Stickers...

Xander LOVES stickers, I bought a pad of dino stickers for $1.00 at Target a while back. Talk about hours of enjoyment! On this particular afternoon not only was Xander covered in stickers, but also Mom, Dad AND Bailey! Poor Dog had dinosaurs stuck in his fur for days! haha

Dress up!

Now try to tell me you don't think that is adorable! While Cleaning out Xander's 18 month clothes to trade them out for all of his wonderful new clothes (by the way: THANK YOU STEVEN, KIM, WENDY and JEFF!!!! WE GREATLY APPRECIATE EVERY ITEM!) when I found this Dog Halloween Costume that had been given to us, but never got to use. I thought it'd be fun to keep Xander busy. And let me just say, what a GREAT idea! He ran all around the house for the next hour and a half, looking in every mirror, chasing after the dog and running away from me trying to snap pictures haha Well I got a couple, one is blurry, but it shows the first time Bailey saw him and it was just TOO cute! I think Bailey was not pleased, he's jealous as it is, but now the kid was dressing like him, oh my! hahahaha
NOTE: Not only did this activity keep him busy but it wore him out! Now that's my kind of toddler activity! I have decided to make him a "dress-up" box, full of funny clothes, costumes, hats and glasses, I think it will provide for hours of enjoyment!
