Trains, Trains, Coo Coo's

Okay, I know I talk about trains a lot but they do dominate our lives at the moment. In fact, my dad is on the way to Toy's'us as I type this to buy Vince a train table with all the bells and whitsles. I asked him if he wanted to wait until Christmas to give it to Vince and he responded, "why, he doesn't know Christmas". I tend to agree as I am eager for Vince to have a nicer train table (versus our coffee tables).

This video shows Vince in action at my parents house. He plays with these trains most of the time he is there. The video shows the different emotions Vince goes through... our favorite is when something goes wrong like a train gets derailed... he responds... "ooohhh nooooeee". He also says that when he is watching football and someone gets tackled. It's our favorite response from him.


While on the subject of coo coo's (it's sad that we talk in his language, I have found myself refering to nana's [bananas] on more than one occasion when I am speaking to adults)... here's a picture from last night at Toys'r'us when we were checking out the table my dad wanted to buy. This one isn't it, but Vince sure didn't like it when we made him leave the store. He let us know over and over that he was dissatisfied.

HALLOWEEN

I didn't get to spend Vince's 2nd Halloween with him since I went with David to NY for his marathon. Not being with him sure didn't stop him from dressing up 3 days in a row! Thursday, he had a Halloween party and parade at his school. Grandma and Grandpa showed up to watch! I'm so surprised he has the hat piece on in all these pics! He sure didn't like it when I dressed him up! Thanks to my friend Cassel for letting us borrow this costume!


Friday Vince went to my sister, Jessica's, office and trick or treated at their cubes. He's so funny, my mom said he was picking out the candy he wanted, mostly lolipops. That's mostly what he's been introduced to so he likes them!

Saturday was the real trick or treating day! Vince and my mom dressed up one last time and went trick or treating. They also had fun answering the door for other fellow trick or treaters. My mom said Vince started getting lazy and didn't want to answer the door anymore!



This last picture is of Vince and his coo coo's at my mom's house. He can play with these all day long, he's so in love with trains. He watches Thomas movies and plays and plays around the train tracks. When he got sick a few weeks ago we felt so bad for him so we bought coo coo's for the house too. He can't get enough!
