The Fort

About a month ago Jacob wanted to make a fort in the living room. Those of you that have been to our house know that our living room isn’t really set up very well for a fort but we managed. (I remember when I was a kid my siblings and I would always make forts in the living and family room.) We don’t have a lot of stuff on our end tables to hold the blankets up because Little Miss MaKena doesn’t leave anything alone! But Jacob and I managed to build a little fort. I wouldn’t let him put a blanket over the top because I knew MaKena wouldn’t like that and he really wanted her to play in the fort with him. So we put a bunch of her toys in there so she wouldn’t get bored. But she eventually got tired of be confined to the small area and started to rip his fort apart. By that time Jacob was done playing in it anyway so we took it down. But not before I got some cute pictures of the two of them in their very first fort. I’m sure we’ll have many more forts in the years to come!










This was before Jacob built his fort. He was watching a movie and MaKena decided to join him. I couldn’t resist taking the picture. How cute are they?!

The view from the back!
The kids in the fort. Notice all of MaKena’s toys!!
Playing so nice in the fort!
Jacob really enjoyed playing with MaKena in the fort. Can you tell by his big smile!
