I have mentioned many times how much my son is enthralled with Star Wars.  He really does love it.  His latest mini-obsession about it is "the walkers" (AT-AT's).  He thinks they are the coolest thing ever.  The other day he asked me if he could watch Episode V, The Empire Strikes Back, because "it is the one with the walkers."  

I left him building with blocks and watching his movie while I went to work on something in another room.  When I came back about 20 minutes later, this is what I found . . .

As adorable as he was sleeping there, what really made me smile was when I looked next to him on the couch and could see what he had made . . .

He had recreated the battle scene on Hoth, just like in the movie.  It was pretty darn cute, if I do say so myself.  I especially like how he tried to build the walkers out of blocks :).  That's my silly boy!

    Would I be in trouble if I admitted that my kids have never seen Star Wars? Any of them?

    He is so cute. It takes a lot out of a kid to have a star wars war! Are you guys moving? Do you know where you are going?
    You have been super busy (I just read your last 8 posts)

    I’m sure Kevin is proud of his little Jedi. Or is he an Ewok? They were always my favorite…still are!

    It’s to cute, that he recreated the battle scene. I think it’s fun that he and Kevin have something to bond over.

    That’s so cute! Those kinds of things are what make me so excited for my little boy to get here.
    And thanks for all the tips about dealing with cockroaches! We have used a few of them already and I feel like the situation is much more under control now.
