Choo Choo Season

It's been the season of choo choos for the boys (including cats) - and the train set we've had under the tree continues to be a main focus each day from the time the boys wake up in the morning, until the time they go to bed at night. We've had to tell them that the choo choo needs to go to bed at night too, and let them help us put it to sleep by laying it down on its side under the tree. Otherwise we'd never get them to part with it and go upstairs to bed. Even as we're laying them down to sleep in their cribs and leaving the room, they still look up and ask a few more times, "choo choo?" and we have to remind them about the sleeping train under the tree.

Saturday we took the boys to ride the mall choo choo and they were so excited! They went once with mommy and once with daddy...and they would have went all night if we let them! Oliver kept reciting the colors of the different train cars on drive home, and also in his crib as he was going to sleep. He's so cute with colors lately now that he's got all of the major ones down (red, yellow, blue, green, purple, pink, orange) - sometimes we'll find him just sitting with a toy reciting all the different colors to himself!
