Tunnels anyone...

For those of you who don't know, Ryan is obsessed with trains. To take it a step further, he is obsess with trains going through tunnels. He likes to make tunnels out of anything we have available. In the picture below he has used 2 chairs, 2 stools, 1 leap frog learning table, one Little Tikes Tool Bench, and Grand Central Station of course. That's 7 tunnels, this time I think I put my foot down after he wanted it to go under the couch too.



For a long time, Casey was a great source of stress for Ryan when it came to trains. Ryan liked to build the train track while Casey liked to destroy it. I'm sure that Ryan is relieved that Casey has taken a liking to pushing trains instead of destroying track, although Casey does like to push anything that has wheels on the track even if it doesn't quite fit which does frustrate Ryan and says "Casey, it doesn't fit."



Ryan's favorite thing is to get both of our battery operated trains and have them run on the track at the same time, basically until the batteries run out. Now he only gets one with batteries at a time, which sometimes causes contention, but that's the way it goes.


Both of the remotes still make noise which is great because Casey thinks that he's controlling the train when it's really Ryan, everyone wins, especially Mom!
