Argh Ye Buckles!

Time for some day after Christmas fun! The pirate ship has been the toy of choice, and all the pirate talking has been hilarious. Orion’s favorite phrase is, “Argh, ye buckles!” Ron’s guess is that he heard “ye buckos” at some point and this is his version. I tell you the kid is a crack up! And the accessories have made appearances all over the house. Air hockey was a close second favorite, and here we see both toys in action: We also had some interesting discussion over how the air hockey table works. I think Ron must have talked to him about the air coming up through the holes, because later on, he kept asking us if certain things would "catch air". We had no idea what he was talking about until he took them over to the air hockey table. Basically, he was using scientific experimentation to test different objects to see if they would get the same floaty effect as the puck! He didn't have much luck as most things were too heavy, but argh, it made a great battlefield Matey!

Here is the three eyed alien!
Orion is very into asking me to take certain pictures and then looking at them right away. He was delighted with the last one, so that started a bit of a theme....
Stress balls for they eyes? Maybe they relieve tension headaches!
