Wooden Trains

Did I mention that Harry likes trains? He made this one yesterday. No help from anyone:

Wooden Train

By the way, he'll be four next month.

Last night, Harry and I looked at some steam powered robots some one had made.

He really liked the hybrid of a steam locomotive and an RC centipede. I liked them all. Genius!

Harry wanted to know if we could make these. I said yes, but -- looking at the massive complexity of it all -- definitely not tomorrow.

"Can we do it tonight?"

He's a cutie.

Too true.

Harry is also a Thomas freak (in the nicest sense, of course) and a fan of Bob The Builder. (I've found BTB a bit more entertaining now that Greg Proops does the voice of Bob.)

Edaville Railroad is located ~45 minutes away, in Carver, Mass. They do Thomas days, too.

The last time we were there, Harry totally focused in on the Thomas play table they had set up -- which is why I build the one in the upper right corners of the photos -- and the life-sized deisel train he got to look at close up.

T'cha. All we had were creepy clowns.

(Shudder.)
