way out there (in a blizzard practically) and they were closed.  I've been counting down the days all week til I got to go.  It was awesome!  It was a big toy store and they made marbles and we got to watch a demonstration.  They used hot fire and it was neat.
After the demo and looking around, I got to fill a tube with my very own marbles that I picked from this wall.  There was a GIANT wall full of marbles of all different colors.  I have not put the marbles down since I got home, but I have to be very careful and only play with them with Mommy and Daddy when Max is asleep because he could choke on them.
Me, my buddy Cooper and my other buddy Brady with our marbles!
