Chug chugga!

We got this gift to Ethan, for Christmas. Those that know me know that I do not wait. Ethan saw the box as it came in and Larry had no idea it was coming so he didn't know to hide it. Right now Ethan is obsessed with trains. When I say obsessed, I mean like in a crazy maybe needs to be committed kind of way. He has to sleep with all three rubber trains, wakes up and wants ALL his trains (which isn't that many, but his babysitter, Becky gave him a train set for his birthday).


This train has tracks that can be added and it's battery charged. For those concerned, yes, there is a very loud and obnoxious whistle.

Every morning since we got it, it's about the train - living and breathing this train. He eats on it, sits watching TV on it, and lays on it. This is the best present he's ever received in his whole life!

My oldest was totally into trains too! Now he just thinks they're for babies! All that money, wasted! If only he had given the second one a chance to love them too if might have paid off.

That is too cool. But how are you ever going to top that gift? You'll have to get him a pony next.

Holy Cow, Tor! Remember the train we had like that when we were little? We used to bring it out on the drive way and charge kids to ride it, remember? Wow! That brings back memories!

Tovvvvva! What's up? So good to get a Christmas card from you and it's especially nice now that I've found yours and Tami's blogs! You guys are the best. We have such good memories of your family as our favorite next door neighbors ever! Luff luff! p.s. If you find some kind of a children's therapist that helps small children who are obsessed with trains...Lemme know. I think Zacky (my 4 year old grandbuddy) might need to see one!
