Choo Choo!

Collin loves Thomas the Tank Engine-type trains.  Mommy does not love their hefty price tag.  A few weeks ago we were given a generous dose of good luck.  While walking with Jeanne and Audrey A., we noticed a cool train table sitting out in front of a neighbor's house.  Jeanne inquired about it and bam! we had a train table.  As if that wasn't good enough, the former owner asked us if we wanted any trains?  ummm... yes!  He has two boys who have outgrown them.  They gave us a huge bin of tracks and Thomas trains.  Collin was in heaven.  As you can see below, he had to literally lord over his little railroad empire.

The DeMarcos came over for brunch that weekend and Collin got to play with big-boy Dylan who is 3.  We're happy that Dylan felt at home and didn't stand on ceremony by keeping his pants on.
