Megablocks and Movies


A couple of weeks ago, my friend Mandy came to visit Sydney and I.  Mandy and I were co-workers at Mackenzie Financial, where I worked right up until I had Syd.  It had been a long time since we'd seen each other and it was really fun to reconnect and catch up on what she's been up to over the past couple of years and for her to have the chance to play with Syd.

Mandy is very young at heart and fun loving.  She loves children, Sydney could sense her sincerity immediately and warmed up to her very quickly!  It didn't hurt that Mandy came to the door with a huge bag of Megablocks for Sydney.  What a great gift that was!  We spent the better part of our visit building towers together with Sydney and smashing them down, only to start all over again.  We've been having tons of fun with these giant lego-like blocks, it's a great gift for this age!  They have been a great addition to our ever-growing playroom which is coming together in our basement!



Mandy also had been clearing out all of her old kid's movies and passed along a bundle to us for Sydney to enjoy.  There were some great classics in the bag of movies, it will be fun to watch them again and for the first time with Syd.


It was a lovely visit and so kind of Mandy to bring some special things for Sydney!
