Gallant Knight and His Trusty Steed

As I work throughout the days this week, Ramsey plays in the background, doing who-knows-what.  (Mom got snowed in and it's a short week, so I decided I could handle watching my little curtain-climbing rugrat all alone.)  Typically, he's been behaving himself, playing his Kindle, battling with his Star Wars guys..... and tearing all of the pillows and cushions off of the couch and love seat (guess that isn't really "behaving himself", but he's having fun, so... so what!).  Oh yes, and dog food.... leaving little piles of dog food all over the house for his furry buddy.   So much for the notion of a clean house!

While desperately trying to focus on a project I am working on, I heard him laughing his tushie off and making verbal "jabbing" noises.   I look up and I see my gallant white knight on his strong trusty steed:

In his left hand, he has his Minecraft sword/pick axe and is saddled-up on Riggs as if they were going into battle.  

I walked around to the other side of the room to get a better glimpse.

He soon ditched his sword and found the bare cardboard wrapping paper rolls that we halved for him to use as less-destructive light sabers.

He waved them around wildly and wanted Riggsy to "giddy up".

The cuteness is a definite distraction from work, but I'm still being quite productive.  It's a welcomed distraction.  :-)
