Battery Operated Thomas

First I must tell you we are potty training. Despite some frustration it’s going quite well. Today Colin sat on the potty twice and just went and then continued on his day. As opposed to him sitting forever waiting for the pee to come…

As a reward for filling up a potty chart with stickers by going pee and poo in the potty Colin got as his reward a battery operated thomas. It’s pretty cool, by far his favorite toy at the moment. It’s got a pretty strong engine, can pull several cars up the hills we have. It can also do some serious damage on mom’s hair.

For the record, I don’t ever recommend allowing a child “chug” his/her battery operated train under your head if you have long hair.

Here’s Thomas right after I ripped him out of my hair:

And this is the rats nest that was my hair after he was gone:

    Do mothers sacrifice for their children? Sometimes without even trying. My sympathy on the assault on your hair. And my compliments on the big developmental project. That was so long ago for us! Probably Judy remembers much more than I do.
