Restaurant Surgery

Bruce has been playing the surgery game with the boys since they were tiny. They love the game — he basically pretends he’s doing surgery on one of them while the other one assists. There’s lots of pretend sawing, grabbing, sewing and poking with needles. And lots of giggles.

Last night we decided to take advantage of Neighborhood Night at La Grande Orange and go out for dinner, but the boys were right in the middle of the surgery game when we were trying to leave the house. Apparently, Finn’s Squirrelly and Penguiny were in desperate need of some emergency surgery. So, of course, we brought them with us and continued the game at the restaurant.

We had the added bonus of the Wikki Stix they give the kids there; Bruce and the boys made a host of tools for the surgery.

And, thankfully, it looks like Squirrelly and Penquiny are going to make it.

I also caught this very sweet picture of Finn snuggling up to Bruce while we waited for our food to come. What a sweetheart he is.
